Dig Sites

[crinrict]

@amberj_90 You need to spend actual time in the neighborhood for them to spawn.

The time for those only progress when you're in these worlds.

Can you test that ?

I'm having the same problem except that my rocks and dig piles are not respawning at all. Once I visit a particular neighborhood and collect all the rocks once, that's it. No more rocks, frog logs, or dig piles if I come back in a day or two and stay on the lot for three or four Sim hours.

I think maybe something is going wrong with the lot resetting itself. In my most recent save, I visited the park in Oasis Springs, grilled a plate of hamburgers and collected all the rocks. The next time I returned to the park, about two Sim days later, the plate of burgers was still there and had not spoiled at all - it still had seven hours until spoiling. The rocks and dig piles had not respawned and the wild plants had not grown any taller. (When I first visited, the wild plants were only beginning to sprout, and they stopped growing at that stage.)

This is happening in multiple neighborhoods in Willow Creek and Oasis Springs. However, the rocks and dig piles and frog logs are respawning overnight in my home neighborhood.

I'm having issues in a new save started after installing SE with the rocks not respawning after digging. In Oasis Springs I have the additional problem that the crystal rocks also produced time capsules, not crystals, and the rocks haven't respawned after sim weeks of play. I've had my sim dig crystal rocks around the Oasis park and near the Johnny Zest trailer. My poor sim collector has only been able to find two crystals and is now into his adulthood stage. I play with long aging so that's a very long time to be looking.

In Sulani there was a crystal rock near the volcano that did produce a crystal but hasn't respawned in sim weeks of play. He also got a crystal recently from The Bluff's lot in Windenburg but so far that crystal rock hasn't respawned either but it hasn't been as long a period since collecting in Oasis Springs and Sulani. I'm about ready to cheat the level for collecting 5 crystals as it is beginning to feel like "the impossible dream", lol.

I haven't paid close enough attention to fossil rocks respawning, or not, since crystals are the current goal. A sim can dig in a dig pile, which I've done out of frustration over the crystal rocks, but it usually results in a question mark thought bubble and plumbing parts

Hi,

I am trying to find all the collections on The sims 4. However, the digging spots and rocks to find crystals have dissapeared. I doesn't matter which world I am in or for how long I am playing on that lot. I have tried to repair the game and deleated cache. However, I can find 2 digging spots just outside my own lot.

Can you guys help me solve it?
