[SalixCat]

Official blog update here: https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-mobile/news/date-night-update

Latest SimsTV episode:

An update for The Sims Mobile will be released in the next hours. 

We don't know the exact time as updates can take some time to propagate to all servers and countries.

Important: You won't see the STS "Dessert for two" until you have downloaded the update. 

New things in this update:

Day and Night Cycle (in home lots)

• Can be set to always day, always night or on day/night cycle in settings. You decide!

 

Lights have lighting (in home lots)

• We can now tap on lights to turn them off and on.
• We can also:
  • turn specific lights on or off.
  • set lights to automatic (so they turn off/on if it’s day/night).
  • turn all lights on or off from any light.

Transparent windows

• Speaks for itself!

 

New premium house lot: 1 Landgraab Avenue

• It's a new lot in Briny Heights, 50x30 lot size up from regular 30x30 lot.
• Unlocked for simoleons at player level 18. Price does not scale depending on how many lots are purchased,
• Costs a fixed price of 500,000 simoleons.
• Fixed 7days wait timer for simoleon purchase.
• Instant buy costs 1000 Simcash.
• Comes with a fountain that can be stored and used in other lots.
• However, the fountain outside the lot is permanently there.

 

Change in Sweet Treat Showdown: All players can now watch ads in STS via Knife Block

• Notice that each player gets a certain number of opportunities to watch ads every day. The ads in STS are from the same pool of daily ads. So, save and prioritize watching ads for when you most need them!
• Get extra rewards in your prize basket.
• Ads can also give extra chance towards that round.
• You can watch 1 ad per round.

 

Bug fix: Tinkerer, Attuned and Athetic traits heirlooms available

These three heirlooms will now appear randomly in the store, retirements chests and the 25 purple ticket random boxes.

Thanks to EA Game Changers and Firemonkeys for the information.

@SalixCat would I still be able to use the ad for the home event to get an extra token?

It's a great update, I love the day/night cycle but I don't like that the districts still have the clock totally frozen .... I would have preferred the whole game to have the day/night cycle.

But everything else is WOW. It was a good job..

[SalixCat]

@givememore86 I believe so. Only don't use all your ads before doing the bake offs.

@FreezerSimme too, I was a little disappointed when I saw that the districts were exactly like before the update

I am confident and hope that this change will be made gradually in future updates❤️
