Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? all
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? play the game
What happens when the bug occurs? There are 2 problem in world selection UI; [1]. The round icon of each town is too large enough to fit in screen. Up-down scroll bar is shown. [2]. There's no way to sort/filter the world order.
What do you expect to see? [1]. Nowadays, AAA+ gamers use at least 1920x1080 screen. Current world UI design doesn't fit in the screen. You could make each town icons smaller to fit all 8 towns into 1920x1080 screen without scroll bar. [2]. I want to change the order of the towns, say Windenburg first, Magnolia 2nd, and so on.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

And each time a new world is added they should just keep making them smaller and smaller?

Don't you think current world icon is way too big, or the space between upper world and lower world is too wide?
Here. I make a sample UI. (1920x1080)
I'm not a designer and it's just a concept images.
Before (current default);

After (just a concept; I'm not a designer);
1 = https://share.riseup.net/#bCNCajrVL_PcgiEHBN9nKA
2 = https://share.riseup.net/#Ub2TapBtglYMvWcA97_N3A
P.S. image will be deleted by the image hosting provider after week, so take a look soon...
- changed round icon size to 70%.
- enough to fit more worlds.
1 = world selection menu
2 = when the player click the world,
a. dark the screen,
b. show clean plumbob on the selected world,
c. show the world art in center with title and household count.
and,
if the player click the world icon again, go to the world.
if the player click black(dark) area, go back to world selection.
If you have better idea, I would like to see it.

No, but then I also run at a higher resolution than 1920.
Most serious gamers now a days go for WQHD or 4K resolution.
