I can only find very old threads and none offer any help or resolution. Not sure if it is a coincidence or not, but after downloading tiny Living the super speed does not work and the game is significantly slower. I waited 24h and tried to play again and the same issue is occurring.  Any help??

Hey, 

I checked again and there was no one on the lot, or anything that could explain it. So I checked another household and the speed works there. Went back to the household I was using and it works again! Also it is hard to say if it works when they work as they all have careers I either go to work with them or they WFH.

Maybe going in and playing with a different household within the same game helped? But thanks!

@parkwoodpeewee is there no one else on the lot that could account for it not kicking in ? Does it kick in when your Sim goes to work ?

Could you test a different house to see if the same happens ?

@parkwoodpeewee Travelling somewhere or switching households can often fix stuff so yeah, it's possible that fixed it.

Thank you so much! I had the same problem and I have spent so long trying to figure it out. Never would have thought of that!

@DrFoxTails47 I had the exact same issue. I would go to work and sleep and could only use x1 speed. So glad this worked for me!
