Simmington - A Tiny, Artificial Island City; Simplanet's Last Hope!

Things weren't going well on Simplanet. Actions of the population had rendered much of the land uninhabitable. Thus, a last ditch effort to create livable spaces was made - self contained, man-made islands with all the features needed to attempt to re-populate the world. Simmington was the first artificial island - a beautiful city with mostly modern architecture and some traditional buildings to help the residents honor their past. Unfortunately, a criminal element managed somehow to bribe their way in marring a small section of the city. Will you help the other residents of Simmington drive out the criminals or join in their nefarious deeds?
Simmington is a tiny map set as a city with Bridgeport water and skies. It is oriented so that the sun rises over the city center. There are no suburbs here; only city houses and apartments! All lots have street addresses. Simmington has a swimmable and fishable sea inlet with waterfall. It is NOT populated.

Included are several fog emitter effects on lots so - as with all custom worlds - you'll have to open the world, save the world, and then play the saved version to enjoy the effects.

There is no custom content in Simmington. World was checked with CUSTARD.

So sorry, I discovered one Store item on the City Center lot - the "Maid o' Meter" parking meter. It was part of the free "Fiesta Urban Streetscape" set and appears to no longer be available so I cannot provide a link. Please let me know if it causes any issues and I will re-upload the lot without the parking meter.

Simmington requires all expansions through Pets (World Adventures, Ambitions, Late Night, Generations, and Pets). It may work without some expansions but could look different. Late Night is definitely required for bars, subways, street lights, and apartments. The Hanging Library, Palm Futuristic Lounge, and Rudolph's Second Hand Emporium use items from the HEL stuff pack. Some lots were noted to use Fast Lane items. However, I don't have Fast Lane so items were replaced by proxies. Playability of lots has not been affected.

Gem, metal, seed, snake, butterfly, small bird, beetle, lizard, turtle, rodent, and fishing spawners are included in logical places. The unicorn spawns at Research Center Robo Reservoir. Supernatural's Weather Gnome spawns in the middle of Simmington City Center but can easily be moved to in front of the Bistro. See picture in Comment for Simmington City Center.

Simmington has 4 layers: Lots, Objects, Plants Trees, and Spawners Effects.

The camera cannot route near the edges of the map by the waterfall. Sims cannot route through flowerbeds/plantings or near the waterfall.

Only in-game terrain paints were used so that players can alter lots if they want to. Simmington is contained in one "chunk". A total of 15 terrain textures were used in Simmington so there are more than 8 textures per chunk. However, this does not seem to affect world performance.

Simmington features some MTS lots - all used with permission and/or according to the creator's policies. Lots were altered only to remove any CC or as necessary to blend with the world. Items were added to a few lots to improve the playability of the world. Changes are noted with the credits.
