: updated for 1.40
UPDATE 3-5-18: Autonomy lag should (hopefully) be fixed.
This is an update to SimmyTheSim's Simulation Lag Fix to the latest patch.
As per SimmyTheSim's description:
"This mod alters the game's simulation so that sim autonomy does not cause massive simulation lag in instances where there are many autonomy requests.
This should eliminate, or at the very least, alleviate, the following problems:
sims head bobbing, sims doing nothing for a few hours, time slowing down on Speed 3, and time going back to the past."
Differences from the old mod:
COMPARISONS:
Before
After
ISSUES:
Resources
This mod overrides the following python functions:
time_service.TimeService.start
time_service.TimeService.update
It also overrides the following XML values:
03B33DDF!00000000!2BE55516548A9522.time_service.Tuning
03B33DDF!00000000!143F98639E4FDED3.autonomy.autonomy_modes
INSTALLATION
Unzip the mod files into your mods folder. Make sure script mods and custom content is enabled in your game!

Differences from the old mod:
- The MAX_TIME_SLICE_MILLISECONDS variable is now a tunable XML in the latest version
- Only two Python functions are overridden.
COMPARISONS:
Before
After
ISSUES:
- Some head-bobbing activity might still be present, but it should be way less than before
- Times sometimes still rolls back from "ultra speed mode" (when all sims are either out or sleeping). Still trying to figure out how to fix this.

Read the upload description for installation instructions. If nothing else is specified, do the following:
No Extraction Required (Script Mods):

Script mods need to be placed directly in \Mods or one level below that (e.g. \Mods\Scripts) – sub-folders nested any deeper won’t work.
