The Sims 4 Planting Seeds of Enchantment Patch Notes
1. Exciting New Build Features: Glass Walls and Planting Roofs
The standout feature of this update is the introduction of glass walls and the ability to plant vegetation on roofs. For the first time, players can enhance their homes with bushes, grass, and flowers directly on rooftops. The new glass walls allow for complete transparency, making it easier to design modern homes or lush greenhouses without relying on large windows.
2. Improved Inventory Management
One of the key gameplay enhancements in this update focuses on inventory management. You can now categorize items in your Sim’s personal inventory, fridges, and bookcases by New, Price, Crafted Quality, and Rarity. Spoiled foods are also now easily recognizable with a red background, appearing in a separate stack for easy disposal.
3. Notebook and Collections Updates
The in-game Notebook and Collections log have received thoughtful changes as well. The Notebook now features discovery badges for unseen resources and new category pages to streamline access to your Sim’s stats. Similarly, the Collections log now allows players to sort items by Rarity, Name, and other filters, helping you keep track of collectibles effortlessly. Did you know that finding a new collectible now animates your inventory icon? This makes it simple to know when you’ve unearthed something new while skilling or exploring.
