We can build L shapes, and I shapes, and U shapes, and O shapes, and moats! without having to do that ctrl-click-click thing. :D

This is cool.

I've seen some pics with violet/dark blue/animals in the "wall" of the poll. How am I supposed to obtain that???

That's wallpaper. Now you can put wallpaper on your swimmingpool wals. :)

just wandering, I too, just realized there's a quarter pie thing under pool tool, which is wonderful, why aren't that made into wall as well? I wander why they added a hexagon shape wall tool instead of a circular one ... :blink: sigh as if we don't already know how to make hexagon...

Thanks for the tips, you guys. I hardly do anything with pools. Somehow my yards are always too small for decent pools. I'm not addicted to the kaching or motherlode cheat so I use the money on decorating inside.

Makes note to try some pools later...!

Yeah, by the way, has anyone else realized how much ridiculously more expensive the curved pieces are?! I don't understand why a single curve should cost so damn much! Is this a mistake maxis made, or do they think only rich people have round (or rounded-edged) pools? o.O ...

Yeah, I think Maxis figures that most middle-class people have rectangular pools.

ya i was wondering that as well...or atleast have more objects that can go on diagonally at least that would be somthing if your always stuck with a hexagon
