Hi everyone!
I get some complaints regarding double-stairs bug. Actually double-stairs works fine if placed correctly.
I checked every lot before publish and found no problems.
Just a single written complaint in comments 2 years after release, but... well, this is the Sims videogame made by Electronic Arts. So anything can happen.
So I decide to terminate this bug possibility at all.
No more double-stairs in Sim-Tropico.
All stairs are separated now and you have no single chance to get this bug. Actually separated stairs looks a little better and more realistic.
So here is the new edition of Sim-Tropico:

Sim-Tropico RU2 - the Original Russian Edition.
Sim-Tropico EN2 - the English edition.

If you are already playing Sim-Tropico and faced this bug - here are community lots with separated stairs.
You can download these lots separately and add in your current game via Library.

Festival park
Nectary
Gallery
Fitness


Regarding "____ ____" bug in lot names and lot descriptions.
It happen if Cyrillic letters were used in non-Cyrillic version of the game (English, German etc.).
So I removed all Cyrillic letters in Sim-Tropico English version. I hope. If you find this bug somewhere just delite and confirm the lot rename.
Regarding "____ ____" bug in festival lot name. This is different. I renamed this lot a lot of times, everything's correct, but than Russian name of the lot shows up again. No ideas why it happen. I am really sorry for it. If you get it in your game just rename the festival lot in Tropicana Park, as it pointed in this lot description, or in another name you want.
This bug brings you no problems, just looks urgly. Sorry again.

Happy Simming!

Welcome to Sim-Tropico!
This tropical island is the global remake of Sunlit Tides.
This world is best for Pets, Seasons and Island Paradise as well as for play the game with NRaas StoryProgression mods!

Русская версия городка - Sim-Tropico MTS.rar!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

There are 101 lots, including:
38 lots 30х30 with 23 residential and 1 empty;
18 lots 40х40 with 9 residential and 1 empty;
10 lots 50х50 with 4 residential and 1 empty;
6 lots 64х64, and much more:
6 residences with horse stables,
7 beach residences with private yachting,
2 ports,
6 public beaches with bars, sport activities and lifeguard service,
5 dive spots,
8 bars with casino, restaurants and private show.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The Map Size is Large.
If your dog likes hunting or if your sim likes surfing - they will prove it

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

WPID-data was changed.
The game get Sim-Tropico as brand new custom world, which required the full stuff from EA Store SunlitTidesDeluxe Set (with Serenity Retreat) for correct play.
It means that you do need EA Store Sunlit Tides installed before you run Sim-Tropico.
After that you will get in your game both worlds for play, with separated saves for each one.
So this is not replacement. No conflicts with Sunlit Tides saves.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Sunlit Tides INI-files on board.
Sunsets and sunrises in Sim-Tropico are really beautiful... and days and nights too

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Global Layer was cleared.
So Sunlit Tides population was totally delited and Sim-Tropico is unpopulated. For now
Sim-Tropico is waiting for your sims!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

A lot of routing fixes were made.
Actually the entire map was checked carefully, than tested.
Hope no bugs on the map or on the lots now.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Spawn Points were changed.
A lot of spawners of all types from all required EP were added, mostly from WA.
No relic spawners from WA tombs were added, because of no tombs in Sim-Tropico.
Default spawners were totally changed, partly replaced, partly delited, because Sim-Tropico must be rich but not extremely rich

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Happy Simming!
