### Bug Fixes
#### For Rent

- **Mellowing out Build Mode:** Drawing, deleting, and auto-filling wallpaper in Residential Rentals will stop causing Build Mode slowdown.
- **Mellowing out Evil Landlords:**Taka Soi premade lot rents won’t get into the Billions and force you to stay. Let’s keep it civil. Any incorrect price UI in existing saves should quickly update to normal by the next bills cycle.
- **Mellowing out water usage:** Sims will no longer obsessively excessively autonomously shower when hygiene is not low. Like, you’re clean already, Sim. Stop.
- **FreeRealEstate On cheat will now turn on again:** Cheaters can happily mellow out once more.
