No ability to reduce rolling cache size

2024 - Steam for PC

  1. Description of the issue:

Created a rolling cache that was too large, need to reduce the size, the UI won’t allow it. No ‘clear cache’ or ‘reduce cache’ option available.

same, no reduce option is so unacceptable

This is by design, and not a bug.
You could enter a wishlist request for this to be changed in the sim.

How is it not a bug that you can set a large rolling cache, but cannot go back to a smaller one?
There is no warning that whatever number you enter cannot be changed to a smaller value. So either that should be a pop up clearly stating that, or they should add the obvious option to allow the reduction in size.

You could wipe the save file and uninstall the sim. Worked for me.

(I had so little progress a wipe and restart was no issue and I made the rolling cache a good deal smaller this time. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: )

I am having the same issue and also I put it on a 2nd drive now will the first one stick around?

U can delete the second one yourself - it will not be removed by the game.
