Argh -- I just started playing VF this week, and today I am being sent away for a month b/c of work!

Is there any way to stop or pause time? I can't find any way to do so. Help!

If I can't pause/stop, is it allowable to move my game onto my laptop so I can at least check in w/ them once a day?

Any help would be MOST appreciated.

Thanks for all the fun -- Ella

Ella, if you go to the main menu, then click on options, you should see "Pause Game" with "Yes" and "No" boxes. Click Yes to make the orange box appear there and your game will be paused (Click no to Un-Pause the game)

There's also another way to pause (and un-pause) VF and that's to press the spacebar (Once to pause, once more to un-pause) I hope this helps!

Oh -- You rock! Thanks. I must've completely missed that the three times I looked at the options. I'm an idiot!

I was sure you guys wouldn't leave that very important button off this game. Thanks again, and we're all waving at you.

Don't forget that you have to do that (pause)for EACH family if you are playing more then 1 family.
