Hi babylocks. Sorry to hear that you are having trouble with your game. Is it Virtual Families 2 or the original Virtual Families? My response below assumes that it's VF2. smile

1. Regarding the mother who won't work, what is her profession? Does she have any dislikes? What (if any) career upgrades are in the office?

2. Yes, sometimes the peeps go in the toilet together.

3. The weather conditions are random. It snows in my game too and I love in sunny California. LOL! You can shut down the game and then reopen it and the snow will be gone. There are also fun bottles of different weather sometimes available in the Flea Market. smile

Hi babylocks. Your little person is at the Apprentice level in her career/profession but her profession is not Apprentice. smile Her profession is listed directly above that. I've attached a screenshot to illustrate it.

In order to move any furniture you need to first open the Decor/Decorate Tray. Just click the Decorate Tab (or the Decor button). Then you'll be able to:
  • Move the furniture around the house.
  • Place furniture back into the Decor Tray to save for later.
  • Drag unwanted furniture outside the gate to sell it.
I hope this helps... and welcome back! laugh

That's probably normal, depending upon what his salary is now. Unlike the original Virtual Families game, VF2 doesn't display fractional money amounts, so he would have to earn almost a full coin on a work cycle before you will see the bank amount change. When an adult's salary is low (e.g. less than 100), you may not see an increase in the bank balance until they have completed several work cycles. You will see the bank change much more often at the higher career levels.

That's perfectly OK, especially when your little persons are at the start of their careers, and don't earn much money. Each time they complete a work cycle they will get paid a small fraction of their daily wage as a bonus. I'm not sure, but I think it's 1%. Therefore if they are only earning something like 50 coins a day, they would get a bonus of half a coin. Since the bank shows only whole numbers, the fraction is carried forward until they complete a work cycle which takes them up to a whole coin, which then shows in your bank.

The daily wages are paid in (I think) hourly payments. Although you might hear a 'ching' noise there isn't any message to let you know it has been paid.

NOTE TO SELF: Must type faster, Barbara beat me to it. smile

Yes, when you purchase coins from the Coins and More section, your bank account balance will be increased by the number of coins shown in the item you buy. There are other items in there that permanently lower the cost of food and medicine, and increase the number and value of collectibles that appear in the yard.

Our games don't support syncing between devices. There are different opinions about that, but we have chosen to have one family per device. Many people like having different families when they have multiple devices, and syncing families between devices would require an Internet connection in order to play. We think that's an inconvenience that many people would rather avoid. smile
