WA-style travel to any world
It's in testing here: http://www.the-isz.com/nraas/index....ed-2011-sep-06/
He warns that the mod is experimental, and could damage your save-game. He also asks that you report your findings to him.

This is beyond cool, although I can't imagine how chunky a save file that connects several worlds together would be. Has anyone from here tested it out yet? I wonder how it works. I would love to try it out but I can't risk the damage if something happens

Any damage would be isolated to whatever save-file you are playing, none of my style mods can permanently damage the game itself.
Just use the "Save As" to create a testing game, and use that one (though I would suggest backing up your saves, just in case you inadvertently overwrite one).

This is the very reason I haven't been a big fan of this. If it does add huge chunks to the already chunky save file, then I would not recommend using this for a legacy. Unless of course you've got a ton of ram you're just dying to use up and burn.
Other than that, OMGSERIOUSLYYAAAYTWALLANYOUTHEBEST!!!

The base town-file will indeed expand to accommodate more mini-sims (the in-game object that holds portraits and Relationship Panel information for foreign sims).
More foreign sims, more mini-sim data. Not much can be done about that.
As to how much of an impact that will have on game memory usage, I have no idea at the moment.

Wow This really opens up a whole world of possibilities (excuse the expression) :D
Gameplay-wise, Bridgeport and Hidden Springs would both make better travel destinations than they do base worlds, for instance
My game has not been particularly stable lately so I am not sure I'd make a good tester, but I am definitely going to contemplate it, heh

I'm not sure what happens. Will have to add that to my investigate list.
Though I suspect it will populate non-vacation destinations using the base-town approach.
