HOME MAINTENANCE If you have the key to your house in your backpack and double click the door, this will refresh the your house and all of it contents. Houses generally will decay(delete themselves) if they have not been refreshed within 9-14 days. The range is wide depending on where your house is placed. Some areas have elements that put more stress on your house and will cause it to decay at a faster rate. It is also advised that you not try and refresh your house once every nine days. It is possible that you may try and refresh your house before a server goes down for maintenance or for any other unexpected reasons. If this occurs, the server may not back up the information that the house was refreshed and when you next log in, the house may have decayed. For this reason, we suggest refreshing your house at least once every two days if your schedule will permit. Trash Collection A portion of house maintenance is throwing out the unwanted trash. To place a trash container in your home say, "I wish to place a trash barrel" Adding items to a trash can past the container limit will cause the instant deletion of everything in the trash can. If you do not fill the container limit, the items will delete themselves within 5 minutes of time that the last item was placed in the trash.
