Life is A Sim is a Scam (case closed)

[Wither_King]

Life is a sim is a scam of a achievement, I have 44 hours and still havent got it, it ridiculous, Im having to inflate my game time with 5 hour afk sessions, its the last achievement before I 100%, is this normal? or am I just my usual unlucky self?

UPDATE:
For the achievement you just need to run the game for 24 consecutive hours, thanks to everyone who commented. So now I have 100% the game :)

whats that achievement for?

It's 24 hours straight not on and off. You have to keep Worldbox open for 24 hours without closing

I find it inconceivably hard to believe that, I have a friend who has the achievement, and I know for a fact he did not leave Worldbox open for 24 hours straight

It's actually pretty healthy to keep a PC running 24/7, especially with low power settings.

Its not healthy for my power bill

unless worldbox is a CPU/GPU and resource hog your average PC is basically ideling around if it runs.

there are household appliances that you naturally want running 24/7 year-round that draw more power than a PC with a pixelated screensaver.

so, I ran it over night for 24 consecutive hours, and I got the achievement, so case closed I guess, thanks for the help everyone

No leaving it on is better because the electrical surges from turning it on and off constantly for years doesn't get to wear the parts as much.

It's true. I kept my desktop PC on for about 5 years before the motherboard died, and it was an older used model I had bought from a friend. I only turned it off when I was gone from the house for like a day or more.

i'll just throw the basic physical properties of mundane metal into the mixture.

it shrinks when cold and expands when warm...
its not much but it still is stress that causes micro damage over time.

the less a piece of metal has to "work" the happier it will be... just looking at all those tiny solder points and wires that are inside a plain old computer.
