How it works

Police Busts

Now your Sims aren't even safe in the confines of their own homes anymore. At least not if you go overboard with selling or never launder your dirty money.

This is how the additional chance of police busts work:

Picture an empty glass with a tiny hole at the bottom of it.

Whenever your Sim sells a small amount of any drug (ziplock bags, individual pills and so on) it's like you are pouring a bit of water into this glass. If you reach the top so it pours over the cops will show up on your Sims doorstep (or wherever your Sim may be at the time of over pouring). The small hole in the bottom of the glass means that if you wait a bit before selling, the glass will automatically empty itself. If you go overboard and have your Sim sell to a boatload of customers, that tiny hole won't be able to keep up with your frantic glass-filling and the cops will show up.

If you have been selling a lot and want to keep on selling a lot without waiting it out, you got two options.

Option 1) Bribe the Police (Cocaine Dealing lvl 10 reward)
This option will empty the entire glass, but it will cost you 10,000 Simoleons doing so.

Option 2) Launder your Money
You can read up on how Money Laundering works below.

Note that with Police Busts difficulty set to Easy or Off in Settings, the cops won't bust you on your home lot.

Swat Raids

OK! Remember that perfectly pristine glass analogy from 5 seconds ago?
Here is yet another one!

Picture an almost identical empty glass as the one described earlier. But this time. No hole.

Whenever your Sim buys or sells a large amount of any drug (bricks of cocaine, packages of speed, etc.) it's like you are pouring a bit of water into this glass. If you reach the top so it pours over you will have a full blown raid on your hands.

A raid can only occur on your Sims home or owned retail lots.

The sergeant of the raid will take your Sim to jail (much like with a regular bust), the rest of the team will unlock all locked doors on the lot and confiscate as much illegal drugs and paraphernalia they can muster during the time the raid lasts. This includes plants.

Sims who are on any customer list for buying drugs will immediately flee the scene whenever they are in proximity to the Swat Team.

Whenever the raid is over the glass is empty, starting from scratch.

Since this clearly is not a self-draining glass, how can you empty it without being raided?

Option 1) Bribe the Police (Cocaine Dealing lvl 10 reward)
This option will empty the entire glass, but it will cost you 10,000 Simoleons doing so. 

Option 2) Launder your Money
You can read up on how Money Laundering works below.

Note that with Police Busts difficulty set to Off in Settings, the raids won't happen.

Money Laundering

First things first; you need the Get To Work EP for this feature.

Buy a retail lot. Place a computer on said retail lot.
Click on said computer and go to the Money Laundering menu.

Whenever you launder money through the computer, it is like you pick up both those glasses I previously mentioned and pour out a decent amount of water from both of them.

The higher amount you launder, the more you pour out.

Your Sim will receive a 12 hour buff after laundering money, whenever that buff runs out you are free to withdraw your brand spanking new, laundered money through the same computer.

Note that you can only launder 5k, 10k or 25k at a time, and the amount you launder will add up.
As an example: If you launder 25k, then 25k then 10k you can withdraw 60k.

The maximum amount you can keep in your "Simoleon Laundromat" is 200k.

Plants and Curing

Just wanted to touch briefly in on this as well.

The Harvest All should work better than it did previously now. I have still noticed that it might skip a plant or two, but it seems to be working better, so it's not 100% there yet, but a lot better than what it previously was.

I also noticed that Sheltered plants from EA's side of things are supposed to not evolve quickly. Seeing that these are the types of plants that makes sense actually having inside I did some adjustments to that, now it should be way easier to evolve them and get great quality plants.

Other

There is really not much to add here that isn't already explained in the changelog at the top, just read through that and you are good to go!
