The Toy Box meter can help you determine the following:

System Performance

• Indicates how hard the console is working
• Adding multiple items in quick succession or working in split-screen affects this the most
• You can still use the Editor until the system can recover

Enemies/Townspeople

• Indicates and limits the number of townspeople or enemies that can be placed in the Toy Box
• When this meter is full you can’t add further enemies
• You can still place other toys in the Toy Box

Graphical Memory

• Indicates how much graphical memory is being used
• Affected by a large number of different items in the Toy Box, mostly detailed buildings and toys with moving parts
• When this fills up, you can only place more of the same items that are already in the Toy Box

System Memory

• Indicates how full the Toy Box is
• Won’t generally fill up before a different gauge stops you from building
