I officially hate the Beach House. 1. Took longest of the new buildings to build. 2. Takes 4 land. 3. Is worthless for coins and so for leveling it up. 4. I put it off in a corner, since it didn't fit anywhere else, and keep forgetting to tap it and wondering why I'm not at full cps. My city is all mashed together, with roads (but increasingly spare decor) just for spacing behind taller buildings to make seeing where to tap easier. But, I do have sort of "districts" in that my fast food joint, bar, circus, and carnival are all together, and all my "business" stuff is all together, there's a government services district in the center, etc. So I do feel like it has an authentic real city feel to it, as it grew organically as I found things but like buildings are mostly near each other. Maybe at some point I'll try to figure out how to post an image. I once planned to make it more organized, but man, moving buildings around is a chore! The only moving I've done is made space so that my Alter, Secret Hideout, and Lumber Mill are all nicely blended in at the edges of my big forest (don't worry, Altar and Lumber Mill are on opposite sides!). You're not crazy. But I did not notice a correlation with prize quality or know you could start again to change the growth speed. Veeeery interesting observations there....
There is certainly a lot of work that could be done to improve this part of the game. I would like to see a way to mass delete roads/waterways similar to how you can mass add them. It would also be nice to be able to select an area of tiles and move them all at once.
Some glitches Hi. I'm new. I'm afraid I haven't read through all of this thread, but I wanted to share some of the bugs and glitches (?) I've experienced since the last update to Pixel People. I've created a gallery on imgur to illustrate what I mean. Does anyone know how to deal with any of these? I'd settle for some sympathy, too. The Town Hall tells me I have room for new clones (pic), but the Arrival Center disagrees (pic). Spoiler Possibly something to do with using the Hotel to move residents out of Rocky Mansions, which I've demolished and replaced with Shiny Towers? I have a negative number of one animal (pic). I appear to be able to use as many of this animal as I like when one of its categories fulfils a criterion for a mission (pic), and get further into animal debt. I've seen a couple of other weird things happen in missions. Please take a look at the screenshots, here and here, if you're interested. I have an empty page of animals (pic). Every now and again, the news feed becomes a solid block of white (pic).
Mine does that too, it's not new in this update it started happening the previous one I think. It's odd.
More variety in the astroglass decor would be great...those plazas are very repetitive. I would love to see forest patches (preferably not pink), ponds, fields of grass and flowers, interesting rock formations, patches of sand...all kinds of natural stuff, really. More types of fountains or sculptures would be nice, as well. Overall, I really like this game...I just think it could benefit from more ways to mak the town pretty.
I might be missing something obvious, but how do I get the hitchhiker gene? I don't have any other "gene" missions right now, so where can I get this gene? Or do I have to wait for v1.41?
That one stumped me, too. I found the answer here. Spoiler You need to pay 100U to unlock the Hitch Hiker gene at the Gene Pool. Oops. TRB4 beat me to it.
Just in case no one has answered your question yet, you need to pay 100u at the Gene Pool. EDIT: Oh dang, ninja'd by my self 45 minutes ago
Finally finished my animals, finished the Ice and Fire Quest and I'm stuck on Wonderland and Brute Force. Whale, Rabbit and Dodo are REALLY frustrating to get =/
C-c-c-comboo breaker. But seriously, just keep trying. You always get it when youre about to quit... except for that whale. I spent over 600 mil.
Yep! Today I've spent nearly 250 million and I've gotten all the animals from Tier 4 and 5, including the new ones... I was REALLY happy, until I realized I lacked 1 Brown Bear. But he showed up quickly, and I started making the new clones... I guess I've spent 100u (I wasn't spending any before) replacing older houses just to accomodate the new buildings. Maybe later today (or even tomorrow) I'll find the whale and at least the rabbit... But, the Dodo? I kind of doubt it...
Do we actually need an animal called "whale"? Cause I have an orca but its not allowing me to use it. I'm not sure if LambdaMu is aware but an orca IS a whale... Or is mine bugged? Pease help. It's driving me crazy!
Its not asking for a type of animal, its asking for the actual animal called "Whale". Good luck on your hunt!
Shortly before the 1.40 update my last remaining gene mission was Ice and Fire. ( Dragon Animal wont show up :-( )To my knowledge the "buyout" costs were 100 u. Now the buyout has doubled to 200 u Thats quite a bummer. At a certain point I was missing both Jack Frost and Spoiler the Hitchhiker so I decided to Spoiler buy the Hitchhiker first given that the costs were identical. Now I wish I had bought Jack Frost first. Also: I cant get the Brute Force mission which unlocks the mid tier secret jobs 5-9, probable because I am stuck with an Ice and Fire mission (which cant be skipped) and an second bugged gene mission.
Just found a workaround to get rid of the bugged Gene Mission ( 0 buyout, all animals grey) - select mission - finish mission by selecting "buyout 0" - mission finishes, a new gene without text shows up - now close the game. dont klick the red X button; it will crash the game - start the game again and the bugged mission is replaced with a new one
