    Interesting.

    Well, even with the rather common Upgrader spawns I'm getting, I doubt I'll be getting up to that point any time soon.

    You need to 'fire' an employee to create a vacant spot first (choose the employee & click unemployed), and then give the new chap his dream job.

    This kind of Mosaic games are really popular, but I'm not interested at all. :(

    What's up with there not being anymore Imperial missions? I haven't done that many I didn't think and they are already done? I felt like that was the best part and new mechanic. It was a different way to get extra coins that sometimes lead to an extra floor in a matter of time that you should only have gotten one. So what is the point of all the Imperial floors now? Surely it can't be just for the sake of finding the movies? Bah, and what is the point of the inventory if there are no mid Imperial missions?!

    Did you read the person he was responding to? Please read that and the other posts referring to the fact that we can't assign someone to "unemployed" anymore. You are the second person I've seen on here saying, "just make them unemployed". You can't anymore... in their attempt to stop people from farming bux from dream jobbers they made it impossible to assign anyone to "unemployed" (at least in the iOS version). Darth Vader just pops up and says "I find your lack of jobs disturbing" and prompts you to build another floor.

    This is not a good fix to a problem that they thought they were fixing. Personally I see nothing wrong with people farming bux from dream jobbers. It added to the game mechanics of building the best tower you could. Now if I have two level 9's that I want to switch (e.g. a level 9 retail in a food floor, and a level 9 food in a retail floor) I have to evict one of them just to move the other to the correct floor. So I end up with only one of the level 9's instead of both. They really need to rethink this fix and move it back to the old way of unemploying people when needed.

    For now I'm just going to build a new food floor and always keep only two employees in it so I have one space open to switch people in and out of other jobs.

    I guess this is what I'll do, but it seems dumb.

    I just don't understand why they did this. There is no multiplayer, so its not like it creates an imbalance. Are they hoping that people like me are now going to spend lots of money? Because they ruined my favorite part of the game, switching my bitizens around.

    Yeah, this update is awful. Between this, the new performance issues, and the login thing, I think I'm going to stop playing for the time being.

    To solve the problem not be able to exchange employees, evict one person in 1 business - perhaps one that does not have all dream jobs. This creates a vacancy and you can move people around. Then you can evict when necessary after earning the bux. I have a few businesses still needing dream jobs so keeping 1 vacancy is not a problem.

    This update is buggy and bad though.

    Sorry posted this late and see above that solution was found.

    Thanks for the explanation. I just had the game close when I attempted to unemploy someone, so never got the error /glitch. Loading takes longer, the emperor swivel takes far longer than before, idk. It's probably gamecenter and the tapjoy ads logging in.

    So far, not entirely whelmed. 49 floors in, 2nd elevator, and up to 330k per floor. Using the imperials to accelerate income, 1 per 3000 credits helps accel funding, and spending 2 for VIPs every so often while waiting. The upgrade system is trash, as is the IAP experience.

    Finally got to a better overall stage by just skipping the "build 2 floors" nonsense and keeping the imperial inventory up. Seems to be the only way to make money, is to have 20-30 new tokens stored up before going to another imperial level type, an keeping 1/3 residential, and keeping 5-10 unemployed or an open residentialp, only buying store floors as you get new 3 new 9's in to fill a new store, instead of having empty stores or following the emperor missions, which don't pay a lot.

    Kind of hoping there's a way to get the elevator or upgrades cheaper eventually, as its not an improvement over TT so far. they should push TDS to smokers, its nearly that addictive and expensive a habit.

    I really liked this game but after this horrible update I stopped playing. I also changed my rating on the itunes store to 1 star. :mad:

    Update 1.1.2 has just been pushed. Seems to fix the horrible UI lag and the iTunes multiple logins and the access to the Bux Store. Sadly you will still have to leave one job spot open if you wish to be able to switch the jobs on bitizens ..

    EDIT: Yes unfortunately lag in menus is still craptastic and after a while main screen still lags a bit ..

    Update improved main game screen. However, menus are still choppy and slow. Tap on Menu → Bitizens → Switch between Job, Food, Service, etc. In Album, click on Bitizens and try tapping different characters. The taps don't quite register.

    Personally, I only put Level 9 Dream Job Bitizens. If there aren't any, I put Level 9 Bitizens from the same industry. If I have only 2, so be it. I'm concerned in getting Level 9 Dream Job Bitizens and Imperial Bux. ;)

    Speaking of things I wish were in the game but aren't...

    ...the ability to 'close' a low-cap/low-value level without the "!" remaining persistent.

    In Tiny Towers, there's an option to demolish. Hopefully, they'll add that feature, and I'm sure they'll make you pay a lot of Imperial Bux for it. :p

    Demolishing wouldn't work unless it kept the levels from reappearing down the line. I'd hate to pay 500k+ to get a cheap level back.

    Update wiped my game. Game now deleted. Glad I never spent money on this trash. I put my $ into NBA General Manager. Much better and more stable game.
