    So the elavator deliveries are automatic now after you press the red arrow? Is this an upgrade or a bug?

    VIP perk. It's in the Update notes.

    Well ok... Although that didn't seem to be the case. I've already added people who visit me so it probably wouldn't happen again anyway.

    How about that "Contacting server /n Continue" thingy?

    @eeenmachine: Can you generate a descriptive Bitbook entry when someone sends you a bitizen?

    Like "Peter Bit arrived from Vicsark's tower" or similar.

    In that way you know who sent you a bitizen even if you dismiss the popup.

    I always thought it was the sound of a marker scribbling out a design.

    I can confirm that I've played Tiny Tower Vegas for no less than 553 days in a row now - really hoping it gets a lot of 5-year updates when the time comes.... :)

    So I was wondering what would happen if I go over the max number of costumes. Buffer overflow and lots of free bux?

    Well apparently nada. At least it didn't eat my tower. Two left to get! Happy 50th day to me!

    Lol! We're using bitizen names to communicate and ask for costumes... :p

    "Wanted" costumes (like wanted bitizens), would be nice.

    Also, some rudimentary way of communication (using Bitbook?). Like a reply or something.

    Completing costumes list is cumbersome with limited tools.

    This game is getting really complex, and is starting to need a more robust user UI... (Something like what Butterscotch Shenanigans did).

    Sorry eeen... :(

    I don't understand how the discount time works. Is it one more minute for every rebuilt?

    Visiting coins and popups

    Have a question about coins earned by visiting. When my tower was around 40-50 i was getting aout 20k coins when i visit a friend and land my avatar to around floor 200. Now i rebuild and getting about 2k per same visit.

    So, i believe coins earned is calculated using my tower height. Is this intentional or a bug, or i misunderstand something?


    About latest updates, thanks again keep updates coming. Especially auto elevators, made life much more easier. But i am slightly not happy the way visiting friends implemented. No matter how i try to finish visits made my tower always around 100 waiting visits. And the way it works that visits actually blocks bitizens that would land my residentals so i can make them work also block bitizens that shortens build/stock times. Latter can be handled by applying bonus to visitors i believe but not sure what to do residentals.

    Lastly, now we have lots of things to do, like accepting visitor visit back that tower, vip ad bonus etc, there are too much popups for stuff i already know and dont have a choice to make already ( for instance, thanks for vip, here is 20 bux. thanks for visiting x you will get bux when they return your visit... kinda info). I believe these can be skipped or at least could be optional, again i dont have any choice to make on these.

    As always, thanks for making a great game even greater and keep'em coming :)

    I believe the coins you earn are based on the floor that your doorman visits. For instance I just visited a 194 floor tower and went to floor 178. I got ~ 19k coins. When I went to your tower I was sent to floor 4 or 5 and got less than 1k coins. This is why when I visit a friend I try to X out when I see I'm going to less than 50% of their highest floor (and then I revisit). This isn't as easy as it was before automatic elevator since you get to to a low floor before you have a chance to X out, but that being said the automatic elevator is still one of the better benefits of being a VIP. (Added) I now see where you said your getting less for visiting the same floor so I guess I don't know, maybe a combination?

    Mr Floppy, I have that black dress costume that you're missing. If you post your friend code I'll don it and pay you a visit!
    Actually I have the baseball outfit as well :)

    Thanks princess baby. 6733 is my code. Anything you want back, I'll return the favour. I'm rotating my costumes daily to share with the community.

    I did have all the all the costumes with my tower 5 years ago. Lost some of them when it was restored but the journey to get them all again has been fun. scoping out people's towers for costumes and sending a renamed bitizen with the request. Little tip, an unused dream jobber as an emissary means that it should have no cost to your friend

    I agree it is kind of annoying having lots of visitors (I would know). Still figuring out the best way to solve this.

    Added you back. Didn't know what you costumes you want so I visited as a cyborg as I couldn't see one in your tower. I know that you may not have all costumes in use so it was pretty much a guess

    It would be cool if we could buy VIPs with bux in the shop. Or even temporary boosts that increase coin production, VIP delivery, etc...
