    Unfortunately my crashing problem is back, and I can't seem to fix it at all, breaking the game outright for me. Every time my game starts up, the earned coins message shows up, but as soon as I click ok, the game crashes, and I have not been able to fix it. Again, I'm on an ipod touch 4g not jailbroken.

    This sucks, I'm really liking this game but now unless I delete the game outright and restart I feel like I can't do much, and I was going to purchase like five bucks worth of towerbux but am worried if my game loops like this again it will be wasted money. Any suggestions?

    Huh, interesting, I'm not connected to the internet or gamecenter at this point, but I'll definitely try that when I get home. Thank you for the quick feedback!

    The first elevator is so worth it. It's like three times as fast.

    Does anyone know why I haven't been getting any bitzens to come and ride the elevator for the past few hours?
    Im up to floor 14, no elevator upgrades..?
    All I get is the waldo type mini game, no vip or elevator requests.

    EDIT: Nvm, I had to close Tiny Tower and reopen it. :)

    So you love the game, but you don't wanna play it for as long as us? ;)

    OK, so max tower size is 100 floors, which is actually only 99 floors + a lobby, which at the ratio of 3 residential for every 5 fully staffed businesses ration works out to 61 fully staffed businesses or 62 or so mostly staffed businesses.

    So, being an anal retentive sort, I'm already trying to think long term here. There's, at a minimum, 80 different businesses, so you can't possibly have one of each at the same time. In that vein, eeenmachine already stated the game is coded to prevent business duplicates.

    My question is: Is that duplicate at the same time, or duplicate ever? And, if it's just preventing two of the same businesses from existing at the same time, is it possible to delete a business, rebuild the same type and wind up with the same business again?

    I want to know how to approach the achievements since they all involve having 2 of a particular business at once. Hate to demolish a particular business and never be able to get it again (I'm thinking it must just be at the same time because you could easily wind up stuck if it was no duplication ever, but I'll ask anyhow because somebody's got to ask it).

    Coin/Bucks BUG:

    After you have delivered a Bitizen to a floor using the elevator, you can quickly *tap* the lobby area to increase your reward for having done so. Doing so not only gives you (reward * n) additional coins, where n is the number of times you manage to tap within a specific time period, but also rerolls the bucks-gifting check for each tap, making it *far* easier to amass the buck thresholds for the elevator purchases.

    Where the Bitizin's destination is floor 2, the player can essentially rapid-tap the lobby, increasing the coin reward and the chance of a bucks bonus by at least ten-fold. For floors 3 to 9, it is still possible to increase the bonus 3x to 5x by repeatedly scrolling back down to the lobby.

    Good game otherwise, though I would prefer to have means of sorting/filtering Bitizens by employment status and traits... but the temptation to cheat is too great not to partake.

    Will return to the game once it has been patched.

    I'm just going with 80 floors of businesses. So they won't all by fully staffed at the same time, no big deal. I'll staff the most profitable ones.

    He might just be going by the achievement, 100 floors is the highest floor-related one.

    So... anyone else gonna try and arrange their floors in colour order?! :p

    Just got the 70's apartment (should be 70s really, but it might look like 705 without the apostrophe), it rocks.
