    Has anyone made a list of the shops/businesses with the highest base stock quantities(along with a higher stock refill waiting time)? I'm currently looking to demolish some of my lower quantity shops and hoping to get better stores.

    From what I remember all groups of businesses have their high and low shops. Food shops have some of the lowest. But it is all random.

    The higher your tower goes, better shops unlock for you to use. But it adds to the pool of shops so even at floor 100 you could still get the sushi shop if you don't already have it in your tower. Also keep in mind the construction time is based off your highest floor (30 mins for each floor), so your going to hit a lot of down time trying to achieve this.

    Finally got around to upgrading to the 25 bux elevator.

    Weeeee. It's quite zippy.

    But it's 75 bux for the next elevator upgrade. Hmmmm. That's a lot of Bux!

    So to unlock high level shops and stores, like the mapple store, do you have to have a significant number of levels in the tower? I'm building, but I'm currently sitting at a mere 8 floors :(. So will I have to keep building to get those businesses?

    Feel free to add me: banger1103

    Simply, yes. When you build a new floor after you pick the type it is randomly chosen from a pool of shops. As your tower gets bigger more shops are added in to that pool.

    But a higher floor doesn't mean a better shop, it picks from what is left of the pool of shops. Meaning you could get a sushi bar at floor 120.

    I see, thanks for the clarification. And it is random cause I just got lucky this time, instead of a laundromat I got a fortune teller this early for my service business.

    Not sure if this has been covered, too many pages to scroll through, but how do I see the achievements? I get notifications I've achieved some but can't actually see a list like you can in Pocket Frogs. I only have a 3G phone and, thank you apple, they've removed access to Game Centre for my old device, and I do not have £500 to upgrade to a newer handset just for Game Centre!

    That depends on your connection for the friends list.

    On making money that is easy

    Stock Stores
    You get rent every 24 hours
    trade in bux

    An idea for the game so that there is more interaction with people on your friends list: Maybe a system that would let you trade Bitizens with each other so you could get people with a dream job that you need?

    On a side note, I seem to be getting a lot of Bitizens who want to work at Scoops.

    Perhaps not, it will be hard to regulate and will make paying for this game even more meaningless because everything will be so easy to obtain.

    Right now, I'm currently undergoing a mad job hunt for my stores. 23 floors, 3 food, retail & creative, 2 rec and service, 10 residentials though with 40 employees. All but one are matched with their dream job though. It was a long process where I intentionally left all of the residentials open and slowly filled them with required dream job employees while evicting absolutely everyone else, regardless of their stats. Took a long time (~2 hours) but I got around 20 dream job matches (and lots of bux :D)

    I'm getting kinda bored, there doesn't seem to be much to do in the game. After building a few floors you've seen everything, all you can do is repeat that until you can build more floors.

    Fill dream job, give elevator rides, Find the Bitizen, check out the bitbook. Play something else until it comes time to restock.

    A construction bug. Please see.

    HELLO EVERYONE!
    I have a very big bug in my tiny tower now.
    I don't know if it's or not, read the rest.

    So recently, 2 new floors are under construction now.
    I was so excited for the first new floor as i waited the time reached <1.
    After the time's up, the floor should something like, for e.g,
    Congratulations ! A Bank has been constructed and you just got a tower bux!

    What happened to me is that,
    it's still UNDER CONSTRUCTION . With NO TIME on your right corner.
    When i clicked it, it says something like, Constuction stock.
    I don't know what is it exactly called, but since when do you have a stock after a construction ?

    Anyways, to speed up the sale for this "construction stock" , pay 2 bux.
    To my curiosity, i tried , and nothing happend.
    It's still the same old damned construction .
    Now i clicked this constuction floor again, there's nothing.
    Only 2 words lighted, Delete and Move.

    So i tried to "force close" this app. Twice.
    It did not work, still same damned constuction .

    I moved the building with a freaking bux.
    Still the same.

    I restarted my ipad, STILL THE SAME.
    What's this?!
    I saved lots of money for that floor and was really excited for it...

    ON the other hand , as i mentioned i built two new floors, the 2nd new floor i built was fine, it became a Bank.

    Oh Pleaseeee help me ! What should i do ?! I can't describe how i feel now, oh my gooooood.

    Thank you and i appreciated that you took up the time of your life to read this long problem of mine. :rolleyes:
    please help.

    PS: It's the 12th and 13th floor.
