iOS What flightitem building most neccesary

[Kevin1010]

hello all,

I am on a certain point where i have one of all buildings who produce items like catering or blankets.
Which one is the most important and so from that one i need to buy another first. And even more importantly why?
And Which one aftet that?
It seems catering is not that neccesary after 3 starring all jumbo destinations.

Note i dont have the 100 item limit

I guess it depends om what type of planes you want to fly.

You will need blankets to fly to most Giants destinations and you will need Fruit Lolly and Earplugs to fly to most Falcon destinations.

I have been building up stock of beds, blankets, sleeping pills and lollipops so, when I am ready to fly the larger planes, I can do so.

Earplugs are more tricky as you cannot manufacture them (get them from gifts or from Mogadishu) so it helps to build a large stock of these before flying Falcons.

Hope this helps.

And not to forget the weekly alliance destinations. For them you need still 15.000 flight catering.

@Kevin1010 I'll say go a second laundry,upgrade production to 3 if you can and then go for sweets factory.Consider that each destination of falcons requires lolipops and you have to fly 400 times to 3star each one of them.About earplugs,try to 3star first destination (Mogadishu-you will need blankets and lolipops) to stock up with 400 earplugs and without the risk of planes breakdowns and after that you can ask from neighbors

I have a question.. if i three star all jumbo destions then will it not require catering if i further fly to these jumbo destinations?

 

[Davescharf]

Yes it will require catering for every flight. I think a couple of the events use existing destinations and you’d still need them then. Same with alliance missions if you fly Delta ones as mentioned prior. There will be a point where you don’t need extra facilities but I had 6 for a long time and I think I’m down to 3 now.

The answer to the original question really depends on the next class of plane you want to fly. If you are going to Falcons anytime soon start the sweet factories now and build them all. You burn Lollipops like crazy because of the 3 hour flight duration.

I would go for the extra lollipops, Beds or Pills before building an extra laundry. Giants (excluding the weekly alliance missions) only require 150 flights to 3* them. Falcons, Thunderbirds and Condors need 400, 500 & 600, so you need a lot more manufacturing items for them.

I build 2 FCat, 3 Laundry, 6 Lollipops and am working on the Beds now before I buy any planes for them. Eventually it will be 6 of the Beds and the Pills, but that’s like 9m coins!

@Aardvark @pete blake @Davescharf @nick6901
I have now 2 laundry 2 lolli, 1 bed and 1 catering.
For catering i upgraded to 2 instead of 1 Peace.
I am almost done with destinations requiring catering So i think i dont need more.
Is it neccesary to built more of other building. I dont have a pills yet. Very close to level 71. Should i wait for that and built pills or built more lolli or Blanket or beds?

@Kevin1010

Really depends, I think, on what planes you are flying now and what planes you intend to fly later.

If you have some idea of this, then you should perhaps make sure you have enough flight items for immediate needs - and slowly build up capacity for your future flying needs. For example, I am slowly acquiring pills even though I do not currently fly planes that need them. But when I do fly these planes, I will be ready. Same with earplugs.

Most of my capacity is for short and medium term needs - but some investment for the future too - rebalancing as the game progresses and my needs change.

Hope this little helps.

@pete blake
What i am planning to do for now is once i reach level 71 Which is today or tomorow. I buy runway 7 to start to fly to mogadishu to built up plugs i only fly to mogadishu with falcon.
I am not planning to start flying higher planes than falcons.
I still have to 3 star all giants.
I think i need much beds and lollie. I now have 2. Only thing is hard to get the building needs from them. And when i have money i buy allready one poll factory to built up stock.

Isnt it a waste of space to have 6 buildings from each like Some people have?

@Kevin1010

I have a maximum of 2 of each flight producing buildings.
2 x laundry which gives me 5 blankets per day (2+3). I need these for daily use now. I have plenty of stock
2 x catering giving me 6 per day. I need these for daily use now. I have plenty of stock.
1 x Pharma lab giving me 1 each day. I am building up stock for later
1 x furniture factory giving me 1 per day. I am building up stock for later
1 x Sweet factory giving me 3 per day. I am building up stock for later.

I have already 3 starred Mogadishu so have stock of earplugs - I bought a Falcon as soon as I could. I do not fly it so much at the moment. I have other priorities.

Once I progress to Falcons, Condor and T-Bird, I will probably need to increase production of pills, beds, lollies - and I haven't even thought about E-readers yet...…..

I would not want to have more than 2 of each building but I will review this once I begin to fly the bigger planes. I will see how fast my stock is used up.

To get building items - I spend time looking at player's signatures. Identifying who has the items I need. Start a conversation with them and begin a trade. I keep a separate table to record who is sending me which item and what I must send them each day. Slowly but surely, you can acquire the items you need. Then you just need MILLIONS of coins.

What fun!!!!

So u have upgraded your catering and laundry with greens?
And sweets aswel?

Ereaders can only be gifted righf? And from flying to pyongyang. Like plugs.
That why i want go start flying mogadishu.

So basicly plugs and ereaders are the pain in the arse in the game?

Thanks for ur great replies

Yes. I'm so far into the game, I don't mind paying. I try to limit to 1 x purchase of greenies per month - GBP24.99 - when the cash sale is on. Yes - as you say - Earplugs and E-readers will need some thought. My thinking there is not yet well developed. On the horizon - but not for me to worry too much right now.

And, of course, there is no right or wrong - its just how you prefer to play your game.

A couple of notes from me on this, as I don’t agree with all of it...

I’m terms of what gives best value, buying extra land and putting down more factories (of any kind) makes more sense than upgrading production. Greens become more and more valuable as the game progresses.

Can I just double check that you don’t have the 100-item limit? I’d say you are probably a year from needing to fly condors if you have all the giants, falcons and t-birds to do.

You will never have too many FCatering sets. If you include alliance destinations and alliance maps, you probably need around 30,000 across the deltas, power deltas and jumbos.

Adding extra factories isn’t a waste of space, particularly for lollies and Beds where the flight times are 3 or 5 hours and you can do many flights per day.

 

[Davescharf]

If you are planning to fly multiple Falcons next then you will want multiple Sweets Factories. I fly 4 of them and am thinking about building my 5th and 6th factories because I’m going through 16-20 a day. On weekends it can be 24

Earplugs are always at a premium too. I just looked and about 20 of my neighbors are asking for Earplugs right now.

As others have said the other buildings should be for investment. I have 1800 blankets, 600 beds and 300 pills but no plans really to fly those planes for awhile. I’ve sold off 3 of my 6 catering facilities and may sell more of them, but I’m holding off in case I need it for the time alliance missions need it
