Hi All,

I have completed the Valentine's Bouquet 3 times. No more shears please !!

I used a bonus but can't remember it's name . But it looks like this

and is active for One Day. I think I purchased it from Duke's store for 8000 coins. I collected 19 Flowers in total from 35 shears.

I am doing the event in both my support games. If you receive Shears from them please gift shears in return.

Thank You
Harcourt

Wanted to let my neighbors know if you got a weird gift yesterday apologies. Was out late and when
I returned had only 12 minutes to gift both of my accounts that I send regular gifts from. So if your name
does not list a specific need it came down to me trying to remember what you wanted. Probably some
of you got ear plugs which most everyone needs or will need thousands.

Also I took the EVcharg out of my name as it was evidently making many think I wanted shears. That actually
meant EV charging station not event. I only needed 3 flowers to finish that event which came quite easily.
Just going to fly two of the destinations for stars now. I think this will be the first event where I have all the
destinations with 3 stars.

Mildly annoyed that 9 or so of my buildings (bought for previous quests) are now producing passengers for special destinations - which leaves me scrambling to fill my 9 Giant aircraft on a full turn around. My current fleet of giants only do not have access to the special destinations which is another reason I am not doing this quest

 

[gbswales]

Good morning @gbswales the daily task starts at the same time as the gifting/visiting re-sets

hopefully midnight then - on my android game everything happened sooner

Oh gang - this beep beep game has just reset to level 1 - luckily I backed up this morning - but that was 8.05 am and it is now 19.59 pm! - guess I won't get the daily quest, and lost 12 hours of flights - and gifts. I last wrote my gifts down around 2 hours ago, but let me know if you gifted and I don't return as it could have been lost in the black hole.

It happened to me this morning, fortunately I had backed-up 30 minutes before the reset, so nothing was lost this time round. Back-up at least twice a day, also after changing gaming levels and star skills. Your beep, beep is well placed.

Happened to Ike's yesterday as well. He lost his 12 neighbors clicked X10 (running the friend in need bonus) which was a big beep beep! Seems to be they borked something yet again.

Everytime I walk away from my computer or close it I make a save! I have come to notice that these resets have something to do with loosing internet connection. Or at least it seems that way. If my computer falls asleep, it drops internet connection, and therefore stops saving the game. GRR! So then when it goes to load, it never finished the script, so errors out and loads to level 1. I'm not a coder, just tech savvy, so not sure exactly how accurate I am about the scripts, but there is obviously something in the coding that doesn't get completed that is causing the resets.

I post after my morning play round, and again before I go to bed, and that seems to work for me.

When you all say back up - what do you mean? Until now I have been relying on my daily system back up which allows me to restore my C drive to the 09.30 state each day - however this is s tad overkill and takes about 40 min to restore. Do you guys save just the gameplay folders as a back up and if so, after a reset, do you simply overwrite the new folder(s) with the saved ones. If so could you confirm the necessary folders in a Win 10 64bit pro system and I will try that instead - thanks?

 

[BelleAIr]

So now that I have been critical of this game, I will address a couple things I like from the update.
1) I like that in moving an item, double-clicking it will also rotate it now.
2) I like the scroll speed when clicking through received gifts, etc. It's very quick now.
3) The speed of the coins leaving the screen does seem to be slightly quicker, or at least they are going behind the buildings available to click more, causing the whole clicking process to be quicker.
4) I have not had a pop-up in 24hrs. Now whether this means they are gone, I do not know, but I definitely don't miss them.
5) Probably best yet, they actually gave Windows users the full time for the event. I still have 15 days on my windows, but 11 days on android. So proud of them for not shorting us!

Edit: 6) When adding/deleting a road, just double clicking will delete/add it.

Hi all,
I've tried to note who needs pruning shears and who doesn't but if I send the wrong thing, please let me know. I don't need shears for Cath but do for Bear. Gifts are out for today. Many thanks for those received especially @Bob69bob, @Pit1024, @Airport Arne and @Ten33go for the building items! Signature updated.

 

[Steve26]

How do you get the 150+ star badge? I have the banner already, is it a different place I need to post?

Hi - here are my back up instructions, sound technical but they aren't as I follow them easily and they take about 20 seconds each time:-
