Idle Builders...

[Sir Derf]

There are times when I've unlocked an update for, say, residences, and I wish I had 4x the number of builders.

And then there are times when my builders sit around with nothing to do for days and days and days and days...


How about giving us an option to set our builders to some long-term project?

I would want it to be something meaningful, and not just a 10% coin rain. And I would want it to require a loooong term commitment - a week , or weeks.

While it might feel nice to say 1 week for a Pet Food, 1 month for a Blueprint, and don't get me wrong, I like PFs and BPs, I also don't like diluting the specialness of those items.

+1 from me.
I've got 3 and unless they're building an FA shanty town, there's generally at least 1 doing nothing. Must be the foreman

Must be the foreman

It could be the apprentice they send to the cafe for bacon-and-egg rolls and coffee.

Seriously though, could idle builders be used to upgrade the streets, without charge. Say, one tile per week?

As long as it wasn't random spraying of pathways. That is, we could nominate which path tile was being upgraded for free.
