It won't let me update! I push the button and it switches to 'installing' for a split second and then immediately says 'update' again. Ugh
*Update* I called IT and they asked: "Have ye tried turning it off and on again?" and I realized I hadn't, so I did. And it worked! Now there is a fire in my kitchen, so I need to go call 0118 999 881 999 119 725 3. brb

Is anyone having problems collecting money from the buildings? For example, when I first logged in today only a handful of buildings had tappable money or handshakes. But when you tap on a building, the timer has been rest as if you tapped/cleared it. The castles are doing it, some of the larger shops are doing it and quite a few others.

There is a bug which was introduced with the attempted release of the IRS building. People have been reporting what you describe, but the buildings are auto collecting if you keep track of cash/xp. |

Ah, ok. Good to know. I haven't been following things too closely since the monorail ended. Thanks.

Hi
I've been playing TSTO since around February 2013. Luckily I have avoided most of the game breaking glitches I keep reading about. My problem has been happening since sometime between winter 2013 and early 2014. My problem is terrible frame rate, on every device I use. Of course, some devices are worse than others, and on an iPad Air 2 I actually get very good performance; however, I'm not an Apple guy nor can I afford an iPad Air 2. I can remember sometime in early-mid 2014, around April or May, when everyone was complaining about frame rate issue after an update. My town was already running slow before that, so during the mass complaints, my town performed about the same.
After they released an update which supposedly fixed the lag, my town did perform better, yet only slightly, again depending on the device used to log in. Fast forward to now: my town runs slow on every device except my gf's iPad Air 2. Here are the list of devices I have tried:
-iPad Air 2 (town runs great, very smooth)
-iPad Mini 2 (town runs very slow, quite laggy when scrolling across my town. The worst part is collecting the real estate currency like chairs, lattes, etc. Whenever I collect them, my town grinds to a standstill and occasionally crashes. Visiting friends' towns is nearly impossible due to major lag)
-Nexus 5 (town runs ok, not great, lots of lag when scrolling around but no issues visiting friends nor collecting real estate currency)
-iPhone 5 (was running pretty good, better than the Nexus 5 until the most recent update after the monorail. It's now totally unplayable, not even worth trying)
-Nexus 7 (2013) (unplayable, despite trying different ROMs, kernals, etc)
This, combined with the lack of other posts I can find both here and on the EA forums, suggests to me that this problem is specific to my town. i did log a ticket with EA which was totally fruitless, they just kept asking me "what do you want us to do about it?" then disconnecting the conversations and closing my tickets.
At this point, and for quite some time, I'm seriously considering nuking my town, yet I have it set up the way I like it and really don't want to do it. Does anyone on here have any advice for me? My gf and I play this a lot, her town runs much better than mine and we have very similar towns despite layout differences. I'm at the point where I want to either fix this or simply quit. Any help or advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

My town was already running slow before that, so during the mass complaints, my town performed about the same. It's not your device, it's EA's inefficient coding of the game. I come from a technical (software/hardware) background and what I see EA releasing just shocks me. There is no quality control or in depth testing of releases, it's done on the fly, release/fix. The EA culture has (and always been) make money, who cares if people have issues, we are still making money via donut sales, keep doing it. I run BlueStacks for the game and an iPhone 3GS (old) but even with BS, I hit the 4500 warning and the game just grinded to an almost halt. To the point where sound effects were 30sec lagging. The cycle EA is creating will have no end, there is no down time, it's event after event, even with  's being increased and it will get quicker and quicker as we press on. EA needs to take a break, stop with the releases, recompile the game and release it as v2.0. 500MB to download a game? Seriously if a developer came to me with that, they would been shown the door. Personally, I think EA is the only company where they promote people internally for pissing off their customers. |

I just won 10 donuts in the mystery box. It must be a glitch.
If it happens 22 more times, I can afford the Sleep-Eazy Motel.

The game now logs me out each time after closing it, and as of just now it won't let me log back in ("an error has occurred processing your request")
Guess I will take a forced break from SF heights and monorail piece grinding .

For the first time I can remember, this morning I got a "you have (for some reason) been logged out of your game" message... When I got back in I had double handshakes on many buildings; when I looked closely more than one person's name floated up, which I found interesting. Then when I (repeatedly) tried to return the favour I (repeatedly) got the "unfortunately tapped out has stopped" message. (Sorry friends, no visits from me - the game won't let me.) So far I can play normally other than visiting, so I consider myself lucky not to have Linguo Is Dead's problem... However, more than likely I have just jinxed myself by saying that out loud. |

There seems to be a glitch when making boardwalk pieces. After the required 2 days, 12 hours pass to make a tile, I don't get a tile. So I keep spending $12,500 for nothing.

I can't even seem to get into my neighbors list. Every time I tap the friends icon the game will attempt to load it for a few seconds then crash. Anyone else?

I think it's a server issue. Just tried it again and got halfway through my visits. I'll try again in a bit. Also noticed I can't friend unfriend at the moment.

Since upgrading to the end of the Monorail event, when I pass a milestone in the rail yard to get track pieces, it doesn't award them, and then just carries on going up, so I'm on 31,400 / 30,000 with no pieces for reaching 30k. There is a workaround: Visit Krustyland or a friend and return to your town... Then you'll get the prize.. Thanks so much for this! I was freaking out because I want to get my tracks done around my town before the Halloween update! Well now I cant get back in my game, I keep getting an error message. So irritating... |
