nmcmd — 6/5/26, 10:07 PMUntil you finish funding the “secret agency” project.Bangel [ÆGIS], — 6/5/26, 10:07 PMOh wowI’m in a small city. That could be a whilenmcmd — 6/5/26, 10:08 PMYeaaaah. We had to finish our current project which was like a million bucks, then fund the agency for 1.9 mil. That sucked, especially because our policy was set to -20% fee per donation lmao.So we paid a good bit more overall to get the hack taken care ofBangel [ÆGIS], — 6/5/26, 10:09 PMDang. Would suck if someone had all the points set into mayor salarynmcmd — 6/5/26, 10:09 PMIdk when the hack happens for sure, but ours was somewhere around 2k total points I think. Like across our whole city, we had somewhere around that, then got hacked. Not sure if that is what affects it or not, but still. [ÆGIS], nmcmd — 6/5/26, 10:10 PMWe did 😂 well, we had block upkeep at 0%. But mayor salary up. It wasn’t too bad though cause whoever became mayor agreed to fund the heck out of the project. We had like 5 people putting hundreds of thousands of dollars into the two projects.Bangel [ÆGIS], — 6/5/26, 10:14 PMSince you seem well versed in buying from the depot, if say you get back luck and get a run of wood and max it out, and wood is the only available option to buy, does that mean you can not buy wood or will it essentially “void” the excess wood nmcmd — 6/5/26, 10:19 PMNahhh. Not to my knowledge. I’ve only ever seen one of two things:whatever is offered by the depot is there until it is bought.It glitches and only one thing pops up, or nothing, but this only happens when other people have stuff in the depot. If no one puts trades up, it’s usually option 1.Unfortunately if you max on wood and it keeps giving wood, you just gotta keep buying until it gives you something elseBangel [ÆGIS], — 6/5/26, 11:01 PMAppreciate it. Any idea the max amount of blocks that is feasible to obtain?nmcmd — 6/6/26, 1:29 AMIdk for sure, but I played years ago before all the perks existed, and I feel I recall having a solid 7-8 blocks. But now with perks and everything else they’ve added, I’d be surprised if you couldn’t get like 10. But if you look at the leaderboards in the main menu, you can get a good idea of how many blocks you can get based on how many some of them have.saltyy — 6/6/26, 2:14 AMhow does the birthing center work??I just built it and am not sure how people are born on mars [ÆGIS], Evgplays — 6/6/26, 5:27 AMI believe the top player has 12 rn, i don’t see how that is possible tho. I think it would cost 4 million💀Arel — 6/8/26, 4:41 AMAsking anyone, I have construction faster VIP, lot of times when the building countdown reach zero, it didnt finish instead going forward… ex. normal time it said 2 hours construction time, with vip construction 22% faster on the same plot it said 1 h 30 m, but after the timer go 0, it just go forward again to 30 m, make it total 2h time, make the vip useless, how to fix that?nmcmd — 6/8/26, 1:02 PMOkay so does anyone know how the mayor salary is calculated? I was mayor and made $6k with a 75% boost. Ended my mayorhood and went down to -880. That math doesn’t check out.Evgplays — 6/8/26, 2:06 PMI am not 100% on this but i think the mayor income multiplier affects your income before the block upkeep. Which is why it gives such a huge boostLarty — 6/8/26, 3:20 PMHow long does it take for a VIP to move in? I just build the mansion and no one has moved in after a couple hoursnmcmd — 6/8/26, 7:43 PMIt’s taken me days before. It’s based on happiness and it seems to be like a competition between anyone else who has a mansion. Not a real competition, but like the VIP will go to the happiest blocks mansion. If it’s you, it still might take a few days.Tip though - you can move the mansion between blocks without losing the people in it. At least I can confirm this along with another person in my city.Evgplays — 6/8/26, 7:44 PMIs it happiness based on the entire city or for the specific block?nmcmd — 6/8/26, 7:44 PMOkay definitely need to look into this more. Thats really interesting. Will mess with salary next time I am mayor and see what math I can figure out lol. Thanks!nmcmd — 6/8/26, 7:45 PMBlock, as far as I know.Larty — 6/8/26, 8:05 PMThank you that makes sense, I am currently the only one with a mansion so I would assume that means mine gets top priority? It’s also in a block with 99% happinessnmcmd — 6/8/26, 8:19 PMCorrect!And you’re welcome 🙂Linh — 6/8/26, 8:33 PMI would recommend getting it to 100% @LartyMirakulus7 — 6/12/26, 3:56 PMHi, does anyone know why the events aren't working for me? Do I need to be at a specific level or something?Linh — 6/12/26, 4:26 PMIt says to have at least score 25Mirakulus7 — 6/13/26, 7:37 AMO, thank’snmcmd — 6/14/26, 5:08 PMHey so my event isn’t working. The contractor doesn’t show up for me to build. Yes, the event started, lol, but no contractor. Some people already have 20+ points. I have no contractor.nmcmd — 6/14/26, 5:34 PMAlright I know I can’t ping the dev, but I couldn’t do anything with the event, left because someone said their 5 pixels were refunded, but mine weren’t. So. Can I somehow at least get those refunded? Lmao. Or can I get support or somethin’?Arel — 6/15/26, 3:58 AManyone can help for this one? Not sure what trigger this one to happen or how to solve it @Pixel Plexnmcmd — 6/15/26, 4:39 AMIt’s happened to me before. I usually move the building to another plot and it fixes itself. Or even moving it at all even within the same block. Not a guaranteed thing, but like I said, has helped me.toastersnake — 6/15/26, 11:31 PMWhat’s the optimal number of resource buildings? Currently have 3 of each with 5 blocks and contractor 12 but seem to be running out of space to get 6th blockEvgplays — 6/16/26, 1:11 AMIm on 5 blocks rn and im running 2 of each. Down the road you probably don’t want them at all if you want to prioritize points because their size is so small. You can just buy all your ressources from trade or alt account :ptoastersnake — 6/16/26, 2:05 PMYeh I think that’s what I’ve realized I’m still running out of wood but almost always at max capacity for steel and cementDoes upgrading trade depot affect the amount you can get from npc trades? 0xBarizio — 6/17/26, 4:06 AMI never see any events on my home page, have any events been going on. I haven’t seen any since i started playing the gameike — 6/17/26, 8:17 AMThe sales that pop up in the top right when you’re at your city, one came up that I wanted and I clicked on it to buy it, but I backed out of the transaction temporarily to look at something but it went away. It was $5 for 50 pixels, cinema, and 1% income from housing. It has 24 hours left. How can I get it back?Arel — 6/18/26, 3:53 AMAlready did, still like that… not the first time, so sad I have 2 vip make total 30% construction faster become uselessnmcmd — 6/18/26, 1:53 PMDang.

I tried everything to get them. The coins are gone and I haven't received anything😞😢ImageImagePixel Plex — 6/20/26, 12:21 PMWhat's your username?King 👑 — 6/20/26, 3:43 PMOmanh @Pixel PlexDkryg — 6/20/26, 4:07 PMHello, I just wanted to see if I could get more clarity on my specific purchasing issue. I purchased the deal that has the free apartment building with 300 pixels. When I paid it said 14.99 but then I got a charge of 30.77 to my account. If need be I can show screenshots and such but I would like to know why I was charged almost double?Pixel Plex — 6/20/26, 5:12 PMThere aren't any recent purchases listed, did Apple send you a receipt? Pixel Plex — 6/20/26, 5:13 PMThat's definitely good to question! Apple handles all of our payment processing and we don't have an in-app purchase for that amount, unless you used a different currency than USD. Does the receipt from Apple say it was from Pixel Plex specifically and USD?Dkryg — 6/20/26, 5:17 PMIt does say Apple, I looked closer and it seems my Apple account will do sum multiple charges together. This $30 that I saw was a cluster of purchases. Sorry for the confusion but thank you for getting back to me 🙂Pixel Plex — 6/20/26, 9:51 PMNo worries, glad you got it figured out!King 👑 — 6/20/26, 11:01 PMI collected them from the rafts and the balloon; I didn't buy them. @Pixel PlexKing 👑 — 6/21/26, 11:29 AM@Pixel PlexBirnyBirch — 6/21/26, 1:27 PM@Pixel Plex I payed for offshore rig (fully funded) and didn’t apear in my city nor helped reducing energy deficit 😫 Any help would be appreciated 😁L3odr0id — 6/21/26, 4:37 PMWhat are free perk upgrades awarded for?Dkryg — 6/21/26, 4:38 PMI was wondering if everyone for the event is able to rush any construction or resources?

I can’t for the life of me figure out the equation that determines the efficiency of housing [FMV], Evgplays — 6/22/26, 4:36 AMWhats there to figure out about it?U lose 10% effiency on all jobs of one kind in one block if u have more than 2 [FMV], Arel — 6/22/26, 6:53 AMIt affect the incomeThe_Poseidolon [FMV], — 6/22/26, 9:51 AMWell that’s for businesses, my question is, what is the exact equation that determines the efficiency of housing [FMV], Linh — 6/22/26, 11:13 AMIt's if they are employed and if so, whether they are working a job that they preferThe_Poseidolon [FMV], — 6/22/26, 11:16 AMI was doing some testing and noticed that housing efficiency isn't related to if the residents prefer their jobs, it only seems to be some function of the number of employed people, the number of unemployed people, and the number of max people that that housing can hold. But I've been trying to figure out the exact equation...The best I've got so far is that housing efficiency = ((# employed people / # max people) + 1)/2 when the number of unemployed people is equal to 0, but I haven't figured it out when there are unemployed peopleLinh — 6/22/26, 11:18 AMAh then if they work in preferred jobs just affects the business efficiencyThe_Poseidolon [FMV], — 6/22/26, 11:19 AMYep!Luckily the business efficiency function is much simpler, I found it's just equal to (# workers who prefer the job + (# workers who don't prefer the job / 2)) / # max workers, and then you subtract 10% for every additional business of the same type in that block after two of the same type Linh — 6/22/26, 11:33 AMI just tried it at my duplex and it just goes down in steps of 15% for every additional unemployed person so going from 100% to -50% efficiencyd.karavaev — 6/22/26, 6:06 PMCould you change the voting system in the game? For instance, implement random rotation among players who have equal votes.I'm playing with a random person who just votes for themselves, doesn't build a city, and refuses to engage in any dialogue. I don't think I'm the only one with this problem.I can't launch a rocket to Mars because the game gave mayor to another player.Is it possible to do something about that?The_Poseidolon [FMV], — 6/23/26, 12:55 AMOk after many hours I think I finally got it... 😖ImageAt least this is what works with cabins, I haven't run calculations on other housing because I'm tired lol [FMV], Linh — 6/23/26, 4:38 AMOh wow that looks complicated, but interesting how you got to this point!Sleep well hahaThe_Poseidolon [FMV], — 6/23/26, 10:39 AMAlso people, does anyone know if there is a way to rename your city? [FMV], nmcmd — 6/25/26, 3:04 PMI don’t believe you can :/Does anyone know if the apartment is ever an event reward? Haven’t seen it there in the past 10 events, so wondering if it ever isDisastrix — 6/25/26, 8:08 PMI don’t think so.Yahoo! — 6/26/26, 9:34 AMWas there a visual tweak to office towers or am I bugging?Pixel Plex — 6/26/26, 6:28 PMYou’re right, Refinery tooYahoo! — 6/26/26, 8:25 PMFireDisastrix — 6/26/26, 9:40 PMWhen I look at the policy cards it says 15 more to unlock. It also says that you will unlock more as your city grows. but what exactly does that mean? because my city is already done all our projects and we are 6th on the leaderboard. So how do we still have 15 more to unlock?ooopsxoops — 6/27/26, 11:21 PMHi, I am having issues with the new policies, so we only have a few, and the town is fully funded like the last person who asked. For us is 21 more to unlock. The only negative on one of them is “building 20% slower” but instead just sends the time back on a weird loop. Like my buildings have finished and restarted the count up and down like 3 times. Evgplays — 6/28/26, 7:59 AMDo mansion people give points?
