Big Business - game discussion

Thanks Arcadia. I did look at leaders, but did not think of city structure. I need to do some arrangement.

Great list

Ok, so I started to reorder my town, but my score has hardly moved. So when I look at more cities above me in the rankings they are less organised than mine. I think there is more to this than just a neat city. Would appreciate any other suggestions.

Cant remember where I read it but someone wrote it was all to do with how promptly you collect things from your buildings when they're ready. Ie collect straight away, dont leave them waiting for a couple of hours.

Thanks uk_kiwiguy. Will do what I can with this and see if it makes a difference.

I think efficiency is less about how quickly you collect and more about not leaving anything idle. I typically don't pick up an item until I have everything ready to start producing something else in that location. Seems to work well. I'm fairly high in the rankings.

On another note, I collected 15 fruit in the warehouse and did not get the vitamin maniac award. But then I have run into this bug before with the paid gifts from friends award, caffeine junkie and now another one. A bit of a pain.

Can someone tell me how each staff person is used and with what building (other than the driver he is obvious)? What happens when I hire them? I accumulated them through the suitcases when buying city credits and don't want to waste them or credits hiring and not knowing what happens. Asked support but all I got was this answer: "To use some buildings and then to proceed work of them after upgrading you need to hire qualified staff. You can find them in education facilities." This told me nothing! Thanks for any help.

I read somewhere that the leave me alone achievement could be reducing your population to 1. My population is built up too high to try. Maybe someone new could try this while the population total is still low.

Did you upgrade any of yours?

I contacted GI about this and they claim that the 'radiant business' quest is not based on having two (or more) sun cafes... can someone that has completed this, please post a screen grab of the accomplishment so that I can revert back to them?

If you can tell me how to do this then I'll do it.
