Bugs and suggestions from the Reddit thread as of 9/25/2020

[James103]

I've captured the following suggestions from the game's Reddit thread and compiled them into the list below. Each suggestion is credited with the Reddit username of the suggestion's original poster.

• [x] 1. "Let me click the ID of a property and take me to it" (cowmandude).
• [x] 2. "Make my loans pay off over time" (cowmandude).
• [x] 3. "Let me adjust that timing for a longer interest rate" (cowmandude).
• [x] 4. "Give me a credit rating. As I get more in debt push up my interest rate" (cowmandude).
• [x] 5. "Let me filter by level required and price. (maybe make buildings a different color?)" (cowmandude).
• [x] 6. "Can you get some real estate values per area and include that in the price calculation? It would be cool to start out in the boonies and move into the inner city" (cowmandude).
• [x] 7. Add a way to show the total income / net profit (heyugl).
• [x] 8. Make it so not every building gives the same returns (heyugl).
• [ ] 9. "Would be nice to have payout every second" (denisolenison).
• [x] 10. "Also I wish to see the building name in the menu (ex. Black Street, house 3)" (denisolenison).
• [x] 11. "I'd like to see buying buildings at first and then have option to buy whole towns, after that countries and the end game would be buying the whole earth" (MiraCZ).
• [x] 12. "I wish my interest went down as I paid my loan" (Pyrite19).

Added on the 26th

• [x] Highlight buildings that are buyable/rentable (cyberphlash)
• [x] Be able to sell buildings to pay off debt (cyberphlash)
• [x] Renovation part could include adding extra stores to the building? Which would increase the building's area and add 3m to its height that you would visually see on the map (Halftoneoscillator)
• [x] Loan system: "Bank gives you unlimited money, just keep taking billions/trillions, invest them into buying the biggest properties(to reduce lag), level up, take more loans, rinse and repeat." (efethu)
• [x] The ability to collapse the big window (not the bars). (Houdiniman111)
• [ ] "A separate timescale option. Currently it seems like the game speed option is making the full value happen every Y interval. While that's definitely going to be wanted if someone just wants to play this themselves, I also just want to see the numbers go up more consistently rather than in big chunks." (Houdiniman111)
• [x] "The pay off slider should probably default to 100%" (Houdiniman111)
• [x] "The ability to change the dollar format" aka localization of currency (Houdiniman111)
• [x] "The ability to setup automatic deposits/pay offs on your loans." (Houdiniman111)
• [x] "Variable interest rate, loan terms, etc. Loans are very basic, unlike actual loans, at the moment" (Houdiniman111)
• [x] "Interest actually based on balance rather than total" (Houdiniman111)
• [x] "A more detailed finance screen. Things like How much am I paying in interest? How much am I getting from subletting? Average subletting returns?" (Houdiniman111)
• [x] "Listing an address for a building rather than a generic GUID" (Houdiniman111)
• [ ] "A faster update rate." (Houdiniman111)
• [x] "I encountered issues where buildings weren't colored correctly after a time." (Houdiniman111)
• [x] "I bought a building and every building showed as owned, even ones way above my level. It didn't count as me owning or buying them and I couldn't do anything with them though." http://prntscr.com/uo1fjd (death2636) "Found an issue where buying some buildings that are split into parts cause you to gain the other section for 'free' but not the income from it." (throwaway040501)
• [x] "hotkeys" (Pyrite19)

[James103]

Here are some of my ideas:

• [x] 13. Make it so all payouts are taxed as if they were a day's worth of income, according to federal, state, and local rental income tax rates.
• [x] 14. Sometimes, two buildings may overlap, in which case buying one building sometimes buys the other building for free. Treat these buildings (with same ID) as one building and calculate their stats accordingly (including total net area and average height).
• [x] 15. An option to turn the game into a turn-based game, which can be accessed by selecting "Game Speed (payout interval): every turn". This enables the "End Turn" button in the UI, which instantly pays out and advances the clock by a day, while decoupling the in-game date from the real-life date. Note that the game would still progress in real time as usual, just that each turn you complete that way adds a day to the in-game clock (#27).
• [x] 16. An option to enable "safe loan limit" mode, which sets your loan limit such that your interest amount wouldn't exceed your net profits.
• [x] 17. Allow creating a geofence (polygon) which will then allow you to rent/buy all properties that are within the geofence. Note that stats (including level required and XP gain) are calculated as if the geofence was considered to be one building, which would limit how large the geofence can be based on your player level. This could tie into suggestion №11 by MiraCZ.

Thank you for this @James103 ! Really helpful! I updated your main item with other comments I found today. There will be some duplicates but I'm thinking of creating separate github issues for each after they have been considered and thought out. 👍

EDIT

I have decided to tick the boxes that I made issues for on github
