Item deconstruction
Has EA thought about adding the ability to deconstruct an item in Sim City Buildit? A new manufacturing plant that will deconstruct an item based on what it is. I.E. a BBQ would break down to its r...
@torstar23 Once an item is posted on the global market, it cannot be recovered. It is sold at market, deleted by the seller for 1 simbuck, or purchased by Daniel after 36 hours. As for deconstruction: it's a building game. Manufacturers don't 'deconstruct' their stock if it doesn't sell. It's the mayor's responsibility to manufacture appropriate amounts of items for their city and to sell on the global HQ according to market forces. If the market is flooded with chairs do you make chairs to sell? No. You make something else. Simple economics, supply and demand
There will never be any kind of feature that you are describing. It's supposed to mimic real life. Sort of.
@cricket4103 Very well stated, it honestly troubles me that the franchise is often sacrificed for all the extra curricular activities added to make a profit. At its core it’s a city building game that requires planning, resource management, development and decision making skills. The game is about building a vibrant city with a self sustaining and robust economy. It’s responding to challenges and adversity in a positive and productive manner...not pushing a reset button to correct a decision but learning to work through it and grow from the experience. Sadly I wished it mimicked real life more and sort of a whole lot less. Take care and stay safe.
