This must be a bug/s

Well, ever since the new update the requirements for buildings and keys went up significantly, but in particularly one with ship. Every time ship requires nails it is always 50-60 nails, making this ...

My personal experience differs from yours. First of all, the nails aren't THAT bad, considering they take a total of 5 mins each to complete. That's shorter than most raw items, just not buildable in parallel. You can build 12 screws in an hour, so 48 screws takes 4 hours. I've done it, it's not as impossible as it sounds.

My Tokyo items are very random. I'd say just about even, if anything LESS cats than the other two. How many consecutive cats have you gotten? It could just be an unlucky streak...

I've also found no change in the availability of specialty parts. I've been able to get anything I need from HQ with a little patience. Of course, when you're looking for something it always feels like it's never there, no matter what it is. :-)

    Well I never said it's not possible to make that many nails, but point being, ONLY and ALWAYS NAILS comes with such an extremely high requirement.

    For the Tokyo items - I got 14 cats in a row and that is all I ever gotten

    For the last - expansion items I see 6 to 8 dozer blades compared to 1 exhaust or wheel, after the update as oppose to the other way around before the update. I do have to agree that what items you see does seams to depend on players level, which could affect everyone differently.

      I know what you meant about the nails. I'm just suggesting that their high requirements might be due to how easy they are to build. They are the only store items with such high requirements because they have the shortest total craft time. I've had a 10-lumber requirement, and they take 30 minutes each. That's 5 hours to build. 50 nails takes just over 4 hours. So maybe the requirements are loosely based on their time to build.

        The problem with 50 nails is not so much the time to make them as the storage space required to hold them while you make more.
