Business centre lights

Finally managed to join the billionaire's club today (small yay) but for a very short period of time, maybe five minutes, prior to this, my business centres were lit up from inside. Can anyone tell me what triggers this please?


congrats, just checked my leaderboard and your now #16 on my friends list from SH :!:

wish i could help you with your question but unfortunatly forgot how that works

    Thanks - unsurprisingly, you're #1 on my friends list, a mere 740,000,000 ahead of me. Your fingers must have fallen off, SH is such a bloody grind.
  • I don't mind it, I quite like it actually. It would be nice to be able to control them if possible.

    i was done with the event before it ended when introduced. up to 760,000,000 now. its taken months to get that far. #2 is at 340,000,000, i had a friend that topped at 2b and decided i would get there, im getting bored with it but now far enough (or ocd :lol: ) to see it through. the friend quit playing for a month so dropped the friend.

    i put the buildings togeather with current events and keep buying polo courts, gold palms(the 200 chair ones), tennis courts, and elegant grills to maximize payout. agreed, its been a grind and have over 200 of each listed item.

    glad you accepted me and been leaving you a prospector a day, in case the glitch hasn't shown that

    You've done impressively well for sure, I'll never catch you up but then I'm not trying to! Didn't know it was you leaving a prospector but I've certainly been returning the favour. Cheers for being my friend as well. :thumbup:

    No concrete insights to offer, but there was a previous thread on this topic dating back to last fall:

  • I'm not sure what causes it either but I love it when the business centres do light up. I get occasional objects animate for no reason in my town, my favourite is when my stone gargoyles stand up and stretch their wings repeatedly!
