Debris clean up

Do Homer and Lisa still occasionally get donuts for the clean up Springfield task?

Thanks


Yes - You're welcome
  • I've noticed that only Lisa finds donuts. Homer doesn't. And if he ever did, he'd eat it.
  • I think EA looked at donuts gained by "cleaning up" space debris as an error. I watched my friend gain 10 donuts from his space debris. When I "cleaned up" an even bigger pile of space debris (well over 100 pieces) and didn't get a single donut. I originally thought that it was because I was using a Kindle, but my friend hasn't pulled any donuts from his space debris since the day that watched him get 10.
  • I started on iOS the first day this game was released, played for about a week or two, left for about a year and a half

    and joined on Android.

    I have never received a donut from cleaning up debris, this Is even after hoarding about 120 pieces of space debris.

    Two days ago, while clearing up about 4 pieces of space debris, I FINALLY GOT ONE!

    Terrible luck, but now I know that It's possible.

    Now I can't wait to get another one In 2-3 years. :roll:

    Cheers!

    Haven't tested it recently, but I swear you get more donuts if you're using both Homer and Lisa. I'd let my debris pile up for a few months before getting around to clearing any of it and probably got a good 10 donuts for my effort (which is more than I ever got from clearing all the original debris in the game).

    A month or so later I went to clear it out again, but I was only using Homer this time. After shooting through 15-20 pieces with no bonuts, I waited till I had both characters free and the debris started spawning bonuts again (only 3-4 that time around, but I didn't have as large of stacks).

    It is possible EA dialed it down on us, but it's worth trying to have both characters free before cleaning up your stacks.
  • I've gotten at least 6 or 7 from space debris. Just got one tonight. It coincided with Sideshow You donuts which have been super rare for me. Terrestrial debris didn't yield much when I cleared in the process of acquiring new plots. I decided to hoard about 70 pieces towards the end of acquiring new plots. Clearing them en masse when the rocket came into play yielded a couple. I have gotten 1 frosted from clearing in Krustyland. I only own 20% of the plots in Krustyland due to an early 5 pie rating & a lack of things to fill the space. If they ever overhaul KL status I think I'm gonna hold onto some of that trash. Like the Krusty artifact feel to some of it.
  • i used to get donuts every now and then. but so far none from the space debris. my only problem is when they clean areas where i want to keep the debris :D
