Job Manager - Unemployment Office Request - Updated Request 7/30

Back in September 2015 when the unemployment office was given the "Job Manager" ability to assign all the residents of Springfield to a specific timed task, there was an unused icon in the code that showed EA was thinking of assigning a "visual task" option. Here is the icon.

I ask EA to please reconsider this option and implement it into the game. I am sure it will give a certain level of revitalization to Tapped Out that would be greatly appreciate by the players and maybe add new ones. The animated tasks add enjoyment to the game, make it so.

Update: In addition to this request about animated tasks being assigned from the unemployment office, it would be nice to tap a building and assigned a character to a task there so you can see the buildings animation. Pretty please with sugar on top.

    It would be great if we can choose what each character does per task. You want everyone to be animated, I want all the characters to go to one location so I can clear all 200+ characters in one tap, tomato, tomato.

    Maybe not all in one place, but 2 or 3... Ahhhh.... The ease of collecting.

    If you plan it right, certain buildings can be made to do that. Here is the Walking Kwik E Mart with well over 400 characters doing a 4 hour job via the the UI office


  • If I send everyone on 24hr jobs.
    I first set Baby Marge to Hang Out With Best Friend Ling and Virgil Simpson to Propose to Mabel Simpson.
    If I don't Ling and Mabel do their 24hhr jobs and Baby Marge and Virgil have nothing to do.

    And because the UO does not rush paired jobs, I have to get them out manually then put them back in.

    Agreed.
    It's no good sneaking around in the dark with a torch so you don't trip over stuff.
