Office of unemployment suggestion - force animated jobs

Or you could store the Chez Guevara. Then they couldn't go there.

Oh awesome! Didn't even think about it... Thanks for the great tip!

Interesting...shows the differences in people’s preferences...I quite PREFER when people go to the same place...makes it take less time to tap on them. I wish the tasks were sorted with the common ones within a given time frame FIRST, like Swellerado for the 4 hour, or Magic Academy for the kids’ 8-hour...

I really hate that they send around 50-60 characters to Chez Guevara on the 8hr job, and my game always crash when collecting (I play on old slow iPad)

How hard would it be to program the Office of Unemployment building to prefer animated jobs

Well I can tell you're not a programmer. It could be very hard indeed.
I'm working on a program right now that's child's play compared to Tapped Out and it took me all day to figure out how to do 1 simple thing correctly - and it was only 5 lines of code. And I had to ask for help in a programming forum as to why it didn't work right.
Programming languages are all too often so poorly and confusingly documented that they might as well not be documented at all. It's like "I before E except after C with a few minor exceptions..."
Here's a few of those minor exceptions that start with A:
aatheist, abeigh, abetalipoproteinaemia, abetalipoproteinemia, ableism, ableist, abortifacient, abreid, abseil, abseiler, abseiling, absence seizure, absenteeism, absenteeist, absolute weight, absorbefacient, absorbifacient, acclimatisation, acephalocheiria, acetylcysteine, acetyldihydrocodeine, acheilia, acheilous, acheiria, acheiropody, acheiropoieton, acheirous, achilleic, acidoglycoprotein, acierage, acierate, acieration, acies, acleioproctic, acleistocardia, acleithral, acmaeid, acmeist, acneiform, acroleic, acrolein, acroleinated, aculeiform, adenosylhomocysteinase, adenosylhomocysteine...

You've only got 60 characters? Send the minimum to the building then task the rest manually. I've got 320 characters and counting for Odin's sake!

No, I have around 380 characters, but 60 of them always go to the same 8hr task at Chez Guevara, and always makes my game crash when collecting. I say 60 but I don't know, maybe around 40-70 (not sure).I wish the 8hr tasks were more various, to spread the characters around...
But I know the best solution would be to change ipad!

Re: @roman65 Ya I still use my Walking Kwik-e-Mart to send most of my town (450+) on the 4h task

But his issue is that his game crashes when he taps them. So...

You don't HAVE to use an iPad. There are much cheaper new devices that will considerably out perform an old iPad. I just picked up a Lenovo Smart Tab for $60 that has decent performance. It's not as good as my iPad Mini 2, but it's faster than my old Samsung Galaxy Tab A (which also has a dying battery I've discovered).
