please provide me a button that...

I get why EA wouldn't do it, because this is "Tapped Out" and tapping your characters is the point of the game, but I have to agree with urlaub694... Personally, I now have 148 PCs in my game. It takes several minutes to assign tasks to all my toons. I enjoy this game for the writing/comedy of the quests, the "collecting" aspect, I love decorating/town-design, I enjoy the events and associated tasks... But I'm really getting burned-out tapping 148 characters just for generic tasks (I don't mind quest-related tasks)... Even if I only run them on 24hr shifts, devoting 10 minutes just to cycle through my characters isn't fun anymore.

So yeah, I'm voting +1 with the OP asking for a way to select a time and "assign all". Make it only available after a certain level or number of characters, that's fine (like L50 or 100 toons). If you set your Button to 24hrs and a character doesn't have that, then they don't get assigned (you can either reset the Button to another time or just manually set off the outlying character(s)).

I would like a button that would allow us to move characters around. For instance, if you have a character doing an interesting stationary task, you would be able to move them along with the associated object to anywhere else. I know that the Family Guy game has this, but it only works before assigning tasks.

^^ This +1, too ^^
