Should i get the teleporters?

I've used them in neighbors towns so I would definitely buy them
  • I've had a pair for a while. I keep one in SH with the 7 buildings that produce materials. The other is in my main town next to the employment office so after I start my SH jobs I can send everyone else off to work on what ever length job fits that particular time.

    They are a brilliant addition to my town, makes travelling around it much easier, especially after how big my town is now! Plus, the added 1% bonus isn't too bad either :P


    Is that 1% bonus per teleporter or total for all four?


    Pffft...I wish! 0.5% for Zeta and Theta but I do think EA should add a 0.5% to Omega and Alpha!

    Nice to have, but not a must have


    Agreed, it isn't a must-buy but it is great for people with huge towns! I wouldn't have bought it, but I got 80 donuts just this week from KEM farming and a mystery box! :D

    the fact that we can choose which teleport is the destination is fantastic! it will be much easier to get around.

    Remember that clicking on the Monorail Central Terminal's "bulletin board" (or whatever it is) will take you to the train yard like a teleporter. So it's like having 5 teleporters!



    I'm not sure what you mean. When I click it, it just asks if I want to ride the monorail. How do you do this?



    you might have your bulletin board too close to the subway station itself. Put it away from the front of the station, off a few squares. It should take you to the rail yard. Tapping on the station gets you the monorail trip.
  • I am surprised that people like them so much. I really don't have any desire for them. I have all the land, but I don't feel like it takes that much time to get around.

    When I first got them back in 2014 I wondered if I'd made a mistake, but as events changed the LZ (or stayed endlessly on the SH tunnel) I realized how very useful they were. My BIG complication is that I play five different large towns with five different layouts and my overwhelmed brain finds it hard to answer questions such as "Just where did I put the Retirement Castle in this particular town?"

    I am delighted there are now 4 teleporters to keep track of key areas!

    I feel the same way. I rather save the donuts for Halloween event.

    I'm with you guys. Two flicks and I'm zipping across town, and I always see things along the way that need attention.
    Sci-Fi stuff is cool though, and they're from a great episode! but I think I'll pass.

    no, 1% total for all 4


    Specifically, 0.5% for Zeta and Theta.

    Alpha and Omega do not have multipliers.

    I checked my multiplier before and after getting Zeta and Theta (already had Alpha and Omega) and my multiplier went up by 1%. It must be 1% for all four.


    Place (or remove them) individually and check your multiplier in between. Each if Zeta and Theta have 0.5% independently.

    Oh, okay. I misinterpreted what you said to mean Zeta and Theta had 0.5% together.
