What changed with Halloween 2014 update (thanks to TSTOTopix and mrfy)

Thanks for sharing this. Do you have any video of the drive in theater's animation?

    I wish there was a way to permanently delete items from my inventory, like the castle walls from CoC. I need the space for my upcoming Halloween booty and quite frankly CoC left me cold, other than the paying buildings I don't want any of it.

    In fact I have lots of stuff from past events jammed into my inventory that I will never use. Can't we please just delete unwanted stuff and move on? That would be great...


    Your inventory doesn't fill up, why do you "need space?" Just ignore what you don't want. You never know, you might find a use for it later.

    Just got the update, the trees make me really happy :)

    8) Yeah, real nice to see the Fall season we don't have much of here in So.CA., & THOH theme is really sweet too...

    All of this was sincere consolation prize to salvage the day as our Dodgers season just met it's demise:hunf:

    Speaking of the menu, instead of searching through the unwieldy menu to find items I wanted to purchase more of, it used to be way easier to store an item I wanted more of, then add it back into play and continuing to add more until I got as many as I wanted. Now when you use up what it's in your inventory it doesn't let you "purchase" more automatically by continuing to add.

    I really wouldn't mind so much if the menu was easier to navigate. The decorations list just seems to go on and on forever, it usually takes 2 or 3 minutes to find what I'm looking for. I think if the menu were divided up even further (like all plants/trees/etc. under one category, all structures/town improvements like parking lots, lampposts, etc. under another category, all vehicle and non-paying buildings under another, and so on, it might alleviate the frustration of scrolling through 140+ items to find the one you want.
    dude have you tried hitting the arrow button? (same thing work in the build menu)

    Yes I have but the menu in particular that I am talking about is the decorations menu, which you don't show here - probably because it currently has @ 150 items in it. It's too much unorganized stuff that seriously delays game play.

    And I'm sure I'm not the only one out there who misses the feature that allowed you to store one of an item that you wanted more of and then continue re-adding the item to game play until you had the desired quantity. If you never used it, it was a great time saver.

    Sorry if that's a little unclear, I meant I needed the space in my town so I stored everything I could from CoC. But the sad fact is I don't want any of the junk I stored from that event. And right now 85% of my inventory is taken up by stuff that I haven't used since I got it for the simple fact that I don't like it and therefore will never put it in my town. Some of it is a year old now, it's just a bunch of garbage that I would just throw away if only they would give me a recycle bin. If you've ever had a garage sale then you know what I mean - unless you're a hoarder you don't want to have piles of garbage laying around that you have to dig through to find the stuff that you want, so why have to constantly scroll through a bunch of useless clutter every time you want to retrieve a desired item?

    I don't see a problem with adding a recycle function, in fact if for whatever unfathomable reason I decide I just gotta have a turkey walking around my town, EA could sell one back to me and make even more money than they already do.

    My apologies, I finally figured out how to work this. That's what I get for using an android, I just ain't icon-capable...

    Thanks for the tip!
