TheoTown files are located under such directories:
▪︎ Windows: C:\Users\(insert username)\TheoTown
▪︎ Linux: /home/$USER/TheoTown
▪︎ MacOS: /user/TheoTown
▪︎ Android: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/info.flowersoft.theotown.theotown/files
Reinstalling the game for Android will delete all files, unless you decide to keep the files when prompted by uninstaller.
Alternatively, you can access the files through in-built TheoTown file manager, accessible through the in-game menu.
You can find your plugin, music, region and city files there as well as logs for debugging purposes.
^ Go to the direcotry listed there @thorny flower
I know the problem is solved
I cannot access the files because of the Android 11 Update
But still thanks
i want to built fright trains and i build a station in my industrial area so where do i build the other station, like near the commercial area? bc my commercial areas are locked in by residential buildings
You could build the other one anywhere
Oh ok thx
wat
I can't use my old forum account because I forgot my old username, and the recover password button will not work.
Make your own? or download a plugin that has 50k
Change your opinion cuz it's overpowered
what is this thing? I've been playing for about a year and I still don't understand what it is
Crime
But crime have another indicator
So someone know what is this thing?
Hi there, a couple of questions. I have a world on the android version of the game. Can I play on that same map on my pc if I sign in to my account? Also, the pc requirements for the game seem kinda high, like the cpu and the ram needed. Should a Dell Inspiron (intel, core i7, 16gb ram, nvidia mx350) be enough to run it without my fan blasting from the cpu usage? Thanks!
I believe it's graffiti

Just use those locations
ah okay thank you. and do you know about the pc specs?
If your phone can handle it your PC should
But worst case you could refund the game if it doesn't work well on your PC
ah okay didn't know about the refund, thanks!!
You're welcome
don't make the creator unhappy and he won't make you unhappy
Hmm? How does that relate
About refund
If I recall refunds are handled by steam
Rly?
Uh ok
It has several
But police close to this building
Nah it's crime
It is some people doing graffitti
Where it described?
Wdym
Thx
These are criminal signs
Vandalism
There are multiple crime indicators since there are multiple diferent crimes
Er
Hello, I have a few questions about the Theotown files. The game has a size of 10 GB and I do not know why, even though I have 250 plugins and the most plugins are less than 1 Mb. I also do not have a lot of maps. So my question is where the big files could come from.
you got a lot of regions perchance?
if youve played for a long time
check the size of log.txt
The log.txt is 1.1 Mb
Ok but there is another problem
The folder cannot be accessed due to the file migration of Android
Is there any way to acces them from my phone?
I found a bug!
Nice, #bugs-n-crashes
itshould be accessible with tt's in game file explorer
and it should tell you the size as well
Ik
actually idk if it does that for folders
I already looked and could not find anything big
Sorry but it does not
I am searching for some solutions right now
Still thanks for the help
Ehm, I just found that the Theotown folder is only 400 Mb...
Eventhough the App Information shows that the files are 9Gb...
thats pretty weird
It gets even weirder...
219.3 GB!?
Well, I am going to try to find the problem

that doesnt sound right
is your phone rooted by chance?
think that causes some issues
that cant be right
Is a rooted device the same if you have the debug mode of Android on?
no clue
Could be ad cache, no idea
I have cleared the cache
Btw I did the rooting today to see how big the folder is
However this is rooting with the help of an app
How to clean ad cache
I have already rooted with my laptop
Go to App info and than to storage
Well there should be an icon that says clean cache
It is on the RIGHT
Do not click the LEFT one as it will clear all the data
I remember my phone had too many storage use and connat see anything until I open phone storage in pc and delete lots of ad videos there I found
Oh thank you, I will do it to my aunts phone I guess
Could you use the clear cache function on your phone. Would that not work?
👀
And here we come again to my other Problem hahahaha
10 GBs
Where those 10 GB came from? 😂
Hold on @agile mango hey didn't you have the issue where your game had a massive file size?
Uhhhh no, that was not me, I think it was chipper
Yeah
Hmmm then my apologies
Rip
I don't want to bug him right now
I am sorry that he left
No problem
It is a shame that he left, hopefully he'll come back once he works everything out though
I don't remember is chipper fixed the problem or the problem fixed itself, but I think at one point the problem was gone
That is all I can remember, and maybe I'm wrong
I wanna say some update fixed it


Mine Theotown folder is only 400 Mb though... and that makes it even more complicated
Hey guys, did anyone manage to get this working on Apple M1?
I'm getting some error related to the JNA (Java Native Access) library.
whenever i open the plugin store its buffering, can anyonr tell me why and how to fix this problem?
Is it your internet?
😂
The data is not that big
Or should bot be that big ag least
no, my internet is working fine.
Build cementeries
Admins does this game have premium version on ios? I dont wanna see micro-transactions, i want pay full price like steam
yes, if ios is pay to play then is doesnt have microtransactions
are you on ios?
👎
iOS went freemium awhile ago, I believe
I need some help. I'm on the moon and trying to build mines for the shiny rocks. But everytime I place a mine, it just disappears and my money is lost. What's happening?
What is the purpose of connecting cities? Is there import and exporting of goods? Can power and water be shared between cities?
In singleplayer mode, yes! You can share power and water between your cities
My game crashes on startup
Game window appears with pitch black color and closes when i try to open game
Pc specs? Did you try installing 64 bit java?
i have 64bit java
where i can send specs?
Here
ok
AMD Ryzen 5 2600X Six-Core Processor 3.80 GHz
16,0 GB Ram
AMD Radeon HD 7800 Series
AMD High Definition Audio Device
Hmm ok, could you send the log.txt and the crash.txt files here
i will try
they doesn't appear
Did you check in C:\Users[Yourname]\TheoTown ?
there is log.txt but no crash.txt
Send that one then
So the devs can look to what is going on
also i'm using windows 11
Oh
maybe this is issue?
oh
Old
Okay I installed newer version and it worked
try to use x86 JRE or wait until TT will have JNA updated
(I have it crashing with JNA errors too on Steam version)
Theotown needs 64bit java
Hello, I wanted to ask if deleting Theotown, would cause deleting of pictures in the gallery, online regions and more
The folder "info.flowersoft.theotown.theotown" itself is only 400 Mb, but the game still somehow takes 10 Gb of storage. Would it be enough if I copy the folder, delete the game, reinstall it and than add the files?
cracked version? hmm
Send diamonds
can someone pls tell me?
As long as you copy the files and paste them back it should work fine
ok thanks, but what is with all the thing that are online? (gallery photos, online regions... etc)
@mild jacinth sorry for pinging
Those aren't connected
No problem
ARM64 java crashes, X86_64 java on Mac == x86 (Mac can’t run 32bit apps anymore)
Uh can you transfer data from one device to another without copying files ?
(im very lazy to do that)
no
Why is my Account banned?
What did you do to get it banned?
Can i restore the extra content that i buy ?
Idk i just cant login to my account
I dont get any email from it
Yeah as long as your connected to your plays account
What's the username?
TheDarkFrax
Ok thx for the info
I can't find anything are you sure you signed up?
hm, wait
Did you sign up before?
I remember created a account before
Wait
My email address has already been used
so that means i already got an account
@mild jacinth can you search my account using my email address?
I searched it using the member search
i can't access emails
that would be for a forum admin
ah ok
Hey it’s not sending me a email to reset my password For TheoTown and the civilians cars aren’t showing
first one takes a quite time sometimes and for second you might have to check your graphic settings if cars are turned off
Yea I went into the settings and I didn’t see draw cars or anything about cars in my graphics
And I redownloaded the game so I could get the cars back bc they only show when I do the roads
I dont get it, show an image of cars arent on road but there are rci buildings
well cars don't show on roads if you zoomout from the map. Otherwise your game might lag too much
Is it showing when you zoom in?
no it won’t show when I zoom in and out
It only shows when I go to the road creation thing
is this open, in graphics section of settings
no
open it
when i press screenshot, nothing happens and i can't find where the pic is
it's not in my gallery and not even in my theotown folder
You have to grant file permissions to TheoTown via phone app settings
oh... it worked now after file permission is allowed, thx m8
No problem, have fun :D
How do I get my old maps back since I deleted theotown and redownloaded it
If you didnt backup them, then you cant
go in your TheoTown files and take city folders and save them at some private file but you have to do this after every save of city
if it is a region go back and save the whole region file
I guess
I forgot my theotown username, how do i login then?
if you remember the join date, find it here :
https://forum.theotown.com/memberlist.php
i can't use alt+tab to switch windows
That's a potential issue with the library the game uses (libgdx)
It could potentially be addressed by version 1.10.06: https://forum.theotown.com/viewtopic.php?p=177650#p177650
If it is custom made region then you cant so that
Okay
how do i do it not custom?
You should go your game files and find the right backup file of the city
Okay
if you know your username you can just request a password reset right
did you do the activation email
They just keep saying "submited form invalid"
Ofc
I cant always reset my password only for login right? They just saying invalid,invalid,and invalid
2 days later,even im putting the right password,i cant login again
They reset my password at 3 am last time
But finnaly they can reach me out for 3 days
I probably forget the capital letter on my username
@vast hare sorry for ping,are you the forum administrator?
Or you know who can fix the "invalid" login even i enter the right username and password?
I think Its PhpBB issue and "probably" can be fixed
you should use the contact forum administrator button
Yes
Hello... I accidentally bought a plugin with diamonds... can i refund or something?
Im done with this,do i need to do a password reset everytime i login?
My password is not wrong
Wait... I think i need to eneable desktop website for it
Is there any way to move my theotown data from my old phone to the new one ?
@severe pine maybe you have an answer ?
if you go into the file manager within theotown you can export the cities and regions folder
then just import than on your new device
What does it mean?
Vandalism. Call the cops
Kk
try to repaint the building. but for good, call the cops.
Ok thx
Anyone know where this sound is coming from? There’s nothing there
idk, from your pocket
Restart Theotown
Please read my DM,i was waiting for reply
Idk how to put attachment on "contact us"
And probably the forum was invalid when i send "contact us" form
Have you checked your email?
Or spam inbox?
You can try login in game to check if your account is registered or not
Im not contacting him via email,just discord dm
What? Im not talking about it
Forum account
From what I remember, forum account is connected to the game
no it's on #suggestions
No, you have to use Psuggest command in #bot-commands
NO dude
That's a wrong channel
And it's not smart to use like that
Dear god

como se consigue el conocimiento para la DSA????
#language-bar or english please
Hey guys
Why is my game freezing, frequently
Like freezing spams
If I delete data I'm afraid all my progress will be lost
If you uninstall you will lose your save data
VERY USEFUL INFO
Watch the caps
what actually happens in the plugin store when i upload a preview with a small size, it gets bigger?
KiB != KB
It reports thumbnail size for web version of the store
Actual in-game store thumbnail size is not reported
kb to kib is not that big different.
Answered?
Advertising is against rules
I didn't do any of that. xdd
Right
Stop the cap
contact a board administrator for more information
do i look like one
this is discord
aren't you a board administrator?
I got water pipe attached to another city, which has was more water than this newly started city, but why does it still require local waters? Same thing happens with electricity and wastes
you have to actually export/import the water as well
you can do so from the city information panel
How can I download free theotown on pc?
Does anybody here has free theotown on their pc?
It cost monieee
I belibe
Yes I saw that, but anyway to download it free on pc?
No
My cousin wants to, stupid boy. He spend all his money on fortnite.
:/
Fornite 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Yes.
Put him down
I feel bad for him, such a bad choice
It his own fault
Yes
:P
there is no free version of tt for pc
theres only the steam version
you could use an android emulator but it wouldnt be a great experience
So the untouchable button will lock the house looks?
I want to make an old village but it keeps upgrading it to become a apartment
It prevents the game from auto-building better buildings on-top of it
But it seems still building it
And can we do bulk select (untouchable)?
No
sounds like a lua plugin if i ever saw one
I think one of ians plug-ins does that
Yeah pretty sure there was one
When/will there be another big content update coming to the game.
How do I build up the supplies necessary to go to space. I have everything but can't get the supplies passed 3298/5000
Build oil building, read the tips 145 in #tips-n-tricks
Duc Beauregard#2210 was banned for the following reason: Fraudulent advertisment.
I want make people walk in the street how is that
Use kingtut pedestrian plugin
If you want to use untouchable do manual build
Because zone will always upgrade
@tacit relic thanks pro
Where does the theotown saves screenshot
When i try loggin in my account IN the game it just says "Connection Error" and the Plugin searcher stays on infinite loading.
Install 64 bit java
this one?
probably
@vast hare It worked, you're amazing i love you!!
Tem alguém que conhece e o grupo do Theotown brasileiro?
I have a question
what kind of memory does the game mean when it says heap memory?
vram or ram?
it will be good if there's option to have the toolbar at the bottom. useful for big screen phones
Forgot my username and I'm not getting a password reset sent to my email any thoughts? (I wasn't banned)
Also cant register?
Can anyone help me
use a different email, the email u entered is already used as it says
its my email tho
thats the problem is I already had an account
And I cant reset my password
The email usually take days to get sent
Just wait
Or ping a mod, but i suggest just wait first.
Try to search it in spam folder
How do I add a suggestion?
Use the Psuggest command
Ok, thanks
Alright
i hope this is the right channel. Im sorry if not. I build a city (my first city) and it worked pretty good. untill.. i build this new "part" of the city.. its now like 1,5hours realife time ago. i didnt do anything different to the other city parts. but they dont build houses there. What the hell did i wrong? i tryd google but didnt find there anything helpfull. (sorry for my bad english ^^")
Check the demand graphs on the left
It might be because of a lack of commercial zones
Im having an "outofbounds" Lua glitch ingame, is there any way to fix it?
Unless you're making a lua plugin probably not
Check your inbox,and if they send "email activation" from theotown,just click it and Try to login with same email address
Is there neighborhood commercial in the online version?
I'm playing with friends on a region and I can see animations of people coming and going from my city but there's no trade in the neighborhood commercial despite being connected by road and power grid.
It’s shocking for me to see TheoTown documents size inflate over 1 gb. Is there anyway to reduce the file size. I tried looking on the reachable file and non of them is over 10 mb. I couldn’t find any solution of the problem, or any mention as a matter of fact, in the internet. If it’s not possible I might have to delete TheoTown entirely because storage on my iPad is very limited.
Did you download any plugin?
hi, you know why i can´t buy theotown in steam, pc
My theotown is using 5gb
it says that i have card error, but i don´t
Oh really? I downloaded few plugins but looking into its file doesn’t seem to be too large. Maybe I could try deleting them to see if it gets better.
I will say that sounds more like a steam issue than an us issue
Let us know when it gets to working
what should i do im to lazy and brain fried english is not my mother tongue
you probably have a duplicate plugin
It's been a while
And I forgot how to add custom music...
So... How do you add Custom music again?
Both the Disaster and the gameplay Music?
Ping if you want so I'll be notified
maybe just put .mp3 files on the music folder
It wont
what should i do?
Hm, it appears as if your windows username contains invalid characters, which confuses Java lookup for the steamworks dll
so i need to change my windows username?
That would fix the issue
i tried to reinstall java and now installer isn't running
Uhm, what road layouts do you recommend that handles traffic very well?
Either be simple or effective or anything since my roads are just usually a l i n e
And it causes a lot of traffic jam which, I can't solve because I lack the creativeness
Feel free to ping if you want to notify me
Thank you in advance
@vast hare I am locked out of my forum account due to a password change and email change can you help me please

Hi there. Just started the game but when i click on the planet icon i cannot get back to my town. How do i do that? Need help please
Are you building in region or it's a single city?
You just need to click on where your town is and click on play
Use Psuggest in #bot-commands
Thanks
Does anyone know a water barrage/dam plugin or any way to make it with default things?
Why are my inhabitants dying en masses? There seems to be no event, I have a lot of hospitals, and it is sandbox, why did 1000 people just randomly die??
And it keeps going down, I've paused the game cuz it seems like the whole city is dying
Anyone on who can help??
It may be that your old buildings are getting replacem an thus slowing romving your pop until the new buildign finishes building
Why my railways is nod used
wat
Any public transportation is made only for decoration anf happiness. And your railway station is not used, because it's, probably, not near residents.
Do you have cemeteries?
I have a lot
Death wave
Well that's alarming, it did bounce back to 52 tho
guys is there a way i can transfer plugins from a device to another device
You can simply transfer the plugin folder to the other device
*do you mean forum or store plugins
Inhabitants aren't simulated with that level of depth as far as I'm aware
Then they moved out?
Ok i need help
I just downloaded back TT and I find the file for TT
How to bring this file
How long ago did you uninstall tt
Try checking if the theotown folder still exists
If it doesn't you can't get it back
Last yr mate
I managed to save it by moving into my sd card then turning it into zip file to save space
But is there an alternative? I still save the plugin files, regions, and my data.
There isn't
No cloud save
Only way is manually exporting plugins and cities
If you have the files you can import them into tt
Nope, got hospitals all over the city
Oof sorry for ping
Instead of dying they could just be leaving for another reason
Check their happiness maybe
I need help guys, my residents TTT always get 25% health happines when i manually build it even tho i have 8×8 hospital near them.how do i fix it?
whats the warning
I've never seen that file before
@severe pine any ideas?
Did you get the game from steam?
Yeah
no clue
I'm just not familiar with having ever seen that file
@vast hare little help here? I know the game had one false positive for a virus, but I've never seen this file name before
@burnt shard can you verify that's the file name please?
There's one file most that it says dangerous, but it's not. What's the name of file it's saying is dangerous?
Does it show that?
Well like I said, there is a file that most anti-viruses hit on (mine included did when I downloaded the game) I can only imagine that it's a false positive and you can just click ignore
Steam is the only option on PC, but you could always get the mobile version. But I assure you if it's the file I think it is, the game is perfectly safe
You can ask anyone who has it on PC
That's the only as fair as virus programs go. That's why that file name you said was so odd to us
looks like it straight blocked the file while it was still downloading
yeah, it's a false positive
oh its ziggo safe online
it just filters internet
you can let it through in the ziggo one and do a scan with your other antivirus if you want reasurrance
idk i dont have ziggo
trold
um
was trying to generate a usa map on the "even bigger" setting so i could maximum building space
and my game crashed
Thats normal
Well it says 'java.jang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space'
So the Out of memory there tells it
Ye
oh
You can try deleting Regions or some plugins
bruh
Im unsure it works like that
im no pro but
@elder cairn you know the difference between disk memory and RAM?
N o 🙂
ram? 32 gb?
yes
idk then
i just want to know, how many plugins do you have?
Java doesn't by default use all the ram you have so that sometimes causes kn TheoTown to Crash, specially when making regions. To fix it, you have to manually increase the heao size that java can use
That doesn't mean that the entire memory is available to the JVM
https://stackoverflow.com/a/2739605
i use alot but forget to disable them
how can i do that?
Should really be configurable in TT tbh
i think textures from plugins can also reduce the jvm.
That's just VRAM
which is managed diffrently iirc
i never had that issue with 0 plugin.
even bigger region generation requires a lot of memory
I'm guessing you load the entire region into memory when generating
you need all the information to generate a good region
for example, I have 2 Gb allocated as XmX and it's sufficient to generate a "even bigger" region
sounds like worse results
Привет
So the ram that the java VM is running is the VRAM?
no thats where opengl textures are stored
game logic is stored in ram
No, the issue comes when Im trying to generate "Even bigger" regions
yeah just too much ram usage
And I think it is also struggling to load some regions
if you have ram i suggest you change the java default heap size
I have 14 GB lol
yeah so java uses like 2gb by default
Ah
I uninstall it and downloaded again but it still a 32 bit application for some reason, that means that the maximum I can add is 4 GB right?
thats odd
could be
youll have to search how to set system variables
the stackoverlfow doesnt say
D"mn, I barely know what java is
well basically it makes a virtual machine every time you use it
Im cheking some information from the java website and it says that it has something to do with... Internet explorer?
what
Like, here is says that If im using an internet explorer of 32 bits, and windows 64 bits, I should download java 32 bits
Wait hold on, if Java is using IE, Windows 11 isnt deleting IE?
that doesnt make any sense
could be a translation error
practically all computers are 64 bit
youshould get the 64 bit install
Well, I dont know what is happening
tt doesnt work properly with 32 bit java either
It says the same in english
32 bits software in 64 bits machine, java, what the f""""
64 bit machines can run 32 bit software as compatability
but thats for when youre using a 32 bit browser
you probably arent
I though it was normal that Java was appearing as 32 bits
I am
Sooo... I just download the 64 bits version of IE?
There is a microsoft page for that
32 bits version
probably fine anyways
then get the 64 bit version?
Welp
Does anyone know why when I take a screenshot of the map, I check my files and I don't see the capture anywhere?
What are you on?
if I'm not mistaken if you play on mobile the image appears by default in the Image Gallery
Emulator, not to say pc, I have the android theo town, but it emulates it from a pc, and well, it detects it as a pc because in the settings the section appears: "Keys" and then there I can configure or assign keys to various actions
does the emulator have a gallery?
Well, if it is not an emulator, that is, the pc emulates it, because it is a chromebook ;-;
Yeah I'm really not sure where'd they'd wind up using an emulator
If you don't have it, if you have Windows 10, you can take a screenshot with Xbox Game Bar
I don't have windows 10
F, and maybe what if you use the Windows application: Screen Clipping
Exists since Windows 7 if I'm not mistaken
This is the same as with the captures or screenshots
Or the chromebook's built in screenshot tool
Exactly
Well, yes, that's what I do to show my cities, but because they are very large, I would like a screenshot of the entire map to be taken :/
Do you play in a region, or in an individual city?
It also depends on the size of the map
Normally individually, but the same thing happens with a region
Ok, but what about the size of the map?
Sometimes you just have to take what you can get
that seems to be the limits of using an emulator
The size of the map that I am using to create my city that is there in the background, is huge, and the region that I can create is the same size
Since taking a screenshot of a city from a small map is easier than taking a whole screenshot from a giant map.
unfortunately
I see
It would be better to use TheoTown on a normal Android device, or buy it on Steam, to play it on PC
The bad thing is that since it is chromebook, I cannot download .exe things, therefore, steam, and I do not have a phone that supports theo town well, apart from that I am already used to the theo town of pc, or of emulator you could say 😄
Well we're glad you can play the game, but those sadly are the limits
Yes the limits of using a Chromebook, but just playing TheoTown is enough
Yep, I have to adapt to it in a few months that I can buy a pc since it is windows
Just play it and enjoy it, and when you have your Windows pc, you might have more possibilities.
Exactly :)
Okay, thanks for the help :)
No problem
Hi, I’m pretty new to the game. I noticed that you can connect energy and water to different regions. Except I always encounter the same problem which is that I’ll continue the energy and water throughout the next region but it won’t supply the buildings… is that normal or is there something I’m missing…
You will have to actually export and import the water/energy from the cities information panels
Can you show what error it gives by clicking on the error button
It's a fault by the plugins creator
OK
Have you tried installing the latest drivers on your computer and have a OpenGl version of atleast 2.1?
yeap, I tried it and apper the same
Send me the readme text
Hello there, it's a honor to see that you're playing our game TheoTown 🙂
/ Troubles running the game? ________________________________________________
In case you have trouble running the game please try to install Java manually
(e.g. from https://www.java.com/download/). After the installation you may have
to restart your PC for the installation to complete.
If you have tried that but still are receiving error messages you may want to
search for updates for you graphics card and install them.
For Intel GPUs it seems to be a solution to use a specific version of Java:
https://forum.theotown.com/viewtopic.php?t=11148
In case you have trouble with too small UI because of high DPI display you may
want to enable DPI compatibility mode by windows for TheoTown.exe
(Right click on it->Properties->Compatibility->High DPI settings
->Override DPI setting with "System"). The way on how to do that may vary
dependent on OS and language.

The game will save any progress in C:\Users\your username\TheoTown
Maps and plugins are interchangeable with the Android and iOS versions of the
game.
Do you have java?
Anyone knows how to reduce traffic?
I believe public transport is one of the ways, if I'm not mistaken
Can you please send what Graphics Card are you using
I'm not sure if this is really a bug but everytime i use in-game's screenshot it doesn't save on my device
How to fix?
Try checking the schreenshots folder
have you enabled tt to access storage?
You should install 64bit java manually
Ok thanks for the help
Now! How to fix this.
if this is your plugin
you will have to adjust the handle of the frames
its always overlapped into another tile
but because water was drawn diffrently before it wasnt visible
it's happened since the April 2021 update
"water was drawn different" is this also the reason the stream plugin now shows black
Yes
Before water used to be drawn everywhere under the city
Now it is drawn as tiles
This means that you can have custom water tiles
But also means that canal plugins will have void
Because those used to be just transparent tiles
And because it's drawn as tiles it's also getting drawn over the ships with improperly aligned frames
As a plugin creator I am now wondering how am I goin to make something similar without gettin a void
use water texture
you can use the draw water tag for that
if set to true, water will be drawn under the tile
That's new but I'm goin make now, my laptop charger is dead and this place I'm currently at is the worse at delivering packages.
It was added when the change was made
How to gather rocket supplies
Thank
I can't watch ads to get diamonds... I've got good connection with Internet and app restarting ain't a solution
Any tips?
The same happens if I wanna buy plugins by watching ads
I get the same
But what I do, is that I play like a minute and then I go back to advertising
There's a cooldown time @torpid path
How long?
It happens to me every day since a few weeks, so I don't think that it works as it should
Yes bro, you have to wait
A few weeks? Really?
Wait what there's a cool down?
meh if you buy it for the first time maybe
5/15 seconds by my research
@smoky grotto so for me even a few days of waiting doesn't help
Do you have some sort of adblcoker or VPN installed in your hoone. That could be blocking advertisments to be shown
@viscid moat you can ask here
Thanks for telling me!
No problem ^^
help for my city does not generate more money help
Check to see what you're spending too much on
How I do it is that I am new to playing and I do not understand the game so well. Can you tell me how I do it?
Yes, but it'll be abit!
Can a commercial have got a price?
You have to click or tap the money icon to see the financial panel
Here, the green side will show how much income your city is getting from taxes, and the red side will show you how much your city is spending in maintenance costs
You have to find a balance where you are earning enough money so that you generate an income, in my case, Im getting more money that Im spending, so I generate an income
?
You can try lowering the money you are spending in some services, or rising taxes (Keep in mind that these two options may have an impact in the inhabitants happiness)
Sorry, I don't understand your question, what do you mean?
You want to build only commercial buildings?
no, I want to know if a commercial building can have a price
(if i define it in the json)
Wait, let me check
As far I know, these two values can change the price, but the "price" tag says it is not RCI, so I don't think you can change it, but Im seeing that some plugins have some costs variations in them, so I will create a little plugin real quick to see if Im wrong
thx
:0
You can change it
nice
I change mine from 100 to 150
:D
Pls ignore the fail I made with the graphics, this is why you have to be sure your background is transparent
because i havent got my phone here.. may you check my plugin if its working? (if ill finish it?)
lol xD, doesnt matter ;) the price changed
nice :>
Yes
The space?
Ah, yes

s p a c e ( Im leraning english for 5 years)

Nah, no problem 😅

Check monthly income maybe
https://forum.theotown.com/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=2965&sid=b43ade06bd82bdfaf5655ffbe30b0df5 In case you need this, here is the link to the TheoTown forum in the "getting started" page for making plugins, I recommend you to read the "Copyright" section and the "How to write a plugin" section
¿?
im coding my own plugin..(i pixeld yesterday 2 "buildings") (not very beautiful xd but ok) but i cant test it, because my cell phone is broken.. may you do it for me, and say if it works?
Sorry, I cant, I just don't feel comfortable, I hope you understand me
Also, what do you mean that you cant test it?
If TheoTown is crashing when you try to test you plugin, then probably you made something wrong
no problem, nah i meant i havent got a phone bc my phone broke in reallife xD yk?..

and my laptop is to bad for steam
Ah, well, sorry I cant really help you
Oc
¿¿??
Monthly price?
Also, I think we should move to #plugin-support
So, i just recently play TheoTown again on Android. I can't watch rewarded ads (or any other TT's ads) because the button is greyed out. Any way to solve this?
how long have you been waiting since the last ad?
The button just greyed out from the start. No waiting, it just greyed out. I still an collect the daily login diamond, which is weird.
Can you maybe restart your phone? Sometimes that's all it takes
Ok wait, lemme try it.
Nah, it does not solve it. I still have access to mod menu, but as always the watch add button still greyed out.
Can you reset the cache?
Still no result. Actually i want to reinstall it, see if it works. So... How to backup my data? That is, my city, region, 400 something diamond, and most importantly my unlocked content that i bought with my diamond.
Except if there's another suggestion....
TheoTown files are located under such directories:
▪︎ Windows: C:\Users\(insert username)\TheoTown
▪︎ Linux: /home/$USER/TheoTown
▪︎ MacOS: /user/TheoTown
▪︎ Android: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/info.flowersoft.theotown.theotown/files
Reinstalling the game for Android will delete all files, unless you decide to keep the files when prompted by uninstaller.
Alternatively, you can access the files through in-built TheoTown file manager, accessible through the in-game menu.
You can find your plugin, music, region and city files there as well as logs for debugging purposes.
But regardless your diamonds and unlocked content are connected to your account
I see in TheoTown Help the account used is either Facebook or Google Play, and then there's Theo Account, which one? Sorry if this gets annoying, usually it's not that hard for me to figure things out. I just want a no risk option...
Everything that I mentioned is linked to Google play, but maps and regions will have to be backuped manually
I wonder how hard it is for linux users
Already reinstalled, still no result. The ads button still greyed out. :-/ Hmmm...
It's not even so hard if you know how to navigate a simple file manager
it ain't
ok i am tired of my plugin problem, its been months since i have had this problem and i dont know how to fix this, whenever i open the plugin store, the plugin store doesnt loads and its just says network error, well then i tried to go to the theotown forum but, the forum isnt loading my browser says that the network is not secure and it seems like i cant download any plugins at all, if anyone could help with my problem it would be appreciated 🙏
You might have something misconfigured in your system
Does this issue occur in other websites?
no only the theotown forum
can anyone help me? how can i expand the region on the online server? I've tried a number of times, still no change, the region remains 4 and doesn't increase, please help.
try clicking on the plot when creating a region to divide the plot and make it smaller
crime
realy
yep
ok
Maybe us the contact us button
Okay. An update to my earlier post about ads button greyed out though it's online.
I find the culprit, it's my Private DNS settings. I use dns.adguard.com as the provider hostname. So i turn it off, and now the ads button works. (dns.google is also works if anyone use it)
This is a rare case, but i guess it's bound that someone somewhere also stumbled upon the same problem as mine. So, i post this here so it can help someone else with the same problem.
Either change the coordinates of the map or use a smaller map

Hey I have a question. Right now the graph for commercial/residental/industrial needs seems very bugy for larger cities. Is it planned to fix this behaviour? In my game it starts to constantly fluctuate heavily even though there are no abandoned buildings at all.
They probably private or got deleted
anyone know whats wrong? (this is what happens when i try to open theotown)
i tried reinstalling didnt work
Install java
i did
but i managed to get it working by installing the 64 bit version and that worked
How instal plugin on my city?
Go to the plugin store
And download plugins
Wait, if iOS and PC have no diamonds, then how can they buy plugins? Or are plugins free?
Are those buildings a downloadable plugins or not? https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/855102186748641300.png?size=64
I think they could be the Tesla factory plugin but I'm not sure
Yeah i think it is, why would tesla commit vandalism though?

How to move the game with it progress from a device to another?
I Think you can't

Just move the files from one location to the other @wooden cosmos
yes
What's the name of the plugin? https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/853200141263962162.png?size=64
tesla factory
the diamonds too?
Looks like you have some duplicates for some reason. Check your plugins folder to check if you have forums plugins that are also in the plugin store
And check managed plugins if you have duplicates in there.
Yep
Thats a lot of errors
i don't know how to fix it please help i deleted and redownloaded
Yes it is free
