[craggy sigil]

Hola

[glass meteor]

Hello

[eternal snow]

How can i know the income of a buildin

??

for example the biggest building from tier 3

why are some of them different if some are smaller but better than bigger buildings

do they give more incom

???

i need answers

a 4x4 building of industrial II jas the same capability than one of 5x5

what is their difference?

why is this like that?

[fluid knot]

hi so i just downloaded theotown in pc and i wanna transfer the maps i have in my phone to my pc, can someone help me pls??

[burnt shard]

Yes yes

They give you more money because they're rich

Also depends on your tax rate

[burnt shard]

Upload your .city files and region files to drive

Go back to your computer and download them

And transfer them to the regions and single cities folders

[fluid knot]

why cant i see the regions and single cities folder though?

[fluid knot]

also can i just use usb for this?

[burnt shard]

Ptag files

[mild stump]

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.

[fluid knot]

still nothing though, i just bought it off steam

[burnt shard]

You may have to ask someone else since im very busy this week

[fluid knot]

ok ty though

oh wait nevermind found it

[analog timber]

Is there an easier way to remove old plugins on IOS?

Whenever I try to scroll down to view older plugins, the app crashes…

[regal urchin]

How can I get the underground cables, I have a very big city and everyone is happy xd

[regal urchin]

ª

[twin bronze]

its an extra content, u need to buy it

[gusty kettle]

^, to buy it tap that "+" button on top right, and then select where you see it.

[urban quiver]

how do i use it?

[burnt shard]

Use it to deliver electricity to the nearby city

[eternal snow]

share current in between different towns?

[burnt shard]

everytime I launch the dsa sdi my game just freezes help pls

[gusty kettle]

I, personally, used it to transfer wires from on-ground to underground. But this can have many uses, such as making your city more realistic.

[gusty kettle]

Can you turn on debug mode and see how much FPS you have before lanching it? And then say it here

[burnt shard]

is debug mode in the settings?

[gusty kettle]

In the menu should be

If it's not experimental feature or so

Tap debug mode in settings

Save

And then in the menu scroll down

[burnt shard]

already did

its between 20 fps and 50

but

this time the game didn't freeze

[gusty kettle]

I think it could be your device being slow,

[gusty kettle]

Hm.

[burnt shard]

maybe

my phone is pretty old already

anyways thank you for helping

[gusty kettle]

Well yeah I'm pretty sure that might be the issue

[native hearth]

There might be an way to access the user folder of IOS

[mild jacinth]

If you can download the file you should be able to access your download folder from the in game file accessor

[mild jacinth]

Go into region view

[native hearth]

Find your downloads folder first

[mild jacinth]

@native hearth let me handle this please.

[native hearth]

this might be possible I saw some instructions in the internet might help

[mild jacinth]

Mate.

Let me do my job. Of you would please remove yourself from the conversation I'd appreciate it

[native hearth]

I knew it

[tidal karma]

Region view is still the same

No file manager

[mild jacinth]

Hmm interesting. Could you screenshot what you do have?

[native hearth]

bro what IOS phone version or any version you have then?

[mild jacinth]

@native hearth mate. I will ask you one more time. Let me handle this. Next I'll just mute you for failure to listen to a moderator

[mild jacinth]

Pversion

[mild stump]

Most recent versions of TheoTown

Android

1.10.38

Desktop

1.10.38

iOS

1.10.34

Note: this will also include versions which are not yet available to regular users.

[mild jacinth]

Is there a setting to turn it on?

[tidal karma]

Nope

[mild jacinth]

Then we're gonna have to go old school

Your phone should have an app called files

(or something similar)

[tidal karma]

Yeah

Hold on i think i have it

Can you guide me

[mild jacinth]

Yeah. One thing already (just to make sure) did you download a .zip file?

[tidal karma]

Alright so i want nature+

I download the+.zip one?

[mild jacinth]

Yeah just the .zip

[tidal karma]

Then managed plugins or just plugins

[mild jacinth]

The plugins folder

[tidal karma]

Yesssss

It worked

Thank you so much!! @mild jacinth

[mild jacinth]

Good to here! Enjoy

[copper needle]

Can I ask why there is no picture folder in my theotown directories?

[mild jacinth]

Pictures are automatically added to your camera rolls

[copper needle]

Wait, let me check

[native hearth]

bro

why IOS is different?

version

[mild jacinth]

Because, it's a different operating system? Naturally they are going to do things differently

[copper needle]

No, there is not its full of camera photos not in-game pics

[mild jacinth]

Did you enable that option

[copper needle]

What option?

[mild jacinth]

In your app premissions

[copper needle]

Let me check

[copper needle]

Thanks, for the help, permissions is the problem so yeah, thanks

[mild jacinth]

Happy to help

[analog timber]

Is there an easier way to remove old plugins on IOS?

Whenever I try to scroll down to view older plugins, the app crashes…

[vast hare]

use file manager to remove the specific managed plugin files

[quick nimbus]

Hello, what should I do if I forgot my account password in the game?

[vast hare]

Reset it at

https://forum.theotown.com/

[analog timber]

The “Files” app on IOS does not really help… most names are random… it’s weird.

[vast hare]

Renaming the managed plugins folder would cause all plugin store plugins to be removed

[analog timber]

I don’t want to remove them all… I have over 1200 plugins and I want to go through them

Just to see which ones are useless

Because I don’t even use half of the plugins since they are broken

[mild jacinth]

if they are broken they aren't active anymore

[steep salmon]

bruh, I downloaded a torrent on my PC to test the game, after I bought it in Steam, now I always have a plugin store loading, or is this how it should be?

[burnt shard]

Download 64 bit jaba

Very common problem for steam players

[mild jacinth]

I'm gonna ingnore that first part. But you shouldn't do that. And yes 64 bit java should fix it

[burnt shard]

The old reliable yes

[steep salmon]

I'll try, but it's already installed

[steep salmon]

thanks)

I don't know why, but reinstalling helped

[severe pine]

It probably wasn't 64 bit

[steep salmon]

It was 64 bit

[severe pine]

Must've been an extremely old installation then

[steep salmon]

I bought a laptop ten days ago, I will stop at the option that it was just magic

How to disable auto-translation in my plugin store? I couldn't find setting for it

(pretty cool feature tho)

[native grotto]

How do I improve this

[mild stump]

Case #fscj1m

xxxjayraditz#2096 was muted for the following reason: trying to mass ping again.

[mild jacinth]

Use some variety.

[gusty kettle]

To disable auto-translations, you'll have to change whole game settings to English language. So if you're annoyed by auto-translation, you'll have to keep game on English language.

[crimson cedar]

[gusty kettle]

You put road to the edge of the world, then tap "yes" to confirm that you want to connect two cities.

[gusty kettle]

Move folders to the new device.

[mild stump]

[west palm]

Pls dont say im the only one with this tunnel Problem

[thorny halo]

Hello! I see a huge region in online,and i exited on this.
I know about creating by other cities and console methods,but i need to create this from .png images or seeds.Thanks for your help.

[vast hare]

Ptag heightmaps

[mild stump]

You want to make a region that resembles a real place? Use heightmaps!

1. Go to https://tangrams.github.io/heightmapper/ and find your wanted location.
2. Make sure that the colors are right. Black will become water and white will be hills.
3. Take a screenshot and change the name (example.jpg).
4. Put the image in your TheoTown folder, not in the subfolders.
5. Go to the region generator and and type in the image name (example.jpg).
6. Enjoy your new custom region!

[thorny halo]

Thanks!

[barren reef]

How do I disable uber mode?

[tender fern]

You can't

Hi, I intend to transfer my theotown data folder to another cellphone, but I don't want to lose my diamonds. Is there a way to transfer the data to another phone without losing the diamonds?

[mild jacinth]

@burnt shard the diamond are tied to the account

[burnt shard]

Is there any way to get through without needing an account?

[mild jacinth]

Nope

Just make an account

That's the easiest thing to do in game

[burnt shard]

So first of all, I only get residents in my town with certain buildings

And second

[clear sigil]

Try to follow the demands

And seems liek you have dead people in the buldings. Build a cementerie for that

[severe pine]

You have a massive industrial demand

[burnt shard]

I get allot of epidemic outbreaks but i got lots of hospitals and Health care

[clear sigil]

Build cementeries

[severe pine]

They're caused by dead poeple left in the buildings

[burnt shard]

Oh so the deceased body’s spread disease

Cool

[frosty shard]

yep

[burnt shard]

What an awesome game

Ok thanks for that

And why arent there more ppl in my city

Because look i even got a whole suburb part

I must have at least around 50k residents

[clear sigil]

You should be follwing the demands more often so you can get more pop

[burnt shard]

What you mean

Demands

[frosty shard]

i will make a tutorial for you

[burnt shard]

Okey when

[clear sigil]

This

Ptag Population growth

[mild stump]

To have your city population grow, you need to constantly place RCI zones while making sure that you have the RCI equilibrium maintained. Placing too much residentials, for example, will NOT be an effective way to increase your population if the city is in demand for commercials.

[frosty shard]

this is the demands

if is over the line it means you need to build more of the specific color

if its below 0 you need to demolish the building of the color

[burnt shard]

Oh ok ok

Thanks allot

[frosty shard]

we are here always to help some rookies

[burnt shard]

But i can literally change the demands

With the plus of the minus

So whats the point

Only available in sandbox

If you're not on sandbox those buttons are not there

Oh

So in sandbox you dont need to take account of Those things

[severe pine]

generally not really

[burnt shard]

And why is my population barely growing when i have 75 procent hapiness

And allloooot of buildings

I only have like 20k residents

And good power, water supply, cemetery

Everything

I dont get it

[clear sigil]

Again, don't just place residential, build commercial and industrial too

[fierce fiber]

Do commercial and industrial zones care about religion or education? These are my happiness numbers:

And I haven’t built these in my industrial at all. Commercial has some education coverage, but no religion.

Also, this is my demand at time of above screenshot, if needed:

[frosty shard]

yes

you need to provide them all the services

[vast hare]

They actually don't

[spice dagger]

industrials and commercials do not need religion or education

[jagged chasm]

Nope

[gaunt briar]

So i just reinstalled the game after a long time

I signed in to my old account, but my old progress wasnt retrieved

Is there a way to get it back before i start fresh

[severe pine]

If you still have the device that it was previously installed on you can retrieve it

Otherwise no

[gaunt briar]

Yeah i have the same device

[burnt shard]

Ah thanks for the industrial zone Intel, you will now be credited in my theotown database

[severe pine]

The theotown folder moved a while back, you'll probably find it in its old location

The new location is

Ptag files

[mild stump]

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.

[gaunt briar]

Ah then it's gone

Gonna start fresh

[frosty shard]

The sound wall from DSA?

[inland pollen]

[frosty shard]

I Think so...that's why is called Sound wall

[inland pollen]

oh okay thank you :)

[burnt shard]

why is the range of the fire station so small

[frosty shard]

Let me test something

And I will give you a answer

This is the range of the Main fire departement

[burnt shard]

my city is in a region

[frosty shard]

Its the same range

[burnt shard]

also this happense too

[frosty shard]

Your game has some bugs....

[burnt shard]

so do i report it in #bugs-n-crashes

[frosty shard]

Yep

[frosty shard]

This is from a plugin...so...report on #plugin-support

[burnt shard]

alright

i have debug mode on

maybe that has something to do with the range?

[long galleon]

How to fix this ? IM Stuck in here

[burnt shard]

Download 64 bit java

[inland pollen]

How can i reduce lag? Ingame

[burnt shard]

Turn off energy saver

Oh okay thank you

[tepid lantern]

Hello. I'm a new player. I want to create a play area with my friends. What do I need to do to create a map for my friends to play with?

[clear sigil]

Ptag Online Mode

[mild stump]

Since version 1.8.45, there's an online mode in TheoTown. You can access it by tapping a button 'Online Regions'. There you can play on free regions, or access the locked ones with a password. Also, you can upload your own region, by tapping a '≡' button in main menu. But remember, it will cost some diamonds or region coins.

[fierce fiber]

Once you have access to dense zones, is there any reason to use regular ones? Is there a downside to using nothing but dense zones in a city?

[burnt shard]

what exactly do the plugins do, do they just like ad new buildings or do they have the possibility of overhauling the game like a proper mod

[mild jacinth]

Size of the building, and T, TT, or TTT are the only differences. you will more than likely need normal zoning for T level citizens

[fierce fiber]

Ok, so you’re saying that dense is more likely to generate TTT buildings, and may not meet the T demand reliably? That might explain some things. Thanks!

[mild jacinth]

You're welcome!

[tacit relic]

They like mod but is mostly adding more building

[gusty kettle]

Plugins are cool

[lament sandal]

when i make a heightmap region using the console it doesnt use the heightmap

like my heightmap is named italy.jpg
when i put that as the seed it gives me a random map with 2 rivers

[acoustic lantern]

Make sure to put the image in the theotown folder

[lament sandal]

console...

[lament sandal]

ah ok

[west palm]

Okay okay

Hear me out

when i make metro lines ingame, they mostly show purple on the minimap. sometimes, for some reason, they dont show up. Whats the reason?

the yellow lines are the metrolines which for some reason just don't show up in the minimap

I hate things that dont make sense

It makes me so aggressive

I don't know if this should be posted in support at all, but yh

[jagged chasm]

Overpasses don't show up as well. 🤔

Hey uh i recently got a new phone how can i transfer my plugin from my old phone into my new phone?

[frosty shard]

The plugins from the store will remain bought if you login whith your account

And the forum plugins...just transfer the files from one to another

[frosty shard]

But you still need to download manually

[lucid frost]

Hey, I was wondering if the game works like I want. Can low class citizen work in one city and live in another ?
If yes, how ?

[spice dagger]

no, the game does not support that just yet

[lucid frost]

Damn

[lucid frost]

Why is there an option for streets to go into other cities then ?

[spice dagger]

mostly decorative

I'm not sure but it might be required for body disposal neighbourhood commercial

[lucid frost]

No problem mate.

[burnt shard]

How can I use the plugin store in the pc version

[clear sigil]

just go in the plugin store and click dowload on the plugins you want

[burnt shard]

Ther is no plugin store in the game

[frosty shard]

what you mean

do you have a green download button in the right top corner?

[burnt shard]

No

Only in the mobile version

[frosty shard]

click on the diamonds and scroll down

[frosty shard]

its in the pc version to

Click on the Diamonds...and then scroll down..clixk on the grenn download button and you have found the store

@burnt shard want to make a tutorial?

[burnt shard]

There's no diamonds

[frosty shard]

Whenever I use one-way roads or roads with double lanes, traffic only uses one of the two lanes… why is that?

Traffic uses both lanes for some one-way roads, but won’t for the others.

[smoky grotto]

They'll be on the lane of the direction they want to turn to

[analog timber]

Oh okay, I was wondering because for some one-way roads the faster cars pass the slower ones.

However, for other one-way roads, it’ll be a long line of cars behind a truck/slow car.

[coarse cosmos]

por que o jogo nos celulares é de graça mas na steam ele é pago?

[bright lion]

Olá! Você pode falar português em #language-bar. ^^
The reason why the phone version is free and the Steam version is paid is because diamonds are excluded from the game and you have everything unlocked in-game, meanwhile...

the phone version has diamonds, in-app purchases and you can unlock some things with diamonds and real money.*

Sorry.

when i updated to this version or later, why the free button where you watch ads to build tunnel for free was removed?

[burnt shard]

It was removed

Due to it being OP

But you can use the road authority building or buying the unlimited tunnels

[severe pine]

there is no patch note mention of that

[lavish shell]

Tbf, patch notes aren't always accurate

[burnt shard]

What does this mean

[severe pine]

theotown ran out of reserved memory while generating the region

The first line says Java ran out of memory

And what now?

[severe pine]

you can either give it another shot or make java take up more ram by default

[burnt shard]

I download java right now

[severe pine]

if you didnt have java the game would never have started

you dont need to reinstall java

[burnt shard]

But why it doesn't work anymore

[glad basin]

Every time I press take map picture it lags me out of the game. Idk where the photo ends up either. Someone help!

Of course, since months

Can I talk with an administrator?

[severe pine]

What does that even mean if the update is already out

[vast hare]

Means that we're waiting for people to adopt new beta

for security reasons

How in the new version to upload a folder with plugins, if the download zip, game crashes

P. S. Sorry for my english

[spice dagger]

what?

if your game crashes that's probably a plugin error

do you have a screenshot of your issue?

[burnt shard]

After I upload a zip file to the game via file manager, a black screen appears

[frosty shard]

can you send a screenshot

or a video?

[burnt shard]

Do not pay attention to the Russian language

[clear sigil]

Avoid importing files with the "folder" option as it may seem that it causes some issues in the game. Try importing the zip with the "files" option

[spice dagger]

no, but a tile should be around 14 meters long, so you can calculate the area yourself

there was a post on forums calculating the area of maps but I can't find it anywhere now

[gusty kettle]

No, but it's just a risk that comes with them. But for the money you get, I think it's okay

[latent hedge]

hello, im new to theo. I know there are certain color which will create certain terrain when i create new region. can you guys show me which will make a land, desert, grass, trees, mountains, snow, etc?

[mild stump]

Are you tired of the 4 default regions? You can create a new one! Just go to the console (you should have Experimental Features mode on) and write the command help. There you will see a command for creating a region, where you can configure name, seed, region's size and map's coordinates. Also you can use heightmaps for your region! To find out how to do it and how to write maps coordinates properly, you may visit TheoTown Forum (https://bit.ly/2Zdkdsf).

Also, since 1.8.40 update you can create a region just in game by tapping 'New Region' button in Main menu.

[mild jacinth]

Ptag heightmaps

[mild stump]

You want to make a region that resembles a real place? Use heightmaps!

1. Go to https://tangrams.github.io/heightmapper/ and find your wanted location.
2. Make sure that the colors are right. Black will become water and white will be hills.
3. Take a screenshot and change the name (example.jpg).
4. Put the image in your TheoTown folder, not in the subfolders.
5. Go to the region generator and and type in the image name (example.jpg).
6. Enjoy your new custom region!

[gusty kettle]

OH, I didn't understand it

[mild jacinth]

Heightmaps can only determine height of the map, not the kinda of terrian

[gusty kettle]

I thought he meant the trees and such options when creating new region

[latent hedge]

yep

well, i tried blueish when i draw river, but when i upload it, it become snow area

oh i forgot to mention that i tried the upload method to create region

[mild jacinth]

Refer to this. All maps are hight maps imported, so they follow these rules

[gusty kettle]

You see, heightmap isn't blue. It is gray, black and white.

As you can see in #seeds-n-maps if you scroll up.

[latent hedge]

well, i have this idea of turning RPG maps into Theo-playable map, and wanted to make it as precise as possible with the terrains

[gusty kettle]

You'll have to draw it by yourself then (unless it is real life map), unfortunately.

[latent hedge]

haha ikr, thats why i ask for terrain colors. well i guess that means a lot of sleepless nights!

[inland pollen]

Hi hello can anyone help me with this i dont know what constructed are

[frosty shard]

It's the SDI a shield for space ships and meteorite

[inland pollen]

Why i cant unlock it? Just asking 😅

[frosty shard]

Bcz you already build It you când build It one more time

[inland pollen]

So how do i unlock it any tips?

[frosty shard]

You can't

You alredy build It

[tacit relic]

Red text "already constructed" You already build it

[inland pollen]

So why its still lock? 😅 sorry i have so many question i just start this moon task and i dont know how to do it 😆

[burnt shard]

My goodness we said you already built it, you cant build the same thing jesus

Its locked because your city is already protected from the skies and you're curious how to unlock it

[inland pollen]

Oh okay 😆 but thanks for help

[inland pollen]

💀 what i already built it but why there's still meteor entering the city?

[burnt shard]

Missile silos aint patched yet

Genius

[inland pollen]

I already build it and upgrade it 😆

Sadly its just the tip of the missile 😆

[burnt shard]

Listen missile silos still attract ufos and meteors

Even with SDI

And its not been patched

[inland pollen]

yea probably because the buildings arent filling

[frosty shard]

You don't have enough population to fill the buildings

Add them services

[tender fern]

UBER

[frosty shard]

You have to provide them some services to live in buildings
The streets are empty

In that pic

[lament sandal]

like what

its on uber i dont think id need any

[frosty shard]

Transport...police etc...in my city all the buildings are full. And I have uber mode but I provide them all the services

[tender fern]

Just build more commercial and industry

They still need job

[old acorn]

Uber still need service like park transportation etc, I only got 1 people in 1 big building

[frosty shard]

True

[frosty shard]

Uber just canceled the happines and all the disasters

And the building demands

[lament sandal]

ah

i typically dont use uber so i dont know

[pine wolf]

Is it bugged plug in or Im too dumb to use it properly? As instructions say, I pause game, put stream tiles, and thats effect. I unpause be4 puting water-kind tile, or after, no difference..

[burnt shard]

The stream plugin is basically broken and never fixed

[pine wolf]

Ook, I was hoping for me being dumb this time thou xD

[broken solar]

Cuz the creator is retired

[patent furnace]

Anyone know how to remove this bugged red texture around those trucks? or whats causing it (steam version) latest update

[severe pine]

that means those frames will be removed in a future update and should not be used

as for why theyre there, probably spawned by a plugin building

[patent furnace]

alright do u know how to spot that plugin?

[severe pine]

no

[patent furnace]

sad, thanks for helping

[severe pine]

youll find out eventually when the graphics get removed i guess

[patent furnace]

yeah i will wait for next update

[autumn vigil]

It was working fine back in the day tho the new things in game made it broken by now. The pause to build thing is kinda a feature for that in past tho it still works as fine even if you didn't pause the game. Since it was a deco turning into decal by I don't know coding it made it possible.

[burnt shard]

One question, I was basically looking around the drafts and there's these 2 buildings called "The Opera" and the park and im still wondering how to obtain these buildings

I need some information so i can put this intel to the theotown database sheet

[gusty kettle]

So these trucks will get removed? That's some interesting stuff

[severe pine]

no, theyve been replaced by car frames v2

[burnt shard]

How can I load an old save?

[frosty shard]

What you mean by old save

Be more explicitly

[gusty kettle]

You can't. Unless you mean "I switched devices" or something.

[frosty shard]

If he switched devices, he can download the map...upload to the other device and play

[burnt shard]

No I mean I destroyed my city and I want to load one of the older saves in order to get it back but don't know how or if its possible

[tacit relic]

Have you backup it before it got destroyed? If not then sorry you can't

[burnt shard]

I didn't but if I go to files I can see some saves of my city or something

[frosty shard]

Rip them

[burnt shard]

They should really add an automatic backup on your city 😭

[burnt shard]

Nvm I found a backup in the files but how do I load it?

[mild jacinth]

@burnt shard change the name from .city.backup to .city

[autumn vigil]

Is there an option to remove all of these "new" notification. Because of them I didn't know if there's an updated plugin.

[frosty shard]

Yes from the settings

@burnt shard want to make a tutorial?

I did, but it didn’t drop down the traffic volume much

There may be too many plugins

[severe pine]

Nah I think your phone just can't handle a city that big

[burnt shard]

I also noticed that the managed plugins folder in File manager is missing

[burnt shard]

0 habitants

[severe pine]

That's because it's hidden by default

[severe pine]

Inhabitants don't matter

Too many tiles to draw

[burnt shard]

Before that, everything worked normally.

May be the wrong plugin

Why is this city working properly?

[burnt shard]

This one crashes

Why?

[vagrant ledge]

Maybe cause of the tree generated In the map?

Guys how can I go about transferring files from one region to another device?

[clear sigil]

Ptag files

[mild stump]

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.

What should I do?

I have ground for bury garbage & space for burn garbage.

[mild jacinth]

Click on them and see how much room there is

[feral ridge]

Ok.

I clicked this space

It say ''There is the burnt tree which I want to fell''

[spice dagger]

I'm pretty sure that's not a landfill

I guess you clicked a burnt tree

Then, I want to put out the tree

What should I do?

it's burnt

it should be destroyed

I’m struggling to use the avenue road? I try placing it and it won’t place, sometimes if I pick a random spot it will work

[frosty shard]

what you mean about its not working

can you send a video?

[gusty kettle]

Are you sure you tapped the road titles (green ones when creating it), not missed it by clicking on the middle or outside of green titles?

Quite confusing to understand, yes, but I just don't know how to explain it properly

[burnt shard]

The middle tile is called a threshold, which spaces out 3 lane roads to be either placed on the left or right

Tapping on the threshold don't do anything

But marks out the center between left and right

[frosty shard]

yea or maybe you have some decos on the land and you can place them then

like stones

[gusty kettle]

Ah, that's properly explained.

Thanks marcato.

[neon echo]

Thank you guys, I kept trying to press the middle

[burnt shard]

Click the green next time

[neon echo]

There wasn’t really an explanation and just felt intuitive to press the middle

Any way*

[burnt shard]

Exit your city

Don't worry, I am pretty sure many of us made that mistake. I remember how I was doing that, and I was so confused on why it didn't build

[burnt shard]

And hit the bulldozer icon

[spice dagger]

(only works for cities in default regions)

[burnt shard]

And your inhabitants there will disappear

wink wink

[gusty kettle]

Wait it does? I thought it worked everywhere

Since why wouldn't it work on custom-made regions

[spice dagger]

it used to not work in custom regions for a long time

why would they keep the initial city states

[gusty kettle]

I mean it makes sense after all

[severe pine]

Not anymore

Now they store the initial city states

At the cost of storage space

why is it that when i try to make a stop for my bus route it doesnt work

Check the demands

If the green bar is low, the demand for citizens is low. Which means the supply is larger hen it’s demand

[tall wagon]

Lower demands = they don't want to build buildings

High demands = they want to build buildings

Ptag online

[mild stump]

Since version 1.8.45, there's an online mode in TheoTown. You can access it by tapping a button 'Online Regions'. There you can play on free regions, or access the locked ones with a password. Also, you can upload your own region, by tapping a '≡' button in main menu. But remember, it will cost some diamonds or region coins.

Thats the plugin store

Yes the payment was made

On my purchase history, it says pending

So it's still not finished

[shy steeple]

Do i need to wait or?

[frosty shard]

Maybe

[shy steeple]

I already pay and everything

I wait for a bit, if it doesnt work what should i do?

[frosty shard]

Maybe its a internet problem

[shy steeple]

I dont think so?

[spice dagger]

we aren't very much capable of solving that so you would probably have to wait for the developers

maybe it will fix itself in the meanwhile
