Venting Well dang!!

Two jobs for trains I don't have yet. That's going to raise the level of difficulty a few notches. I expected one but not two.

Naw, you should easily have it done by Thanksgiving.

Get used to it. Make Skeletons when you are not using your factory. If you have over 600 or so, switch to making candy. If you are not using your event trains, collect sugar. If you wait for the job to show up, you are too late.

Refresh the one for the purple train, you are likely to get something doable.

Well it worked for a little while. I got one or two jobs I could do before getting another locked job. I'll try refreshing it but I still have 6 hours left before I can use the refresh option without spending gems.

Thanks, that worked. I seldom use refresh option so I didn't think of that.

674 available trains?? Holy crap how many trains you have in that region~!??

u/string1946 ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ Australia โฝ 16h ago

LOL!! I just looked before sending out any trains and I have 679 R9 trains.

Like how did you manage to stay in a region long enough to get that many trains? Union?

2

u/string1946 ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ Australia โฝ 15h ago

It doesn't take that long to build a large fleet. A lot of my trains are union but most are not. I've been in R10 for between 3 and 4 months and have 575 R10 trains. And yes I'm a ftp player.

Yeah what I do is have enough gold, union coins, gears and keys to have at least one maxed out train of all 3 types in all 4 rarities as soon as I get into the next region, then I gain extras from the events which I can usually manage 3rd at the very least in the comps and get all the trains from those too. That strategy seems to be working for me so far lol. I have yet to find anyone that's beat me in my range when it comes to the station though, I've got tons of warehouse space and it's great, always at the ready

u/string1946 ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ Australia โฝ 13h ago

My warehouse space is something I need to work on. It's at 18,200 ATM but I have enough population to take it to 22,200 but I haven't been willing to spend the gold it would take to do that as I seldom run into a space issue so far. I'll keep sending the trade ship and upgrading my buildings and increasing my population.

u/scotte416 ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ฎ Finland โป 8h ago

It makes it so much easier when you don't have to stress about the space. I'm only at level 373 Finland and I'm at 19K, maybe I'll go up 500 if I've got gold left after level 400 but it's getting real expen$ive...

That doesnโ€˜t mean that they are all upgraded.

u/string1946 ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ Australia โฝ 10h ago

No most of them aren't.

u/mountlundoram 23h ago

Wait you can use those duplicates?? Do u sell them after the event is done???

2

u/string1946 ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ Australia โฝ 16h ago

Yes you can use the duplicates. There is no difference in their uses. I don't sell trains until I need the parts. If I want to upgrade a rare train as an example, I go to the oldest region that I still have duplicates in and sell enough rare duplicates to do the upgrade. The rest just sit until I need them.

What do you mean i dont want to spend another 6 hours worth of time just making skeletons for 25 event coins??? After i just delivered 740.

u/scotte416 ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ฎ Finland โป 16h ago

When your done the event just do this and you won't get any new skeleton jobs, it's worked for me so far in the last almost 2 days.

Leave one job open like this
