Turn buildings option

It would be amazing to be able to turn buildings! It’s extremely hard when first starting to find enough space to do everything and build everything your city needs. If you were able to turn buildings it would make it easier to fit buildings into spaces you are left with after tightly packing in all your other buildings. I have spaces that are longer than they are wide and buildings that are wider than they are long, if there were a turn option those buildings would fit in the space I have.

Please give us the option to turn buildings.

Thanks

Making all of the building fit in your city, with the various shapes, sizes, and the way they change sizes as you upgrade them is the central challenge of the game (according to the designers). This is why we will likely never see building rotations, or a 'stash' to put buildings into while you're rearranging your city or similar features that make the city layout challenges easier.

(They did add the teleport spell which makes city rearranging significantly less challenging than before, but its use is limited.)

Does it do anything to make the game more interesting, or only easier? The primary point of games is overcoming challenges. Since there aren't any real challenges between players, the only real challenge is against the game itself.

You might want to try some searches. This topic has come up a lot of times in the past.

We should start a thread with a timer for how often this suggestion comes up. And then for how long it takes one of the other Forum members to post that it will never happen. :D:eek::D

Next time they host a Facebook Live where they take questions, count up the number of times people request this, or some form of full storage of buildings. If you took a drink every time someone asked, you would probably be drunk before you got to the end of the questions. lol

But seriously, players have asked for this ever since the game was released over four years ago, but it has always been rejected because not being able to rotate is intentional and part of the planned challenge of the game.

To bad there wasn't a dicenchant option with the sell

There is if you teleport them first ;)

Funny thing is they said storing buildings would never happen and then they caved and gave us a teleport. However turning the buildings is a far more complex matter, they have stated with this one that the graphics has not been done for rotation. So every building would need to be redone (not the technical term) to allow this, that is a major investment of time which gets bigger every chapter and every event.

Also, if you could rotate buildings, then the building resize from 4x5 to 5x4 that happens with manufacturies at some levels would just be pointless. Teleport is also not unlimited -- you have to earn them from the Spire [is there any other sources?] so it is something you do occasionally and not routinely.

In every game, there are always those that want to do LESS work than those before them.............in my humble opinion
