I recently purchased a night club. So I went to place it in the spot that I specifically had cleared for it. The problem was that it didn't fit! So hit the little x and cancelled the construction. Now should I bank the 40 mil and eat the 10%? or risk the attack and sell those stupid side walk bushes in the way. Well considering if I banked then I wouldn't have enough to purchase my sought after building I risked it! As I was deleting the bushes I saw attack after attack! I didn't know weather I was having a heart attack or crapping my pants! Lucky for me it was just excelerated heart rate and a slight shart. No harm no foul! Thank god all the attackers failed at taking my 40 mil and I now have my night club. So what I'd like to know has anyone had one of those heart drop moments while playing
Crime city?

Never a "40 mil" heart attack, mainly because I'm poor and don't have that much.

Did you test it out 1st? Find out what the footprint for the nightclub is, move a lesser building you have into that spot with the same footprint, see if it fits, then do it for real with the nightclub.

Just once and once was enough for me.

I use the money building spreadsheet now and still reconfirm that info by moving another building with the same footprint into that spot just to check that it fits like it should and that i didn't miss a gun or something small that might be in the way.

Well I had my zeus theater there and I was sure it was larger than the club but club is a different shape

Your loss in a attack would probably not have been as bad as you think.

I've hit players with lots a money on hand and I think I just got some sort of preset limit.
I think it may be based on what level your on too but I have no proof.

The most you can lose if you get attacked is 300K if you bank it now you will lose 4M.

Ghost is correct about the 300K, that's all I can get from someone but I think it also has something to do with the player's level.

My wife attacked Duder when he had 35mil on hand and they were both on like level 8 or 9. I think she was getting 3k per hit. Maybe Duder will remember, her name is Kelsey.

Yeah, the amount you can take from a rival goes up per level, and after level 81+ you take max 30K per hit.

OK... if you have 35 million on hand at level EIGHT, what exactly is your goal in playing the game? If you detest player interaction, simcity is more detailed.

Probably camped or bought the money? His goal would be to have a strong economy so in the future he can buy those 80M planes each.

I couldn't find the post but I remember reading you can lose 30k a fight at about level 45 and get attacked 10 times at level 41. I lose 25k a fight at level 35 with my camper.

Duder as made some posts here about his economy strategy. I think at one point it was a sticky. At some point they start moving forward maybe even quickly but since I don't play that way I can't really tell ya.

Anyway....there are a LOT of mini titans (as I call them) at the lower levels.

Oh, then I must be wrong, my answer was just an assumption.
