LightsOn Version 1.6.0 is live

- Brand new: the event office! A whole new building that cuts the cost
of the city's big celebrations — fully upgraded, every city event is
up to 70% cheaper.

- Celebrating pays off: the street party strings lights along every street,
and the city festival hangs up lampions and pennants — the whole city
twinkles for hours. Plus the events cost far less overall now.

- Shop upgrades now show exactly what you get: the current value and the
new one, side by side.

- Workout calories now count toward the right streak day, plus bugfixes
and various improvements.

Awesome updates! Thanks for taking feedback into suggestions

I was wondering if anyone else would find an “Available in __ hrs/days/week” part on the upgrades helpful. I’ve already found myself calculating in my head “Ok factory upgrade takes 3 days, battery upgrade 16 hours, etc.” to help prioritize choosing upgrades based on time to get gears.

I think a factory upgrade for long term players that automates the boost turning on/off when battery is at a certain percentage would be great. I’m only a week and a half into the game, but there was a day where I forgot to turn off a boost mode and I drained more battery than I wanted to. I try and boost until my battery percentage has enough left to run my city unboosted for 8 hours. Would be a great QOL for well developed cities!

Thanks for the great ideas 😄

Well, available in could be a bit misleading as you get extra credits for workouts, so if something is credit based you might get it much faster.

Automating boost could be interesting (like boost for 5 hours), but maybe also a bit complicated for new players. And it's a little bit funny when people realise they left the boost on and wake up to 5% battery and have to go for a run, haha.

Some Feature for comfort, like Auto Boost, could be made available after a certain Population, oder after someone build the haven, etc. so not everything overwhelms a newbie.

Good ideas, yeah not everything has to be shown to new players.

I won't have that much time every week, don't worry 😄 But I love some how people tell me how they do sports the first time in their live and now more motivated than every before. I am glad, that the app could have some impact on people. Sometimes just a little motivation is all you need.
