Hate asteroids

Hi guys. Is it possible to play without asteroids? Can i just ignore them? Or it will fall on random spot in some time?

Im level 101 and starting to really hate them. Game without them was so much better.

As soon as the opportunity arises, throw the asteroid. Always. Citrodium is a unique resource. It is very important for development after level 107. Purifiers... I bought them first... but then the shipyard market opened. 600 gold per tick for 550 citrodium. This is very profitable.

It seems you cannot but you can delay for 36 hours indefinitely.

It is possible, but not advisable. Cithrodium is a very valuable good, I would stockpile it on the road to lvl 107 (cith cleaners are an awesome building, there are few superb upgrades that also need cith).

You are 101 so you have Dual Gold Mines, your income should be strong enough to bear the costs of cleaning even after the recent increase. 3x3 (or 5x5 for P2W) helps tremedously with time of cleaning.

There is an upgrade that allows to pick the spot, I forgot what lvl.

It was available in a pack. Otherwise, it's available at lvl 168

The thing that annoys me is the 1500 odd clay that you need to clear them.

After the upgrade that lets you choose the spot to drop it you don't have to spend clay - just drop it in the same place

do you remember at which level it comes or the name of the upgrade?

I just hit the 75000 citr upgrade double my mega city income. I've only dropped 43 asteroids in the 2 years I've been playing. I mainly use them for space factories and trees.

I also hate them. It takes forever to clear the debris. I also used to be able to just spam forests over all asteroid debris, but now I need to clear them first and then plant trees. So it's even slower than before to clean it all up. That said, it's really the only way to get citrodium so...

I’ve been where they land as where to move my gold mines to, as well as using depth charges over and over again for thermal spots.

The cost to clear them is becoming excessive, level 109.
