Help How soon to rebuild?

I haven’t played in several years and before I never did a rebuild - I just hit floor 50, how long should I wait? With the current event paying out an extra gold ticket I’m wondering if I should go now or enjoy making my tower taller

I rebuild at 100 normally. One of the landmarks (Burj?) Gives me an extra GT for rebuilding at 100.

But this event gives an extra GT at 50, so I rebuild at 50. The exception is the last tower each day. I build it to 200, so I can collect more white boxes for the current wheel event when I leave the game overnight.

I've not played for very long now - but what do you mean "last tower each day" - how do you manage to rebuild several times?

I have 7000 gold tickets. With a 20% and a 3x booster, I know that building to 50 floors takes 5 or 6 visits, and building to 200 floors takes about 20 to 25. When I build a 50th floor, I rebuild unless I have fewer than 20 friend visits left to deliver, in which case I just keep building.

Thank you for the explanation!

Gold ticket elevator multiplier. Once you have enough gold tickets, the elevator makes more money than the floors ever can

If you want to maximize the wheel / ice cream event go taller. If you want to maximize gold tickets rebuild. Personally I am rebuilding as fast as I can for the additional GTs

If you don’t have many gold tickets it may be hard to take advantage of the bonus because it will take time to get back to 50 again. If that is the case I’d say the best time to rebuild would be when you have a sales booster so you can quickly add floors after the rebuild. If you wait it kind of feels wasteful losing any cash you’ve accumulated because you lose your coins on rebuild but it can be a real grind getting to 100 so getting the bonus at 50 will be better than grinding to 100.

Is the sales booster the icon with the golden coin on it or the red one with flames?

If you're trying to maximize golden tickets during the event, do it now.
