I am VERY careful about my boardwalk orders. Every day, I spend most of the 12 hours we have to fulfill boardwalk orders crafting the items needed for them. If I finish crafting the items early, I wait until 7pm to give them to the boardwalk - I have a daily alarm to ensure this happens at the correct time, so that the 8-hour timer will not run out and start the next order before I go to bed. Then I spend the evening making all the pre-craft items and as many of the longer boardwalk order as possible before bed. Meanwhile all day I skip orders that require t-shirts or any other Casualwear items, and also skip many orders that require Tradecraft, unless those factories have finished the Boardwalk orders. As soon as the order is fulfilled, I start working on the next based on the preview. I keep a spreadsheet with a record of how many of each Boardwalk item is in a typical order and tick off the items I have made and how many more Casualwear and Tradecraft and final factory hours are required.
Last night, when I went to sleep after adding another t-shirt to my now 6-slot Casualwear factory due to Boardwalk orders always requiring 15+ Casualwear hours, and making some toast for bread puddings, it was a bit late, so I double-checked the timer. It still had over 2 hours on it. Perfect. This order is doable. I made SURE of it.
When I first logged in this morning, there are only 5 hours left on the Boardwalk fulfill timer.
All my work pre-crafting those items is completely wasted now because I don't see how I can possibly make everything left in only 5 hours instead of 12.
The requirements are already so high. And higher city hall levels are impossible without landmarks, with their high population/square, because we are so severely limited in terms of space. PLEASE make sure the timer works properly. And missing one order means more than 8 balloons-worth of tickets are lost because it resets to a smaller number of tickets. This is very upsetting. Is there anything that can be done to fix my order today?
