Can someone help me out, I am trying to figure out how to pick up multiple townies from two different towns but I can never get it to work. Unless you can't?

Can someone help me out, I am trying to figure out how to pick up multiple townies from two different towns but I can never get it to work. Unless you can't?
You can't, unless you spend diamonds. You pick up townies from your first neighbour, go to your town, speed-up the PT maintenance with diamonds, then go to your other neighbour's town.
You can only pick up from one town per personal train reset.
You can't actually do that!
Sorry everyone, I thought you could! My bad!
Oh why are you sorry? You actually made me feel superior by sharing my HD wisdom. So thank you for that! :cool:Quote:

Haha... Yes it was. But I had a feeling it wasn't possible.Quote:

It would really help with the townie tasks when your trying to pick up certain townie people!
Yes it would! I am one of the only ones that does those tasks for the derby. I don't mind them, but could probably clear them 2x as fast if I could pick up from multiple towns.Quote:

Nope you can't, only vist one at a time then wait for your train to refuel, or yes diamonds, diamonds you can buy your way.
This feature would also make it exponentially harder for you to find townies among your neighbors to pick up -- the other edge of the sword!! :)Quote:

For example, I have a fully-upgraded PT with 10 seats and a 90min cool down. Most of my neighbors don't really do the town, so they don't have the fully upgraded PT. Most don't have fully upgraded town halls. Others have Eggspress trains that bring only a max of 5 townies per trip, and a PT capacity of 1. This means there may be only 2/3/4 townies on the platform to be picked up per neighbor, and maybe 8 neighbors (out of 13) with townies at all.
Under this requested feature, in one go I can clear all townies from 4+ neighbors, and grab the rest of the total number of my neighborhoods townies 90 minutes later. No one else would have a shot at ANY one-stop townies.
BUT as it stands now, yeah, I can't fil my PT, BUT other neighbors have a shot at getting some 1-stop townies because I will have to visit 8 towns with 90 minutes between visits to grab them all.
I do think it is a good idea. Why?? We need time to serve townies, we dont pick up and send them right away. Second, dont forget our neighbor can pick up our own- townies that we kicked out(14-eggress train). Supercell can limit that we can pick up the max of 2 neighbors. All math involved here.
Yes! Absolutely!Quote:

In general: The reward for completing the thing is frequently proportional to the effort you put into it, or the time spent in anticipation. Removing the effort involved would just remove the satisfaction.
