    Builder pausing construction for a moment

    Hello
    I had a new idea about builder. We should be able to pause 1 builder in a span of 24 hours for. Say 5 min. Or more or less. So that we don't need to reserve one builder for upgrading walls.
    Anything u wanna add in comments below.
    Thanks

    Unfortunately Supercell will not allow this.

    It's because of profit issues. Supercell wants you to use gems to complete the upgrade quicker which in turn makes you spend money to get the gems. Not saying that's a bad thing to use gems.

    Also, this would imbalance the economy because for instance:

    You have 0/2, 0/3, 0/4, 0/5 builders available, whatever. Your gold is piling up -- all of these upgrades take over 2/3 days. So you decide you need to dump all this gold so it doesn't get stolen. You pause one upgrade and purge on 10 walls. Voila --- until everyone else starts doing this and no loot is to be found.

    Clash on!

    Why would they do this instead of just making them upgradable without a builder? Not that they will, because the game used to not require one...now it does.

    The whole point of walls requiring a builder is intended this way. So you can't have all your builders working, and still dump your gold into walls. You need to make a decision. Either have 3/4 builders on upgrades, saving the last builder for walls, have all builders upgrading and only do walls when they are free, or have all builders on upgrades and gem them to work on walls (this is the preferred way from SC perspective). Its all about choices.

    Think about this: if you could upgrade walls without a builder, farming would be more difficult as everyone would keep dumping excess gold to their walls, leaving YOU no gold to steal from everyone else. Meaning you would then be coming here crying that there's no loot and SC should do something about it. Which they already have- walls require a builder.

    If you don't have enough builders, it's your fault you didn't organise well. If you want to dump your loot, go ahead, but don't come complaining about how you need an extra builder. And if SC add this, don't come complaining about loot, because we won't listen.
