Helicopter

Helicopter Information

The helicopter is available in the game from the beginning. You can gather goods for townspeople's orders and the helicopter will deliver their goods once you tap 'send'. After sending an order the helicopter will fly directly to the customers building in your Town, and deliver the goods then return to the Heli-pad. The number of orders will increase with your Towns population. This is the first way of gaining both coins and experience in the game which help you level up.

Helicopter Order Information

Some offer less coins and more experience and vice versa. You decide which orders you want to complete and dump ones that don't offer enough coins/experience or are too difficult by pressing the 'trash can' icon. After dumping an order it takes 30 minutes to refresh or you can spend 4 Township cash to refresh it right away. The Township cash cost will lower as the time is closer to refreshing.

If you have upgraded experience and coins in some of your factories the upgraded values will apply when you sell the products from those factories to townspeople/customers via the helicopter.

Helicopter Order Coin Booster

To earn a lot of coins you can use the laboratory booster 'Generous Customer' which doubles the coin value of helicopter orders for 2 days. You can use this in combination with the 'Vibrant Market' booster to earn even more coins! The pink coin numbers show the booster is in effect and represent double the value of coins for the order. After filling orders you will notice the regular coins from the order plus the pink bonus coins you received.

Helicopter Tip

You can save time and instantly finish the helicopters delivery by quickly visiting a random neighbor or any friends Town then moving back to your town immediately. This will allow you to fill the next order(s) faster. After visiting and returning to your Town the helicopter will be waiting and ready to be sent off. This becomes more convenient the bigger your town becomes as the helicopter will need more and more time to travel to its destinations.

Customers

Most of the customers/townspeople are associated with a certain building. A few of them have names and some of them are known for buying specific goods. The higher level you get the more customers you will have waiting with their orders up to a maximum of 9. To see more information on the customers you can click their heads.

Special Helicopter Orders

These are special helicopter orders which appear less often than regular ones. Don Pacone trades Tcash for your jewelry and Aurelio trades gems for other types of gems.

Don Pacone the Mafioso

At level 40 orders will start to appear from Don Pacone at the Helipad who requests ingots, and jewelry from you in exchange for 1 or 2 Tcash. You can buy jewelry or ore directly from the Dealer when hired and trade them in with the mafia man. If you have done a lot of upgrades at the Academy of Industry you can create jewelry with ores. You can learn more about hiring the Dealer and how to use him to earn Tcash at the City Market.

It's best to complete his order if he's offering at least 1 Tcash for 1 piece of jewelry. It's better to create ingots to upgrade factories than to give away ores for 1 Tcash. At higher levels when you're nearly completed factories you can consider giving him ores. There are rare occasions though where he will ask for 1 earring or diadem for 2 Tcash. To get the mafia man to appear faster you can dump all helicopter orders or start filling orders. Make sure you dump him as soon as he pops up with an offer you don't like.

Aurelio the Jeweler

Added in v4.7.0 Aurelio makes his appearance at the Helipad at level 50. He offers to trade you a certain type of gem for your other gems. Occasionally he also trades 2 Tcash for some gems if there are a large quantity of gems in stock.

Video Ad Information

Occasionally a director offers you to watch a video ad to earn some coins or Tcash. After watching an ad you will receive coins (amount depends on the level, e.g. Lv 40 200+, Lv 50 400, Lv 80 800+ etc) or Tcash (1 Tcash) at a 50/50 chance. Unofficially the chance of getting Tcash improves after taking the coin task in the musical voyage season.

It is never a good idea to rely on the ads as a reliable source of TCash as they have been know to disappear without warning.

Video Ads Gone?

If you have purchased any Tcash or coins in the store or from any sales; the video ads will either stop all together or appear once every 24-48 hours. The more frequently you purchase Tcash the less ads or visits from the director you'll get. After purchasing Tcash the ads usually appear every 24 hours, and can take up to a month or longer (without any purchases) to return to the regular scheduled 3 ads per hour. Video Ads follow a system to return ads after any in-app purchases.

Please Note: The connections between purchases and video are not the same for everybody, this is true for most, it is not for all.

Rank	Description
Rank 1	Purchased Tcash within the last 30 days. 1 video ad per 1-2 days. A second purchase within 30 days will stop all video ads for 1 month. After 1 month of no purchases you will be dropped to rank 2. After 3 months of no purchases you will drop to rank 3.
Rank 2	No purchases for 1 month. 1 to 2 video ads per day. Occasional 1 Tcash ad and others with a 50/50 chance for Tcash or coins.
Rank 3	No purchases for 3+ Months. 3 to 5 video ads per hour. First ad offers 1 Tcash and others with a 50/50 chance for Tcash or coins.

Dumped a Video Ad by Accident

If you have dumped video ad another one should appear within 24-48 hours. If ads still haven't returned you can try restarting your device and/or re-installing the game. If they still aren't appearing in-game after 2+ days you can contact Playrix as a last resort.
