They have suggested and invited feedback on removing recursive macros. However, since that post a month or so back, there has been no further word from the Dev team about it.


They admit that unattended gameplay is wrong. They just don't have the resources to police the entire game and enforce it. So, they're looking for ways to end unattended play. Check the 'In Development' board for the post. I just wish they would hurry up and either implement it, or give us some feedback on what's going on.

Or til someone beats you at an election? Or the city hallis redeeded?


We can't have cities without leaders you know....making all those critical decisions like.....well.....are any really critical??


hahaha...nope!


On a related note.....I was gonna try politician at some point with the sole intent to get a bunch of entertainers to make a city of Cantinas. Yes it would take time, and my theory may be invalid, but I think it can be done.


IF.....



  1. Cantina's are not destroyed when the city hall is redeeded. They're not..the one at Mos Envy was still up for some time after the City Hall fell.

  2. People can redeclare residency to get the size back up without the cantina being automatically being readded to the city. Yup..you can declare a cantina as your residence.

  3. There are enough masters to support them. That might be the tricky part.

Then I figure we can get a main drag in a city with at least 4 or 6 cantinas.


Could be fun to try.

I've still got mastersinPoli, Musician and Entertaineron Iohannes (still hope John will come back but I haven't heard from him in a couple of months)..we could use him to get it startedwhile you gained the poli xp.If Kraytia falls apart with the account wipe it might be fun to giveyour ideaa try, Frag. I've no idea what will happen with that..the town has no cross-server lot trades but most of the buildings are owned by non-residents. People want to live there but their PAs require them to declare residency in their PA town. I've no clue how you manage it Ronny..I never wanted to be mayor but it's been 8 months now and haven't been able totalk anyone else into it.

I think that the Smugglers would agree with their place on your chart too.

OK, I'm your target of pity. Been Master entertainer, musician, and Politician. Dropped most of musician (I'm above buffing and healing) and picked up Merchant, with no crafting profession.


Master Entertainer

Musician 0/0/4/0 (was master twice)

Politician 4/4/4/4 (was master once)

Artisan 0/0/4/0

Merchant something with a few 4s, I forget.


By the way, Cantinas will indeed stay once a city hall is destroyed, so your plan to create a cantina-central would work. You'd need a tier two city (15 or so residents).

Ya I looked it up...Tier 2...20 residents.....


And I don't know if adding a cantina as a "Declared Resident" then counts as the one cantina for a town.


That and you have to keep getting back to tier 2....2 weeks at a pop?

I'm not sure if I understand your concerns about 'one cantina for a town'... You can have more than one cantina in your town at anytime. Declaring residence in it counts towards town size, and does not remove the cantina from the map (provided your town is large enough to register it).


Union City on Dantooine proudly boasts two cantinas right now. Union Cantina, and The Voritor Pit.Both of which are on the map and declared residences.

My impression was that you could only have one "cantina" per town, but if the city was disbanded the cantina stayed....and if you reformed a city then you could have a 2nd Cantina.


Please correct me if I am wrong.

I have seen several cities on Starsider with multiple map-registered cantinas.


One side of the street theaters, one side cantinas?
