Thread: Bug: New Planet-Specific PA Halls can't be placed on Lok, Dantooine, Rori, etc.

This bug has been reported in the Architect and Politician forums, but it should be known here now that we have a PA forum.


Although you can place post-patch Tatooine houses on Lok, you are unable to place post-patch Tatooine PA Halls. The same goes for Dantooine (or Naboo halls on Rori). This has wasted many credits for PA's who have purchased these halls, it ruins building continuity for those cities trying for an all-Tatooine or all-Naboostyle, and most of all... a city that has an exact slot for its Tat PA Hall is in trouble. The Tat PA Hall has wildly different dimensions than a Generic Hall, which makes it impossible to place your Generic in the same city location as planned.


A CSR told me this isa known bug that the devs are working on. I just felt we all should be made aware.

This needs to be added to the top 5 issues and make it the top 6. Would be nice if we at least heard something from the devs. All I have heard is CSR said this and CSR said that. We would really like to hear something offcial from a dev on this issue.

We had to deal with this, our PA leader researched it a bit and learned that at this time, that is working as intended. Not sure unless we can get a dev response. We finally gave up and placed the PA hall. Something to consider to deal with this, the mayor's residence is the City Hall. That means the mayor doesnt' really need a "house." Transfer the PA lot to the mayor adn that allows it to work. /shrug that is what worked for us.

I think (and hope) you are incorrect. We've gotten many counts of CSR's saying that it is a known bug and the devs are "working on it".


/prays for it to be a bug and not working as intended.

There is indeed a CSR that thinks they are working as intended, but push (adding comments) I got an admission that PA halls are bugged.

The fix is in the politician forums and it makes all the sense in the world. Take your "planet" specific deed and re-deed it on that planet. So for example a naboo large that says "Only works on Naboo". Pull it up and re-deed it on Naboo. Now re-deed it. Why? Because the new deed is a post-patch deed. And wil say "Naboo/Dantoine/Rori".


Wish i had thought of this when we were placing the city.

This is only for housing. I have seen people reporting this works. But no one has tried it on a PA Hall.

Fodder, even post-patch halls do not work on alternate planets. The only success story I have heard, apparently, is that someone got a very helpful CSR to allow their Tat Hall to be placed on Lok. Strange if this is true... thata CSR has the power to fix this problem. You'd think they would all do the same.

thank you for the information ChoNaguriai. I hope we can get some official word on this, as it seems CSRs are giving conflicting reports.

I decided to try out Fodder850's idea "just in case". I already have a post-patch Tat PA Hall, but I took it to Tatooine, placed it, re-deeded it and brought it back to Lok and tried to place it again. It didn't work.

I fail to understand why the hot-fix for this is taking so long. I assume that houses and PA halls use the same basic code. Houses can be placed. They even managed to hot-fix the old house deeds. What is taking so long with these PA Halls?
