    Thanks One-Stroke. I love insightful posts from veterans.


    I started IT towards the end of last round. After reading the forums, I decided to try Toyshop. Ended with 2 shops and making decent money. At the start of this round, I went back to Toyshop but when I got to 3 shops, I diversified and set up a DIY shop then a grocery. Big mistake. Keeping them supplied became a nightmare. So many resources to juggle and attempting to upgrade buildings took me from positive to negative cashflow in the blink of an eye. I have shut down the DIY and grocery and currently have 5 toy shops. Slowly upgrading buildings to meet requirements. I figure I can keep 7 toyshops supplied with everything but Jokes.


    My conclusion would be that concentrating on 1 industry until you learn how to set it up correctly then diversifying is the best route. Diversifying has its bonuses though due to new products becoming available through RL more often. I also attempted to build all the different products for each industry when I should have concentrated on the most profitable at first. Live and learn or go bankrupt, I guess.

    It would be convenient to have a Upgrade button on the page for each building. This way we could check if we are interrupting the harvest on farms. As it is now, we have to go to the build page then back out to the list and hope we pick the same building that we just checked.
