I like the new feature that tells you if a location Is valid or not of you're too far away to build and I have a few extra ideas for it I think there should be a map mode called "location checker" where you tap a location and it gives you: the city name, capo, total turfs in that city, the names of the players with turfs in that city, the total income from the turfs in that city and possibly a few more city stats!

Interesting. Would be nice for stats purpose.

Um, no - especially to the players in the city. I suggest you play the game some more to learn why some suggestions are bad ideas.

Why not? You can see which players are in the city anyway but this would make it easier!

I dunno, I'd quite like more map stats. Average city population and income, etc...

Also it should tell you the average build cost of the city and the build cost of an area that you choose!

Build cost is based on player......

Yes I mean the average build cost in that area for the player that uses it!

No, it's not always easy to find placers in a city. There are methods to hide which were created on purpose. It should never list the players.
The general city stats are fine. For some cities, the total income changes often, so idk how you'd do that.

*players, not placers

I agree with mystery. Do some homework and figure out who is there on your own. And I don't care what the average build cost is.

So what do you think of the rest of my location checker idea (other than listing the players?)
