Floating residence fail

[dorkan]

I have bought a floating residence but my max population is unchanged? any ideas

[Tripi]

Have you fully built it (taken it from star menu, placed in available spot in water and finished construction)?
If so, maybe try demolishing it and rebuilding. If that still does not work, send a ticket to support.

Beyond what Tripi said I'm afraid just this from the Germans dorkan, they've encountered problems too but no certain fix as yet: http://forum.diesiedleronline.de/thr...39-Meeranwesen

I've placed all 5 floating residences, upgraded them all to Lv 3, and my population has gone up from 5,210 to 5,510 as I'd expect...

There's therefore nothing wrong with mine, so Floaty's do work generally. As an addition to Tripi's suggestions above, you could also try a refresh, which can often fix problems with wrong numbers...

Have you tried a refresh at all?

If you get an invisible building like this, then it is usually accompanied by an error message which says something like "Unable to load file from cache. Please refresh your browser".

This means that the game has tried to load an image (in this case, the picture of the Floating Residence) from your browser's internet cache, but it failed to do so. The game will show you the error, but then just leave a blank space where the image should be, thus you have an 'invisible' Floating residence.

As the error message suggests, and as peck_ed said above, the solution is simply to refresh your browser page. It may also be worth emptying your internet cache before logging back into the game, so that it loads a fresh set of images...

Just to put some more rumours into the mill: I heard from someone that the first floater they built worked just fine, the second only added 10 population. Don't know if refreshing solved that problem.

Moved to bugs, seems like a better location for this! dorkan are you able to let us know if a refresh fixed the issue?

I had the same problem, but after all were upgraded to lv3 and at least one refresh, the pop cap was as expected
