Seconding a by-structure type filter.
This is the way.

Good to read that there are, possibly, further plans for making holding land worth doing.
Have you considered making some of these resource gathering/making tasks automated? Clicks on clocks make for tedious gameplay, and this game has potential for becoming much bigger than your typical click-fest.

I think I speak for a lot of players in saying Thank You for this change!

Attach your typos here.

It's fairly straightforward in my case, as I only have 2 bases: 70 + 3 = 73, so 7300 TP "cap". 4% is 292 TP.
Thank you!

Found a related issue. I remote-upgraded a land for 5 Unobtainium, and it consumed a stored capture, and 4% TP!!!, in the process without a confirmation dialog. I did not intend to do this, and only wanted to see what the TP cost would be, then cancel.

Maybe I jumped to conclusions. Being listed above is rather upsetting, as you might imagine.
It's not a GPS-enhancing app, it's a physical device, the Garmin GLO 2 at the moment. It connects to any bluetooth device (a phone or tablet, but I've used devices like it in various field vehicles for work) and interfaces with an app which Android uses as an alternative source of GPS info. The app can control the sampling rate, etc. Because it's a bluetooth connection, the device's location must be within meters of the phone... but really it's in my pocket.
The Garmin has it's own app in the Play Store but it's crap. There are tons of 3rd party GPS input apps in the store that work much better, because they all do the same basic thing of taking the gps data from the device and pass it to Android as an alternative GPS source. It's possible that it was around the end of April that I was trying apps to see which worked best with the old Nexus 6P I use for walking around (don't laugh... it's not safe to use a flashier new phone in Kampala, especially at night).
Could that have triggered your new detection logic? Happy to help you test if need be.

This is very disappointing and short-sighted. There is a valid and common use of the external gps source dev option in Android - namely, using an external gps receiver.
In Uganda, as in Malawi before my new posting in Kampala, I use an external gps dongle that has better reception so that my position doesn't fluctuate by 100m+ constantly because gps was never designed for equatorial optimization, and unlike in most of the developed world there aren't 2 dozen routers nearby at any moment to boost Google location services. It is a bluetooth device that is carried on me when I play. It isn't spoofing my location, it's there to provide my phone, and the game, a MORE accurate location.
I'm 200% onboard with anti-spoofing efforts, as it's the bane of all gps-based gaming, which I love. But there's a reason other games use FAR more sophisticated detection methods than simply looking at a single android flag.

Just adding, at this moment I am the player in question affected by this issue.
Thanks!

Any news on this front? I've found it hard to be motivated enough to claim new lands lately, seeing as there's no benefit to doing so at the moment.
If there's anything we can do to help, let your players know. I just sent you some coins, hope it buys you some inspiration!
