Hey there minions. Just hopping in with an update on trending glitches that we have been seeing over the weekend.
“Array not found for key CharacterDialog”
They are currently investigating this issue further. But they would like more information on the games impacted by this one. Please email us your player ID if you know it (we know you may not be able to get in your game to get it). familyguyaddicts@gmail.com
ENGINE_CONFIG_ERROR
They are currently looking into this. We will update when we get word back on progress. In the mean time keep sending in reports to TinyCo.
If you need to contact them, you can find their email and contact info HERE in case you need it.
UPDATE: A fix for the ERROR CONFIG was pushed by TinyCo. If you are still seeing this, please let us know.
Bad Alloc or Allocation Error
This one pops up from time to time in the game, a simple force close/hard close usually resolves it.
So if you are seeing any one of the top two issues, make sure you alert TinyCo right away. As for the other, only do so after all troubleshooting is attempted. If you are experiencing another Glitch outside these two, please check the other Glitch post first for more info.

So is the game basically over once you max out to level 50?
LikeLike
No. The levels mean nothing. This game is all about districts. Seriously the levels do absolutely nothing for you. Districts are what unlock characters and buildings.

I am completely caught up with the game where I am probably past what I should be at. However, there is an issue with the poltergeist. What happens when I “kill” one it doesn’t show up on my quests that I did it. Because there are two quests, one you have to trap 2 and another 3 day event to trap 8. Both say zero and I have trapped 3 or more. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!!

Ok I have played this game for a while, and now, I am done, have never spent money on this and never will, it seems these events just suck money out of players and it’s sickning’ seriously people you are going to spend money on THIS? Everything is a rip off, I enjoyed it but with these events if you don’t spend money you don’t get the good things, SCREW THIS! Tinyco, you have lost my approval, and have lost a costumer because it is stupid to pay money on this game, it is not even entertaining, THIS GAME IS JUST SUCKING MONEY FROM STUPID PEOPLE!

Peter is all glitched out..has been for a while now. He’s finally Visable when he’s walking around, but when they have the little skits he’s disordered and other characters don’t even show up half the time. & I’ve been having problems visiting neighbors. I haven’t been able to visit friends at all without it crashing my game & for a while before that, I’d get to the friends game &first one i couldn’t tap, second one i could tap, but couldn’t see the clam/coins & it would usually repeat that then finally it’d work right if I were lucky. ***** cause I’m trying to save up to get Cleveland since I got he game the day after blue moon harvest. But he’s bla-aack 😀 if only I could get the clams for him -,-

I have engine config error and it doesn’t let me play on my ipad. I can play on my iphone, but it isn’t the same. It’s very annoying cause tqfs is my main game and I’m used to playing it frquently. It is so annoying to play on the phone instead of ipad, but I see no point of even contacting them about it. Last times I have done it , the support back has taken so long that the problem is already fixed by then and me contacting them turns out totally pointless. But this bug has stopped me from playing on my ipad for 2 days by now. Is there anyway to fix it by myself?
LikeLike
For now, we are waiting for word. You can try basic troubleshooting, but I do not know if it will even help. I assume they need to send a patch out but they need to isolate the issue first. That is more what writing in does to help. They can go into impacted games and see what is causing the issue and locate a fix. They may not respond to issues that are wide spread on a one on one basis, so no message back is a normal thing as them sending a patch for ALL impacted players is their response in a way.
Don’t worry if you do not see an answer every time. This one is more to help yourself and all the other players getting the error code. If no one writes in, they have nothing to look into to find the glitch.
Hope that makes sense.

Not sure if this is a glitch or not. I cleared the dawgs with Mayor West and did not get the coins like it said. It doesn’t matter of course as I’m sure it was only 10 each. Have you cleared you dawgs or waiting for a quest to tell you to do so after Haloween?
LikeLike
I Cleared them, I honestly don’t remember seeing coins or not. Could just be a texture glitch. I’d suggest contacting TinyCo to ask them what’s up.. 🙂

Thanks. Not worrying if coins counted just that it will count later if a quest pops up asking us to do so.

Is anyone having constant crashing. I have been playing on a S3 and it crashes everytime I play. I have just bought and S5 so we will see if the xtra power is an improvement. On an unrelated note, I have 4hours to unlock vinny to get the building is it worth speeding up. Is there any tasks in the building. If it remains empty I wont worry about speeding up. Also just tapped vinny to see how many cigars and knives I needed and he spoke! Is that new? I tried tapping him before and he was staying mute.

Hey after the day before event update hit (trust me..that makes sense) everytime I tried checking on the other towns I got booted..the fixed this with a patch the next day..and then one by one I started getting booted trying to visit my friends towns…realized this was happening every time a new friend unlocked Ghostbusters Peter I could no longer visit them (my friends and I have a group messenger open on fb and talk smack sll of the time) so I broke down everything to tinyco from my galaxy III to everything else and they wrote back it was extremely useful and they were going to let there engineers know. On top of that they gave me 30 clams for my trouble. Tinyco is an extremely customer friendly company it seems

I find this happens on iOS if you leave the game before they have finished “getting to” their task. So, if for example, they are walking to a building where their assigned is and you close the game, it will often not engage the task.

When they did the slight in game update earlier today, I was able to,start the game and not have the select screen showing up, so then I tried to visit a friends town and that worked too,, I did it a few times today..(still had to log I to Facebook each time to visit though)
But the game crashed when I went to use the cauldren, it crashed when I accidently tapped before the collect item page popped up, so when I got back, it was like it didn’t happen so I did it again and got my item, but then i tried to visit another town to see if it was affected and It was crashing again I tried a few times but it didn’t work.
(The reply from TinyCo on Monday was they will fix it In The next game update coming soon)
I did sent them a message today that the in game update didn’t last very long.

Yah, I still say to stay out of friends towns til it is resolved 100%. I know that may be frustrating, but I think worth it to avoid the crashing the visits cause.
