Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Well I’m back from vacation…a nice relaxing week away where I can honestly say I didn’t touch my game once. I guess even the “head addict” can spend some time away 😉 Of course spending a full week away from the game naturally only makes for chaos and confusion when EA throws a new questline at us early this morning. This time around Homer’s a bit worn out (I guess he could use a vacation too…) from being the only Monorail Conductor and falls asleep behind the controls! No worries though, Professor Frink has the answer…and it comes from Glass! (because it’s all about that glass…)
This time around we’re introduced to another depot for our town’s…the Glass Depot! Yes another place for you to turn your junk into “treasure” and add yet another element to the project board.
So let’s break everything down from the Glass Depot to the One Track Mind questline….
So let’s start things off with a quick overview on the Glass Depot…
The Glass Depot will unlock at Part 2 of One Track Mind (see below for questline details) and it works basically the same way the Plastic and Metal Depots works. You turn junk into glass.
Just like Metal and Plastic each turn through the Glass Depot requires 100
Each turn through the Glass Depot takes 3hrs, so one hr more than the Plastic Depot.
And each turn through will earn you 10
And finally, here’s a list of characters you can send to earn Glass:
Quimby 10
Willie 10
Dewey Largo 15
Jesse Grass 15
Bart 10
Marge 10
Moe 10
Glass will work just like Plastic, Metal and Trash…in that you can turn it in at the Project Board in exchange for Duct Tape:
The one KEY difference is the Cap for Glass is much lower…
Your Glass Depot CAP is 70. There is no way to increase this.
So once you hit 70 and you’re maxed out, you cannot increase it you can only spend it.
And yes I’m aware that some of you will point out that you can go over it if you’re close and send all the characters out to earn glass. So yes, there is the potential to go over..but the cap itself is 70, and it cannot be increased. (unless you manipulate sending your characters)
And those are your Glass Depot basics…
