With the boards getting smaller as you have more i gets impossible to see the number of upgrades. It would be nice if the upgrades popped out as a big number when you hover over a board.

If you want to maximize income and reduce lag, just click on a basic brickout game and let it idle there. No reason to idle on a screen that has 100 boards on it.

The lawn mower seems to vary in DPS depending on where you place it, There's a sweet spot a bit left of the middle to get the maximum though.

In the bottom right corner of the menu screen, next to the "buy new boards" button, there are five black circles. Click on the second one from the right, which looks like a coffee mug. It'll open up what looks like a spreadsheet, and at the very bottom you can see the cash you have available. That should reduce some of the lag. You can also lower the quality (middle circle) and mute sound/music (leftmost circles), if you wish.

I made a wikia for Idleplex due to the amount of questions in chat... Soooo, if you know stuff, please contribute: idleplex.wikia.com

is there something i'm missing? Does the pigs, cows and crackerpiler do something more than add a minor amount of dps?

This kind of lag fest without options to disable it makes me think the dev didn't play his own creation for more than a few hours xD

I find this game to be poorly designed and not fun. The rooms lag, there's no way to reduce the lag besides restarting, too many of the features are confusing and have no explanation (what is berzerk?), the upgrade prices become ridiculous too fast, there's almost no benefit to manual interaction, some of the rooms are worthless, etc etc. The only redeeming quality is that it seems fairly well implemented.

Extreme Brickout tiles really are underwhelming. I've maximized at least one of each main type of tile, and Brickouts are only pulling about 2500 DPS, where as the Starshooter is at 20000, the Mower is at 25000, and the Animal Jumping ranges anywhere from 10000 to 25000 (depending on when the timing lines up). If you really expect us to buy all of the boards, then they should all eventually pull about the same output to make it worthwhile.

For all those who are complaining about lag, all you need to do is have an empty board of the very first board type, with very few particles, and you don't have all of the particles from all of your boards combined onto your page, slowing it down. 1 second in the game is 1 second for me, and I have been playing for quite a while, a couple hours now. All of the particles don't affect your time unless you are looking at all of your pages, so just stay off of the main page unless you are changing boards

@Daziman ever heard of a "sweet spot"? if not, theres an FAQ on one of the kong forums. im not giving you the link. go find it yourself.

The Lawnmowing boards has a bug calculating the DPS. Sometimes it calculates 5000 (for example), then I move the mouse, put the board in idle mode and it calculates 2500.

I have two lawnmowers. They have identical upgrades. One makes three times as much as the other.
Programming error much?

Why do people feel the need to cheat on highscore boards? I think Kong should erase their scores/votes/and perma ban their accounts.

How come the upgrades don't decrease in price when you buy the previous upgrade? Would be nice to have cumulative pricing.

Kewlkarl - you have a 9K difference, right now I got 2 Mowers running at 63000DPS and 2 running at 27000DPS - All max upgrades and mowers in same positions

boards from best to worst IDLE when fully upgraded:
mower (constant 25k if you set the mower in the right position while pressing escape, berserk is not needed at all for this)
animal jumping (17-23k)
star shooter (16-22k)
poopmonger (4-27k, can go as high as 100k if you actively play and click the huge number of gold poops on the bottom like crazy)
brickout (2-3k, buy these last)
gardening (<1k-2k, the real value is from the seeds, which give you pigs, cows and a 3x multiplier if actively maintained by growing more of everything and clicking as needed)

in just two hours I went from making a couple dollars an hour to over $16,000 per second, and you can too by joining this simple website!

I don't really like it that I can end up with a difference of 9000 DPS between two different boards when they have the EXACT same upgrades.

Dont move my lawnmowers when you resize the boards >_< (Buying a new board when the screen is filled causes the remaining boards to shrink and the lawn mowers move)

max boards went down after I deleted progress to try and organize my board better >_> hope they fix the game up in future ^^ re-arranging board and options to disable some graphics would be nice (:

reloading the page by using the right-click -> reload page will fix the presistent price-issues after resetting your progress. after the reload the prices are back to their normal level as tehy should be.

If you are having a problem with the board cost not reseting when you delete your progress delete your progress, refresh your page, and reset again. KEEP THIS ALIVE!!!

This could be a design choice, but it might be better if upgrading something reduced the cost of the next upgrade by the cost of the current upgrade.
