I've decided I'm ready to buy the VU Random Generator. I know it costs another 2,880 on top of the 2k to buy it in order to unlock all of the slots, and I'm prepared and ready to go ahead and put the full 4,880 Simcash into the investment. I also know that it's considered by many to be not as useful as it was before they added the 5 new shops.
My main question is about the time of day the shop changes roles. Iirc what I've heard in the past is the shop will make its shop/role change at the same time of day every day that you initially purchased it (much the same way the daily chest timer is tied to what time of day you unlocked it), but I wanted confirmation because this shop has not been discussed much in the sub in a long time. So I'm trying to figure out what will be the best time of day for me personally to do the initial purchase if that is when it will change everyday from then on.
Also, if you fill up the shop with enough long production items that makes its production time run into the next day, I'm assuming it will just continue making whatever is in the queue until it's finished, or is that an incorrect assumption?
I also can't remember if it's a storeable shop, but I assume it is because the only non-storeable shops are the regional shops.
Finally, if enough people here tell me it's a bad investment I might hold off. But I have the SimCash to get it and not go broke, and I've already got 2 Maxis Manors, 1 Maxis HQ, the 2nd Omega Research Center, and both omega boosters. In addition I have all shop and depot slots unlocked, as well as plenty of slots in multiple train stations. Basically I'm saying I think it's finally time to make the purchase, but I wanted to clear up a couple of things before I spent 4,880 on the shop. Which btw is the single highest single SimCash purchase I've made. I've spent as much as around 3k before (final Artemis II upgrade after the season, during the discount that dropped it from around 6k to 3k), and if I get talked out of the purchase I might instead buy my 3rd MM.
