While playing an Idle level, the rewards 4 hour timer expired but the game did not display the icon to restart it. I had to close the game and restart it to display the icon. (It works fine if the timer expires while the game is idle. It displays properly when I return.)

I've seen all sorts of variants of that issue Marc ... sometimes it happens, sometimes it's doesn't.

Has anyone had success recently getting the "Achieve 50M money / sec in Idle" achievement? Fizzer dropped it from 100M to 50M with this update, but it seems to me that it is still impossible with the current levels.

From what I have seen, Hardened Triskelion is probably the highest income level, and I'm not even close to 50M. The highest I'm aware of on this level is about 19M/Sec with the following:
- Legendary Bonus Money Boost Artifact.
- Maxed Bonus Money AP advancement
- All Bonus/Territory Techs unlocked.

You may be able to get it above 20M with a good territory money boost artifact, but I don't see a realistic path to more than doubling that money/sec mark.

DELETED: sorry, I thought this was about army income ;)

EDIT: Are there Clan Wars rewards that improve money income? And: You can simultaneously use a Territory Money Boost artifact.

@MWL

I think 49M money per second is theoretically possible with the following setup.

* Revision 16 United States
* +100% Increased Money from Bonuses advancement
* Insane Territory Money Boost artifact
* Insane Bonus Money Boost artifact
* Full Techs

It could be possible that some levels are even better than Revision 16 United States.

I have the "Achieve 50M money / sec in Idle" though I probably got it when it was 100M/sec and way back when money was different. It was easy then, think I was actually earning hundred's of B/sec at some points. Now it seems that it'd be pretty difficult. I've had a number of 9-10M/sec.

So maybe with some better artifacts & popping with SACs, you might be able to get to it. It'd only be briefly but should be long enough for the achievement to pop.

@krinid, I had the same idea but then re-read the question and discovered that the topic was money, not armies. To reiterate what I deleted from my answer: supercharging an army camp should work to get any of the "x armies per sec" achievement (I think I earned one this way earlier on), but there is no such power that gets you more money per sec. And selling a lot of stuff doesn't increase your static money income, at least not when it comes to this exact statistics number. So, only chance is spend AP into the right advancement(s) and have both money artifacts at insane (or at least legendary) and then find the best level to do this in.

Edit: @functor: not everyone has the option to replay previous level revisions, so if there is no chance to earn this achievement in the current level revisions, then either this achievement has to be lowered even further or this achievement is some sort of promise for a level with way higher money income that then should come pretty soon. At least that's my opinion.

so is it even possible

Yep, the 50M/ sec achievement looks unachievable atm. I finished Hard Triskelion yesterday which seems to be the highest money generator unless USA throws me a surprise.

With all techs, no artifacts, and 100% Increased Money from Bonuses (AP advancement) I was at 13.65 M/sec.
Rare BMB adds 1.71 M/sec.
Rare TMB adds 1.12 M/sec.

This implies that:
Epic BMB => 3.42 M/sec
Leg BMB => 6.84 M/sec
Insane BMB => 13.68 M/sec

Epic TMB => 2.24 M/sec
Leg TMB => 4.48 M/sec
Insane TMB => 8.96 M/sec

So with 100% in the advancement, all techs, and both artifacts at insane you are capped at ~36.29 M/sec.

It should probably be lowered to 15M/sec since 20M/sec requires a legendary artifacts while 25M/sec and above require an insane artifact.

Hmmm, not sure that should really be considered "possible". It's only even possible in a select few cases for someone with (a) lots of money invested to buy Legendaries to upgrade to Insanes, or (b) someone who has played the game for longer than it has been out to collect enough Insane artifacts [come back in a few years], or (c) someone who has INSANE LUCK and gets the 6% Rare and 3% Epic artifacts on every dig and is thus able to actually upgrade a get a few Insanes.

I'm doing HC, HT & HEH right now, and HEH at end is 1.44M/sec with +100% Bonus Money Adv, +80% Bonus Money artifact, +200% Territory Money artifact. So not even close.

HC also not in the ballpark. HT seems to be the highest money maker, and as per Xeno's note, it's not possible for most.

If money has gone down since the Achievement was created, it needs to follow suit.

What about level techs?

Pls reword the question.

I guess he meant that you, krinid, haven't mentioned techs when you analyzed the maps you talked about. While Xeno did. So my interpretation of the rudimentary question would be: Do techs change the outcome and can techs get you to the required level of money income (in combination with advs and artifacts) to get the achievement?
But given how far from the required limit of the achievement you are in those levels, I assume that techs won't change a thing (or that you already included them and just didn't mentioned them because including techs in those kinds of analyses seems obvious).

But I could be wrong in both parts and either techs do get you to the achievement or he meant something completely different.

I don't recall if I got all the Techs or not, but typically I only bother with the ones in the chain of the Merc Discounts, Hospital Discounts, Alloy/item values, Hospital savings, +50% cache and the simple ones in the +Army & Territory/Bonus Income/Draft increase. The money income ones don't increase that much, and certainly wouldn't be enough to bridge the gap between what we ended the levels on and what's required for the achievement.
