Starting a City At the bare minimum, you need a player-crafted City Hall relevant to the planet you wish to start a city on, you need a Politician to place the city hall (and to remain as Mayor of the city), you need an area of ground that can support a good-number of houses, and you also need at least 10 other players to place houses and declare residence within the initial 150m radius of your city within 24 hours of placing the city hall. Creating a successful city takes planning and dedication; don't think because it doesn't take skill points that there is no required commitment on the part of the player. An important thing to keep in mind is that you are creating a community, and that in order to do so you will need to rely on many individuals to make it happen. A Player City is not a solo venture. Please note that it takes 24 hours to process a change of residence for a player. If there was no previous residence, the declaration takes place immediately. I want to start a city on Corellia/Tatooine/Naboo/Talus/Lok/Rori/Dantooine. Can I do that? A: The number of player cities that can be placed is capped. The 3 main worlds of Corellia, Naboo, and Tatooine are able to hold 20 and the moons and adventure worlds of Talus, Rori, Dantooine, and Lok can hold up to 50 cities. It is important to note that there is also a cap on the number of cities that can achieve a certain rank. While the core worlds of Corellia, Naboo, and Tatooine can have a total of 20 cities, only 15 can be at rank 3 or above and only 10 can be at rank 4 or above. The moons/adventure planets of Talus, Rori, Dantooine, and Lok can have 30 cities at or above rank 3 and 20 at or above rank 4. How do I know if a planet is capped? A: There is no way to know for certain the number of player cities on a world (it requires rank 3 to be visible on the map as a true city and not all are able to reach that rank) but a simple way to get a general idea is to open up your world map and select the mission terminal tab. That will show where all the mission terminals on the world are located at; ones sitting in the middle of nowhere are towns that take up one of those spots. The only certain way to know is to attempt to place a city hall on the planet; if it is capped you will receive a system message stating that the hall cannot be placed How far do I have to be from another city hall/NPC city? A: 1000m
