Player Cities
A Player city is a type of city established and maintained by players. The mayor administers a player city through the city control panel in the archive room of the city hall.
Requirements
The steps to establishing a player city are:
- Place a deed for a City Hall on a planet that has not reached:
- 20 cities on Corellia, Naboo, or Tatooine
- 50 cities on Dantooine, Lok, Rori, or Talus
- Not closer than 1500m of another player city
- The character with which you place the City Hall deed will automatically declare its residence as the City Hall.
- Four additional characters must place a house within 150 meters of City Hall and declare residence within 24 hours.
Rank Levels
- City rank updates weekly, depending on when the city was founded and at the earliest city pulse thereafter (happens every few hours).
- Upgrades can only happen one at a time, same with city downgrades
- Player city rank is determined by citizenship and enables the following civic structures:
| Rank | Title | Citizens | Radius | Enabled civic structures |
|---|
| 1 | Outpost | 5 declared | 150 m | Small gardens |
| 2 | Village | 10 declared | 200 m | Medium gardens, Bank, Garage, Cantina |
| 3 | Township | 15 declared | 300 m | Large gardens, Cloning facility, Hospital |
| 4 | City | 30 declared | 400 m | Shuttleport, Theater |
| 5 | Metropolis | 40 declared | 450 m | |
The exact time for the city update can be determined from the City Terminal located in City Hall. Before taxation and city maintenance, the city rank and citizenship are validated. If the city has enough citizens to advance, the city is promoted. If the city does not have enough citizens to maintain its current rank, it is demoted. The Mayor is notified of any changes in city rank.

Commands
- /grantZoningRights - This can be done by either the Mayor or Militia members. It can sometimes be done remotely, but often times it requires both parties to be inside the city, and the Mayor/Militia member needs to have the prospective citizen selected in order to work properly.
- /installMissionTerminal - The mission terminal will be installed facing in the direction the Mayor is facing when the terminal is selected
- /recruitSkillTrainer
Specializations
A specialization gives the city a bonus in some area for an increased cost in city maintenance. Different city specializations are available provided the city is of sufficient rank (minimum of Rank 3). A city can have only one specialization at a time and may only be changed once a week (to take effect with the next city update). Once a specialization is put into effect, it remains until the mayor changes or removes it.
| Specialization | Benefit |
|---|
| Clone Lab | the cost of clone insurance is reduced by 20% |
| DNA Laboratory | 3 hours reduction per incubation session |
| Encore Performance | Storyteller items last an extra 12 hours |
| Entertainment District | Increased entertainer buff duration (+30 min) and tick (+3) |
| Improved Job Market | 15% bonus payout for missions accepted from terminals. |
| Manufacturing Center | 10% bonus to prototype assembly results, reduced chance of failures |
| Research Center | 15% bonus to the final result roll during the experimentation phase of crafting |
| Sample Rich | 20% bonus to sample sizes and a 10% bonus to extraction skill checks during resource collecting by handsampling. |
| Outdoor Enhancement | Increases the number of Civic Structures and City Decorations that can be placed by 33% |
