Please move this to its proper thread. Searching on this forum is not one of my strongest points.
Just to try I'll ask the question: Did you know?
The check-ins and the Mothers hip extend their lives the same way (if you have more check-ins or Mother-ships).
Here are a couple of examples. If you have checked into a business the time runs at double speed for one hour. Hence, if you run a job for 3 minutes while a check-in is activated the 3 minutes only takes 90 seconds. But did you know that once the countdown starts you can check back in with a new check-in and the time goes back to 1 hour. It doesn't add an hour, it only adds the minutes it takes to top you off at the hour mark again.
The Mother-ship boost works along the same lines. If you have more than one Mother-ship you can activate it anytime while the current one is being used and it will top you off at an hour again. You do have to make sure to be careful. If you are down to 55 minutes to go and activate the next Mother-ship you just used the second Mother-ship for 5 minutes of gain in time. The smarter thing to do, as a rule, would be to wait until the current Mother-ship only has a minute or so to go before activating
the next Mother-ship so you will get almost all your time. You might not want a gap in time if you are doing a blitz and losing a minute or so might be worth it to keep the clock running without a gap.
I thought someone might want to know. ;D
CORRECTION: This only worked with the Mother-ship the first time around. I'll have to figure out how to put more than one Mother-shop to use after the first run. Maybe by putting and taking out of storage? Okay, here is a real question; Does anyone know how to make this happen when you want it to beyond just the first time using them?
