I checked in the Mayor's half of the code today - This will enable Mayors to flag a Citizen as 'safe' to avoid the packup that starts on May 1. This will be internally tested over the next few days, then introduced to TCP soon after.
Here's the layout:
* Mayors can now access the 'Safe House Management' System via the City Management Options on the City Terminal.
* Mayors will be able to flag up to 20% of their current Citizen Rank requirements (example, a Level 1 City will receive 1 Safe Citizen option, a Level 5 City will receive 8 Safe Citizen options).
* When a Citizen is flagged as 'safe' - Any Packable Structure the 'Safe Citizen' owns inside of that city will be considered 'safe' and will be exempt from the City House Packup Rules. Structures outside of the Resident City/In another City will not be considered 'safe' and will fall under the Inactive Citizen Ruleset.
Should any City lose rank and be over its maximum number of 'Safe Flags':
* The Mayor will be sent an In-Game Mail warning him that he/she is over the City's Limit.
* After 4 days (about halfway through a weekly update cycle), if the Mayor has not corrected the issue, it will be automatically corrected for him. The system will determine which 'Safe Citizen' to remove based on the length of time they have been offline. The 'Safe Citizen' with the fewest number of days offline will have his/her 'Safe Flag' removed...and will continue down the list until the Mayor is within the confines of the system.

*Disclaimer*: There is no guarantee the system will remain the same as stated above - we have just entered the Testing Phase; should any changes need to be made, the system would likely change slightly. Millbarge is in no way responsible for the downsizing of Cities across the Galaxy due to Inactive Citizens (Please contact the Inactive Citizens directly).
