Mayor powers, the ministerial roles, renaming, and reading city info.
The mayor can toggle city visibility and assign city roles to trusted members. Roles unlock as the city builds certain buildings and share specific responsibilities with the mayor:
/build and choosing the crest it flies from /city → 🛡 City Crest. Can also buy luxury goods at the Trading Post — but only until the city builds a Customs House, after which specialty buildings produce luxuries and that vendor section closes./craftworks./export, so the city's surplus keeps earning Treasury every hour. See the Export Market./city. See Minister of Zoning.Those six are every role a mayor can hand out. A role only appears in the /roles panel once the building that unlocks it is standing, so a young city sees a short list that grows as it builds. A player can hold more than one role at a time, and the mayor keeps every one of these powers regardless of who else holds them.
The mayor can change the city's display name (the friendly name with emojis) for 500💸 treasury. Open /city and tap ✏️ Rename City, then send the new name (up to 32 characters). The city's handle and web links stay the same, so nothing breaks.
Three rules on custom names. They can't contain a slash (/) or an at-sign (@). Chat turns those into links — an @ name becomes a tap-through to someone's account, and a name starting with / reads as a command — so names that would mislead people aren't accepted. A single letter can carry at most four accent marks: pile on more and they spill out of their line and smear over the text above and below. Four is more than any real writing needs, so this won't get in the way of a name in any language. And a name has to be one line — no line breaks or tabs, which stretch a name down the screen and shove everything below it out of view.
Everything else is fair game: letters, numbers, spaces, punctuation, apostrophes and emojis all work. All three rules apply to every name you type yourself — your city, your buildings, your districts and your pets — and names you already have are untouched.
