Well, I'll work on getting to Level 40. I have steadfastly played this game with the mentality that "in reality, we want diversity on this island", so when I have built lots of hot dog stands for income and XP, or lots of golf courses for awards, and now lots of Business Centres with the exploit, I have ALWAYS played by my self-imposed rule on insisting I build a newly available building as soon as I can, and I always maintain at least one of every single building built on my island at all times, including monuments, defenders, every type of plant. So half of my island is taken up by "one of each building" meaning I have less space for many high-XP facilities. And I missed v1.1. I jumped straight from v1.0.21 to v1.1.1 meaning I did not get any piastres from the cleaning exploit so I still need lots of BCs.

But as I said, I will get there soon enough and confirm for you.

Basically, I am guessing it is simply a bug in that they have not coded some data table beyond Level 40 such that it takes you to Level 40 in RAM but a flag is not written in an array so when it loads the game data it reads it as Level 39 again and reads the "XP required for next level" array value as that for Level 40, so as soon as you gain an extra XP, it is triggered again.

Cool bug to exploit, as it would seem you are likely the first person to make it that high. I wonder if I can get that far before the fix that bug. (I still cannot believe they didn't fix the warehouse bug, it's been what, a month now?)
