Double or Nothing Exploit

Due to the small delay before losing/doubling your tangerines after a double or nothing roll, you can watch it till it slows down, then swap to the stocks screen and buy/sell stocks as you want.

Results: You can double your money over and over with no risk of losing it.

Nice catch. If you have volume on, you can swap right as it hits "Nothing" for the final time, and then on the stock screen listen for a final tick that indicates it went to "Double". If you don't hear that tick within a second of switching screens, buy a stock, wait a second, then sell it again.

That's pretty clever. I guess I'd better lock other transactions while a gamble is in progress.

Or you could make the money gain/loss happen as soon as the ticker stops.

Or remove the tangerines when the game is started and return double amount if you win.

These are both better ideas than mine! I've implemented Coldbreads solution so it should be fixed when I next update the game (later tonight).

You can also refresh the screen.
