Bug causing Emperor Palpatine mission to not register

star-wars-tiny-death-star

I have a mission stating to "Have 5 Bitizen(s) move in". I have built 2 residential levels, the first one I allowed the slots to fill in gradually/naturally. Once all five bitizens moved in I checked the mission and it didn't register as finished. The second residential level I had used one of my saved VIP's (the Recruiting officer) and filled up the lvl instantly but to no avail. The mission is still not recognizing at finished and requires 5 Bux to skip, which I really do not want to use up if at all possible.

Does anyone know why this is happening and if there is a way to fix it?

There have been numerous reports of the Emperor's missions not registering. Most seem to have resolved themselves after waiting for a period of time.

In any case, the Emperor's missions are not critical to completion of the game, and the payout is not very good for them. So, continue playing the game, and if it resolves, great. If not, it should not hamper your enjoyment of the game.

The Emperor's missions are merely a guide for playing the game, but if you choose to disregard the missions, you can build any levels you like.

UPDATE: I had the same mission just today. And, while I'm certain I had 5 more more bitizen move in here and there, I did not receive the credit until using a recruiting agent and having 5 move in on a new residential floor.
