To place characters in Become a Trillionaire on Roblox, pick an unlocked character from your inventory hotbar and position them on your tycoon plot using your platform's placement controls. Once placed, your characters generate cash every second, which you walk over to collect until you unlock automated collection upgrades.
Platform Placement Controls
The developer group Hack A Game outlines dedicated control schemes across PC, mobile, and console for managing and positioning units on your plot:
| Platform | Pick Character | Place Character | Rotate Character | Open Inventory | Open Menus |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PC | 1–0 keys | Left Click | R | B | On-screen UI |
| Mobile | Tap character | Tap Place button | Tap Rotate button | On-screen UI | On-screen UI |
| Console | LB / RB to switch | RT | Y | D-pad Down | D-pad Left |
When you place your very first character onto your plot, you unlock the official "Builder" badge.
How Character Placement and Income Generation Work
After pulling characters from the Shop, placing them forms your core passive income engine:
- Obtain units from crates: You buy and open crates in the Shop—ranging from basic Wooden Crates up through Iron, Steel, Ruby, Amethyst, and Sapphire Crates—to pull characters like Elves, Chefs, Cowboys, Samurais, and Doctors.
- Position on your plot: Select a unit from your inventory bar and position it on any open floor space.
- Collect generated income: Characters produce physical cash piles every second on your plot. You collect funds by manually walking over them, or automatically if you purchase the 69 Robux Auto Collect pass or invest Rebirth Points into the in-game auto-collect upgrade.
- Expand total capacity: The game tracks overall plot capacity across multiple levels. According to the game's official badge data for "Full House," players can unlock up to five floors to hold a maximum of 500 characters simultaneously.
Assigning Characters to Boss Events
In addition to base income generation, placed characters are used during limited-time combat activities such as the Pumpkin Boss event:
- Players place their two highest-stat characters directly onto designated event battle plots.
- The placed units automatically attack the boss to deplete its health bar within the time limit.
- Dealing damage and completing boss encounters yields event currency such as pumpkins, event upgrades, and combat-related badge achievements like "Boss Battler."
Upgrading and Merging Placed Units
Once your plot starts filling up, you can optimize space and earnings through several native upgrade systems:
- Merging: Using the in-game merge machine, players can combine duplicates of the same character to open up plot slots and improve efficiency, unlocking the "Merged" badge on the first attempt.
- Mutations and Auras: Characters can acquire special statuses, such as the Aura mutation, which grants the "Mutated" badge. Server-wide events can also boost active mutation rates.
- Rebirth Multipliers: Resetting cash for Rebirth Points allows you to purchase permanent account upgrades, including direct cash boosts, crate luck multipliers, and offline time bonuses that multiply the output of all placed units.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why can't I place more characters on my plot?
You may have filled all available floor space on your active level. To place more units, you can merge duplicate characters at the merge machine to free up slots, or expand your build by unlocking higher floors up to the 5-floor, 500-character cap.
Do I lose my placed characters when I rebirth?
Gameplay testing shows that characters remain in your possession across rebirths, while your accumulated cash converts into Rebirth Points used for permanent multipliers.
Can I give placed characters to other players?
Yes. Become a Trillionaire features a native gifting mechanic that allows you to send characters to friends, which also triggers the game's "Generous" badge.
