The Last Colonies - Sci-fi TBS/RP - OOC / Always Open

[Cainesland]

Actually, the reason why I'm not yet done with shy's turns is the dilemma of higher pop vs more advanced Technology.

Would it help you if I worked on my first quarter? Or would it be best to leave that to the gov?

I am dropping out of this RP. Thank you for letting me play.

G-tech, I noticed that you chose to set up shop next to the HE base but not on it. Is it more beneficial, from your point of view, to colonize later to take prime resources and use the starting module for something besides the geoscanner? Or to take a prime resource first and use geoscanner?

Well, it depends on your point of view.

I chose to settle between petroleum and HE, but not on either, because settling on either would mean I would have to establish a 'null' base as my secondary base in order to extract both. I also have the luxury of no other colonies on my land mass, so I didn't feel any great need to immediately lay claim to the resource of my choice. In a more populated region I would certainly have dropped with a Geo-Scanner, because Petroleum alone is a very useful source of energy, and vital to warfare.

Thanks for letting us know.
Also, I'm disappoint.

[Harkback Union]

It always was meant to be.

Figured as much. Would've been nice to know before I sent colonists off to the region though Any word on an Xenofungus/Wasteland rebalance?

Also, Pac, I'm pretty sure you need workers to run the Light Factory.

Wait till Turn 20.

- Mining
- Habitation pod
- geological scanner
- Hydroponics farm
- lab

How is that? Is it better to have a solar panel, or is that fine?

Edit: upon reflection, It appears that I'm going with G-techs recommendation.

If it's still possible I would still be desiring the philanthropist governor. Preferably with a slight mixture with the industrial governor in order to improve building speeds that would benefit the philanthropist governor.

BEHOLD!

The Economy Computer!

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... sp=sharing

It can't apply health and happiness penalties yet, but I'm working on it! Anyone can use them. The computer can auto-import values from the above table, as long as you do the copy-pasting right. New Rows can be added for new factions if need be.

So, Who's gonna try it out first?

Instructions:
List how many facilities you have of each type and how many of them are in operation. Then, Look at the bottom to see the results. If you have negative manpower, Food, Energy, Metal, Petrol or anything else besides Health, Happiness or environment, then... well, the economy plan cannot be carried out then.

Should we still do that if a governor is handling our mechanics? I imagine not but I thought I should ask.

Well, with the power of the eco computer, anyone should be able to do their own economy.
And If you still want a governor, he will use the computer aswell.

Thank you. I can't really post mechanics today as I am busy volunteering, so I will be still desiring a governor.

All right then, I shall start working on it within 48 hours. I'm also a lil busy.

No posts overnight? I am disappoint.

So am I. Trying to recruit some more people.

Hmm yes, I'll do that. They can take the slow pods

Also I think Aur wanted feedback on their post, and a quick glance showed me at least a few errors. That might be good feedback from you to help everyone understand the system.

Yes, I TGed him about the missing metal.

Also, Now that we have the computer, everything should get super easy rules wise. You'll have to look up the rulebook from time to time for building costs and techs, but other then that, there is nothing else to keep in mind. I left some space Underneath the table for info you want to store about your faction. Once done with a turn, simply copy-paste the entire block below the last block. Be sure to leave out exactly 3 space between the new block and the black line. If you did it correctly, the Computer will import leftover resources from the block above.

Cools. He also had a few issues with how research and BP worked at a glance.

I'm looking forward to trying out this computer.

It can do everything except for:
Happiness / Health Penalty applying.
Some classs C and class M facilities (nobody built those yet so it should be cool).
Account for some sophisticated things like which population is in which base, research and build progress, Multiple slums and Housing complexes.

Holy scheisse. That's a serious spreadsheet.

I think I'll stick to my version. So, it'll be Year 6 soon, does that mean I'll get some nifty Xenofungus buffs?

I already added spice into the mechanics... but I'm yet to get around to make an IC post about it.

Oh come now, all you have to do is to type in to the green fields how much facilities you have of what kind and it will give you the end results.
Piece of cake.

So much typing though.

Plus I'm an old dog. We don't learn new tricks- I can do my posts from phone off of memory, but the spreadsheet hates my iphone
