Like on NationStates2, you got 500 words. If we could have something like that, it would be nice.


This sounds familiarly like the National Factbook Entry which is a suggested improvement that was quite popular among players, including [violet].

However 500 words is chinsy, try unlimited words at NSwiki !!!

Add off-game calculator for stats other than economic

Postby Limicon Cardoid » Mon Feb 08, 2010 1:02 am

I saw the NSEconomy calculator and I REALLY enjoy it. Although, it made me wonder if there was a calculator for other statistics. What about national average happiness, population growth, percentage of population in each economic tier (working class, middle class, etc), whether the basic social unit is (nuclear family, extended family, or a polyamorous family), values that the majority hold, average national IQ and EQ, economy sector percents (like sure the leading industry in your nation is arms, but what percent of your national economy does it own?), literacy rates, education levels through the economic tiers, I think you all get the idea.

Basically, I know the power of role playing, and I know in-game functions like this would be bad. However, an off-game calculator for any of this would be nice. Even a simple sociological calculator would be cool. Let me know if anything like that exists, or if it will please.

Hi Unibot,

In a reply to the suggestion for "Making "The" optional before each Nation's prefix (NS Customzation)", I also have suggested before that it would be at least a good move to make pre-titles optional for nations with over 500 million citizens. I note several real-life nations that actually do not have pre or post titles such as Japan and Ukraine. Please take note, thank you.

Though that would probably conflict with the [nation] tags that use [nation=long] as their default. I'll add it under NationStates Customization like you said. Dah!

Personally I think, "The Non-Existent Pre-title of Charlotte Ryberg" has a bit of a ring to it. :p

Max Barry doesn't have time for that.

Selecting that option won't make your nation Catholic, it just has an effect and alters the calculators. You can choose your nations national religion via an Easter egg issue.

Yup. As has been pointed out to you before, there are a number of free image servers available online. Personally, I use Photobucket, but there are plenty to be had, if you're looking for somewhere to upload your images.
