  • How did this turn out?
  • Downloading a design costs 5000 marks, and 5% of that (250 marks) is paid to the original designer as royalties

    Yikes. So it costs 15k to submit a design and we get a FLAT FEE of 250 marks if someone reuses it. This is…
  • (Quote) To add to this, it's too many lessons with too few skills. You need to spend hundreds of lessons to get 2-3 skills. It's daunting and discouraging to learn.
  • Song's calls have all been for leadership, there isn't another option like in SH. Also, afaik you can only get Song influence via cosmpiercers and quests, ie nothing super useful like helping newbies, donating gold, hosting events, leading group hun…
  • (Quote) There are more ways to help an org than just a PK objective, especially since the lack of CD means you aren't even guaranteed marks for the city at day turn, which makes it debatedly helpful for the org - but you are guaranteed a huge chun…
  • (Quote) They better like us Elgans! We host FABULOUS dance contests!
  • I had a pretty rough Christmas. My dad went into the ER on Christmas Eve 2 years ago and that's when we found the brain tumors which killed him a few months later, so the day brought up some bad memories. Last Christmas I slept for about 30+ hours. …
  • I gave out a pair of those at my party and they were the most popular prize. :chuffed:
  • I do want to reiterate that the lack of cosmpiercer cooldowns has given the people who do those basically max influence. It enables a very early control by a small group of players. 
  • Thanks to everyone who could make it. Lots of RP in Song, which is exciting to see!

  • Dreylith tries to tiptoe out of the room, hoping not to get noticed.

    Dreylith stomps away to the south.

  • @Skara - found your prophylactic:

  • Regarding the original topic, having no CD on cosmpiercers means that those who do them can rack up their faction influence to obscene levels.
  • As I vaguely suggested in my in-game post, maybe have cloning itself be free but take longer and have costs apply if you want a quicker rez or transport to another facility or other upgrades/perks.
  • (Quote) Hmm, that's giving a 404
  • IH shows it.
  • So my fiance has been holding our money to minimize cloning costs and we still only have a grand total of 16k, enough to submit a single design. I think it would be helpful to have two submission types - the current, expensive one for trademark and …
  • No, I mean the IRE documentation to play with making my own code.
  • Try being a nanoseer. Your attack AND heal is dependent on goggles. If they break, you just have to freeze and crash until you get enough gold or a replacement drops.
  • Where can I find documentation about the API? Looks like a great option.
  • Games are also meant to be fun. The challenges should be the content, not the grind to afford to access the content. A cost on death - not to mention losing all your profit from bashing when you drop junk (compared to other IREs where you die but at…
  • To add to repair ideas - let you select individual items to auto repair. My goggles keep breaking but repair costs are wasted on other items as they upgrade more often. Also maybe auto unequip if an item is nearly broken.
  • The issue with Song is that we have no access to any city privs without a leader. Also, just a more general question- what's to stop the CL from basically disbanding the government and rage quitting? Will we have to do all this again?
  • There is a skill in hacking to assess a terminal's strength, but I haven't been able to make it work.

  • The problem is that trial and error for this kind of stuff often involves dying.
  • (Quote) I got an untrapped error when I tried that and now I can't smoke joints. Maybe it's a Song feature. No drugs for the Dominion!
  • I love all the descriptions! I probe everything and read rooms as I bash/explore. The writing is wonderful and often has a great sense of humor tucked in there. Awesome builder work!
  • Yes, level 20, then 200 credits, then 900 lessons.
  • That still seems very high. If someone is leasing my design for retail (which I don't really understand, why would I want shops competing with me?) I can't price it very high as they can't make a profit if I do and they wouldn't buy. Sale price also…
  • (Quote) Config color will let you customize that! :)
