emptyT Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Hi Brit Effin' fantastic job you've done here m8 - ignore the whinging! What were you gonna use the Freighters for?? Mass transport? Is there a way of making the hovercraft use land and sea? I've messed with the editor but it seems its an either/or choice. Is that correct? Keep your chin up Dood - you've done an extraordinary job here on your own! Most developers have 100's of peeps working on a single project.

Brit Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Hi Brit Effin' fantastic job you've done here m8 - ignore the whinging! Thanks. What were you gonna use the Freighters for?? Mass transport? The original idea for freighters is that they would give some bonuses to production. They would move around automatically between cities on different islands. If someone happened to be doing naval combat against you they can come in and start sinking your freighters, which would reduce your empire's ability to produce new stuff. Is there a way of making the hovercraft use land and sea? I've messed with the editor but it seems its an either/or choice. Is that correct? No, there's no way to make units like hovercraft that function on both the land and sea. I suppose the closest thing would be to create an air unit, but that has some problems as well since air units ignore terrain.

emptyT Posted January 3, 2011 Author Share Posted January 3, 2011 Hi by icons I meant I found some extra units which aren't used in the game. Couple of questions: How does population increase? Are roads drawn in code? Is there a way of making a road building unit? Whats the new job? Is it a new project? or are you working for a large developer? or can't you say:) np if it is the later.

Brit Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Hi by icons I meant I found some extra units which aren't used in the game. Couple of questions: How does population increase? Population increases automatically, but the rate of increase is based on your food reserves. If you have low food reserves, your population grows slowly. If you have lots of food, your population grows faster. It never grows quickly, but there is an increase. Are roads drawn in code? Is there a way of making a road building unit? Roads are created at the beginning of the game and don't change. So, there's no road-building unit. Whats the new job? Is it a new project? or are you working for a large developer? or can't you say:) np if it is the later. I'm working on a contract for NASA. Seems like interesting work.
