The while you are waiting game

[Hercules]

The while you are waiting game.

This game is supposed to (and does it very well ) occupy us in between ACDG3 turns.
Any Angels player can play the Angels turn. The code word is Jazz.
Geo set out very well as the first player and I have continued since: I am not sure whether by accident or just timing. Anyway in the lastest turn the game froze on me (forgot to empty trash can) so I have the choice of a reload or one of you play the turn.

In principle any player can play it as they see fit but the first posted response, with turn attached is the one that counts. The game is not supposed to have much advanced consultation, so all I will say is I was planning to change to FM next turn to cash crawlers.

If nobody plays soon then I guess |'ll continue. And post reload mesage.

[FlameFlash]

I've looked at the turn a few times, but the problem is I have no idea where to go or what to do with it and feel like I'm playing somebody else's game.

[Hercules]

Well don't feel like that, read the signs go with the force.

Question: normally, if a base has +6 growth due to SE settings and facilities, should popboom yes? Because I got in this game 2 bases with +6 growth through demo/planned and Children's Creche but they haven't grown this turn.

[Mart]

population limit, 7 or 14.
food +1 or less
in such cases pop boom does not occur
Or it may be a bug?

[GeoModder]

Food +1, what do you mean by that? You mean only 1 rectangle of food extra/turn? That might have been it...

[Mart]

yes. There are 2 conditions for pop boom:

1. at least +2nut/turn in the base
2. population below the size limit (usually 7 or 14)

[GeoModder]

And with Golden Age, must be +2 food/turn as well be provided? Next to reaching +4 with facilities/SE-settings with the additional +2 from the Golden Age of course.

Herc: If any questions regarding the Minigame, shoot!

[Hercules]

Re questions I have already asked. Wish me luck. I will recommence mini game shortly.

[Hercules]

I will have to advise that I need to download the turn again as my saved game after I opened the turn to see what was happening, is acting funny. I can't move units. I can't change workers to specialists and the colours are strange.

[GeoModder]

Just tell 'em so in the 'Waiting' thread.

[Hercules]

Have done so; just wondered if this was the same problem you encountered earlier.

[GeoModder]

Nope, the faction distribution is my standard now on my SMACX installment, so don't even got 'wrong' graphics for the factions.

Btw, did you try to open it in SMAC or SMACX?

[Hercules]

Smacx of course
