I'm getting really confused...is it really necessary to continue to complicate the research, its detracting from the game.


Umm - if tech level% means what I think it means, the amount we allocated to research, then you do realise that if we ADD it, then having a higher allocation to research will SLOW down research ie
40% allocated, 6 techs
6.4*2=12.8
50% allocated, 6 techs
6.5*2=13

[DarkCloud]

Sorry about the misunderstanding, XWaste.
techlevel% means the percent *not* used in researching techs.

If you level is 40% then the techlevel% would be 60%.

[XWaste]

O.K. - I'm going to make two assumptions and then change my tech. First, that the new formula is for level two techs and beyond - so we don't have to change our level one techs (which would just be a major pain right now)

And two, that the facs/SE bonus still applies (otherwise, why bother building research facs?)

So is the final formula

7 + [(TL% + #techs) * 2] - facs bonus

Where TL% is 100 - % allocated to research and then expressed as a decimal (ie 50 is .5)

Now please dont change it anymore...things are getting too exciting at the moment to be worrying about a few days in researching here or there

Darkcloud- as I was nosing through your databanks I kinda noticed something. You have plasma sentinels but are only now just starting to research high energy chemistry...did you mean synthmetal sentinels?

[DarkCloud]

I meant Synthmetal. Sorry Xwaste, all.

[XWaste]

Your researchers have discovered the Secrets of the Human Brain! The excitement of this discovery stimulates a burst of new research!

[DarkCloud]

Morgan has 3 cities;

Morgan Base- 2 Recon Rovers (Destroyed), 2 Sentinels(Attack 1)
Morgan Mercantile- 2 Sentinels (1 Recon Rover)
Morgan Node- 1 Sentinel

*University destroyes 2 Morgan Base Recon Rovers*

[DarkCloud]

XWaste: I assume my Laser Rover destroyed your strike rover and your Augmented Patrol then fled, because it would have to defend against Synthmetal Sentinels 1-2-1.

My Laser rover is now Veteran.

:comment mode: wow, you make lots of posts and long ones, keep up the good work!

[XWaste]

Um, DarkCloud...I kinda haven't attacked the university yet, but have just been gathering my troops in Gamma Heights in readiness...sorry if you got the wrong impression, but all my posts to date have been about readying, not deploying.

Its just that I've got a bit more up my sleeve than just one strike rover and an augmented patrol - so it was never my intention to only use these two units to attack.

Thanks for the compliment, I think everyone is doing a good job, I'm finding myself getting quite excited to read what people have posted next and often try to plan what I'm going to do when I'm meant to be doing other things, namely much neglected uni work

Okay, i got the site going and the maps updated...but some of the updates may conflict some things in the story like the peackeeper bases. But they are things that can be easily edited in the story, sorry





For rest of maps, go to http://www.geocities.com/melottawa/chiron.html

I'll just edit that post to say we have seen troop activity and are readying units.
