    Working out a new Economy GUI for Demo 7

    I think we should try to put some of these great principles to work! One big issue with D6 was that the econ interface, that is quite detailed, was it for managing the economy. Over the next several days, I'd like to put together with whoever's interested a higher level, and more functional interface. There will first be an analysis job, figuring out what we want, and then a coding job. The whole thing should be done at a crude level in several weeks, so don't volunteer for the coding job if you've got too much real life during that period...

    I will put together a dedicated thread on the topic as soon as I can, and link to it here. I don't have the brain power tonight to do it. But the reason I'm bringing it up is that there is something anyone who's interested could do... Play D6 and Read the Econ Manual to find out what the economy does so we can have a meaningful, grounded discussion when I get my act together

    And for those who take up the challenge, please give us any other comments on D6 you have. This is coming up on the last chance to convince us to do something you want in D7! But no guarantees .

      This sounds an excellent scheme. Especially since it takes it off my plate. Please keep me in touch with events if you do anything via email.

      Cheers

        hey mark...

        I like the idea of the dedicated thread...

        I made some really important home-work with swing... but nothing convince me... since i have some problems trying to understand what do you want for the economy screen...

        maybe you can explain in the new thread what's the idea for the economics..

        see ya...

          Hi All:

          I have started the econ gui thread, although presently it is a mismash of information as opposed to a solid proposal. The link is:
