How is the work coming guys? Some of the screen shots above from a couple of weeks ago were already looking very promising. Any downloads yet that we can take a look at yet? Thanks!
On the economic point, as was discussed in the Beta thread I hope the tax formula will be adjusted back to being more linear. Despite the seeming consensus of players, I never saw a response on that topic. Has there been a decision to support the alternate (non square root based) formula? Or is it still an open topic?
My wish list would look more like... 1. In the management screen, I want to be able to see the colony list with it showing the icons of the ships docked there so I can quickly see where I can build a fleet, where I forgot to set up autoforwards, and where I can see both population and whether or not a transport is in place. 2. A Check Box for whether or not to save a design for future games (I'd settle for it at the ship design
Lots of good discussion on taxes with an apparent consensus to move to a more linear alternate formula. Is it fair for us to ask if a decision has been made and what we might see in an updated beta release?
The alternative formula I've been playing around with is: Base Tax Income = Population^1.02 / 100 Therefore: NOW: Population = 15B = 122bc Population = 10B = 100bc Population = 5B = 70bc Population = 1B = 31bc PROPOSED: Population = 15B = 181bc Population = 10B = 120bc Population = 5B = 60bc<BR
I also take the build queue full of labs and forget approach.
