Resources now give more per day but last less time

Mickey · 10-05-2005, 12:58 PM

I just changed all of the resource values (on oil, cotton and diamonds) so that they'll last about 1/5 as long, but generate 5x more per day. This will result in earning you about the same amount of money, but should help to keep the map more available for others to place resources.

Please note that this only affects new resources being put down. Exisiting ones will continue to follow their original numbers until they run out.

mickey saw an idea out forth and saw it was good...
and he saw to it that the idea was made true... and it was good...
and the GEwarriors were glad....
except those trying to build now...

but be patient brothers & sisters there will be space for us to drill for oil and plant cotton and mine for diamonds as Mickey meant for us to do...

and the 36 hour limit, will be lifted too? at very least to 12 hours?
else, i will be able to mantain two or tree of cotton fields, diamonds, and oil.

also, the owners of Cape Town, Atlanta and Riyadh, will get a 5x boost in taxes soon...

no, every mine gets 3 times more then before, and lasts 3 times less.

The fields were full before, now they might even have gaps.

So if any, the bonus cities get less.

And how about some kind of extra tax for those that have lets say more than 10 mines, or total income over 500 dinars, I mean geos.

Actually, it is a good idea.

The more the income, the more the increase in tax ratio...

Please note that this only affects new resources being put down. Exisiting ones will continue to follow their original numbers until they run out.

After the reset consider increasing the output and decreasing the duration further. I fall into the camp of hating JEWEL HUNTING and would much rather earn passive income than active bouncing around the globe.

Consider adding bonds or other forms of income such as stocks.
