So, because I picked "futile" difficulty, I start with $49.  Not enough to do anything.

Someone give me a job.  You'll get an employee who knows the game.  (At least, the old version of it.)  Put me in charge of an empty company with $100k in cash, and I'll make it worth millions.

[Lukewarm]

That could be fun. Send "lukewarm" a mail and we'll get you set up, you crazy masochist.

Great that it was resurrected! Thanks BetterMember.

Wow, with current level of starting economy, supermarkets demand and the fact that everyone gets stuff lower in production chains, it's really hard to sell anything in them. Gas stations selling only filtered water is never going to cover it's own maintenance cost, it wouldn't even at 100% efficiency and Q50. And I'm not even starting to talk about production costs. Good that people are still trying to make it work and water/energy gets sold at B2B.

edit: If you are not planning any payments, it would be better for the game to make your repo public. There is always some PR worth merging.

Whoa! Solar panels  costs a hundred dollars for a unit of electricity!
Those aren't profit margins!
Wew lad!

WoW!!!  Never buying any of those!

LoL

A variable I messed up when fixing qualities.  Should be corrected soon.

Was it ? I don't think i noticed the problem with my 10mē solar panel factory, all my electricity production costed 0.05 dollar per unit.

A trello or something like that would be good to see the roadmap you are planning, and maybe giving you some idea . Well if you want to make your roadmap public, obviously.

Can you fix the restart so it follow the new game start you setup ? I think that mostly easy difficulty is viable now, and i kinda regret going with intermediary.

I would love to, but it costs 200k to get an employee (more than most micro-factories)

Alright, I've started Sweet Apple Acres once again.  Easy start, cause of course I need to start mah farm.

Apparently there is none of that electricity/water on the market.  I'll be looking to hire once I've got everything moving along.

Apparently there is none of that electricity/water on the market.

Theres been a bit of both for sale on the market both today earlier and yesterday, so some people are selling some but obviously no significant amounts to be able to rely on right now. ~300k power I saw. Water cant remember, wasnt much, a few k if I recall.

[Lukewarm]

I'm focusing on producing power, there are a few people putting water out. I would have had more power out earlier, but there were some internet issues here so I wasn't able to do the thing I actually planned to do.
I've got a bit of competition for the electricity market, but I think they're diversifying more then I am. I live and die by the power lines.
Also, Zaz, I can't transfer money to my personal account, so you're on your own-I can't start a new corp. Reset and you'll be put on an easier difficulty, or wait until money transferring is fixed and I or someone else can pick you up and profit off of you.

[Zangi]

Hmm... crud....  I need to sell a whole lot of apples to break even on the wages alone.

Yes, in the process of resurrecting...  Still much work to be done.  The conversations here and those of you contacting me about ideas is a lot of help.

No financials for the game planned yet, just a little side project that I decided to take on.

Remember ZaZ, you can earn $38,000 per week simply by clicking on Support EoS at the bottom of the gametime screen.  By the end of the week, take a loan and Maybe get enough for a startup. 

Take your time and Plan wisely with your investments.

(spoiler)  Rags to Riches badge winners will receive rewards later.  If all the coding goes right.  Much later though, I do have plans for it.

Good luck.

Seing that you have the code and the visuals, wouldn't it be easier to just migrate everything to a newer framework like Symfony ? I can only guess how tedious it must be to fix or add feature in an old bad written code (quoting the original author).

By the way, marketing power doesn't seem to work. The button to validate the spending doesn't do anything.

Some of the end-products don't have a storefront to sell them. Like everything in a bakery for example (side note: why does a supermarket stock orange concentrate powder but doesn't carry salt or sugar? )

I couldn't make an account on this. The form seemed bugged and wouldn't send.

I like tedious. LoL.  There are some things that PHP applications used to manipulate PHP code that wouldn't write it the way I would.
