So that is 1m of light hull?

Would you be willing to let me rent out that lab space?For 1000?

Ebbor: that was bad wording on my part. I wanted a new hull type, 10m high like the basic one, but able to survive re-entry. I was thinking of the heavier ones from last game. Any chance I could get that retconned?
Done
Thanks, you're the best.

1) What? I want to trade blueprints.
2) Yes.

I was just wondering what the [1.00] was for.....

It doesn't matter much though

Thx for that light hull!
Medium thruster are a beast when it comes to transport!
829.375 as a maximum, 294 as a minimum!
I could very well sell it to the military, and drop bombs over everything!

Just a note that max is not some kind of safety standard, but just a reminder for me. It's the max upgradeability

Though overclocking rockets is a possibility.

OOC: Sorry for no flavour text today.
You guys are so lucky and im always getting bad rolls :P At least no catastrophe.

TURN:
Research:
Me: Engine, safety + thrust (-1000$)
Lab 1: Research probe (-1000$)

Launch:
Gather dataregistering devices and cameras, launch the TS-1 prototype. Try to learn as much as possible from the launch. If launch goes well inform the press and military, if not keep quiet about it.

Totals: -2000$

That's the amount of research. I'm not trading $500 and [2.00] of a tech only I have for [1.31] of engines, when everyone but me has engines.

Research:
Lab 1 will improve the reliability of the small thruster further, and improve the fuel efficiency if reliability is maxed out (-$1000)
Lab 2 will develop solar cells that can operate in space with the help of the Electronics Expert (-$1000)
Research costs: $2000

Design:
None this year.

Production:
1 Radio transmitter satellite (-$500)
Production costs: $500

Missions:
Launch the improved Arrow I with the satellite to fulfill our promise. Use Lobbyist ability on this launch.

Other:
Announce that SPACE will launch a long-term communications satellite within 4 years.
Trade fuel tank research for fuel power research with Nirur Torir (up to the minimum of [0.90] and wherever Nirur Torir's standard fuel tech is)
Trade results of this years solar cell research for the solar powered comms satellite with Nirur Torir, unless research this year is unsuccessful.

Total costs: $2500

Nirur Torir, are you interested in acquiring my solar cell research (if it is possible to trade for it at this moment)?
Does anyone want to trade for my expanded fuel tanks?

How many meters would the satellite be?
I would be willing to buy one from someone!!

Or I could launch one for you!!

Ebbor: I don't think I got any prestige for fulfilling my satellite launch goal.

Announce that SPACE will launch a long-term communications satellite within 4 years.
Nirur Torir, are you interested in acquiring my solar cell research (if it is possible to trade for it at this moment)?
You might want to specify how long "long-term" is.
I don't need solar cells enough to trade for future research, but I might be willing to help fund it for a copy.

Nirur Torir, do you want to trade for your solar-powered comms satellite (or possibly your enhanced fuel), and if so for how much?

Javier: Sorry, but I think I'll want to keep my lab if my updated prestige brings me to $3000/turn.

Nirur Torir, do you want to trade for your solar-powered comms satellite (or possibly your enhanced fuel), and if so for how much?
Would you be willing to trade solar cell for solar satellite research on a per-turn amount?
I think I'll want better fuel storage. My improved fuel for your improved fuel storage, at equal values after this turn's research? ([0.55] for [0.55] if my lab explodes again, [0.90] for [0.90] if things go well for me)

Has the income been updating properly?
The first income increase should have raised my income to 1500
Then my prestige should've boosted it to 1900
Then the last global increase should've increased it to 2850

If I did the math correctly.....

The global prosperity events are one-time bonuses, based on our income.

My problem is I didn't seem to get any prestige for completing my goal of a radio transmitter in space.

This seems acceptable. What exactly do you mean by trading on a per-turn amount?
