Speaking of which, adwarf, are you going to fix the trade fleet numbers for your turn so they work out correctly?

They are correct, I'm just not using my own ships to transport the last bits of food.

ahh.

I don't see why you would put those in the thread, but okay.

[Ardas]

All the issues have been corrected already with the GM. And please do not worry about my turns, Ghaz tells me everything if there is a problem, he corrects and makes adjustments with me while doing his turns.

[adwarf]

Because its general information? I mean moving food in my own system between my own planets isn't super top secret information and you'll find out about it next turn. Plus you wouldn't stop telling me it was wrong so I had to resort to saying it was them to keep you from reposting the same thing that I'd clearly seen and which I will point out the GM did not comment on.

And please do not worry about my turns, Ghaz tells me everything if there is a problem, he corrects and makes adjustments with me while doing his turns.

And this.

Question:

Can you use your own trade goods to produce colony ships?

Like use the excess trade goods you inevitably produce while constructing things to build them and such? And if so, can it be done separately from the planet's production for that turn?

I'm sorry...

[Ghazkull]

indeed, you can use your own trade goods for that. basically if you have stocked ten trade goods you can use them instead of your production.

On another note:

This sounds awfully much like i am biased. Just to clarify i just pointed out to him things which look weird to me or don't work at all(for example him using his own trade goods on himself). I will btw contact any player who gives orders which don't make sense or don't work in order to prevent major catastrophe due to little oversights on the players side.

But yeah no need to apologize, but usually i will notice if there is something odd or wrong about a players post and inform him and work out what he or she can do instead.

[Sheb]

Mmmmh, PTW.

[4maskwolf]

Hang on, can trade goods ALWAYS be used instead of production, or only under certain circumstances?

[Ghazkull]

only certain circumstances

[4maskwolf]

Thank you.

Out of curiosity, when can we expect the next update?  Monday?

If I transported a full unit of somebodies population to a blank planet could they colonize it? I just realized colony ships are only really to transport enough people to do the job. I could transport the entire population of a planet on my ships if provided with the food.

[Ghazkull]

no that would be impossible. THe Food and trade goods/ production invested are used for terraforming.

[PewdsRocks]

Darn, I had an idea to make some money, couldn't I just transport that food and production as well? It'd work exactly the same as a colony ship other then it could be done without spending a turn to build it.

Ahh well. What about for myself? If I saved up the required trade goods and food then dropped off some of my population could they do it? My ships are basically huge colony ships.

[4maskwolf]

no that would be impossible. THe Food and trade goods/ production invested are used for terraforming.

I'm assuming that the population that goes into colony ship production is deployed on the planet afterwards?

[Ghazkull]

yes maskwolf.

Also nope. You wanted the Worldships now you stay with them. No Colonies for you.
