$$$

Price check on a gear-shaped world, with a sun on one edge of the gear(not the flat bit, the jagged), with the gear rotating to allow the sun to heat all of the world.

Just as a FYI, that'd have zero support from me.

By an arc I mean a crescent with fatter ends, essentially. A type of Lune, basically, three dimensional.

Partially because I don't really like the idea of a spiral sun. Just seems strange and without real purpose.

Also, we did check the price of torus planet. Same as a normal planet if you want it to have the same amount of space.

Umm, what do you mean exactly? I was thinking players just say how much essence they'll be putting into specific projects when they decide to do so.

That is one system that will work. If everyone uses a different system, I will be completely confused  .

$$$ANSWER
Growing planet: Variable on size of the planet. ~Maybe 20-40E for each earth size (Creation etc). Once again, the planet will have enough room for everything without needing to grow.
Millennium: 10-30E
Keep in mind that with % growths, things get absurdly big absurdly quickly.
Yes: The answer was it varies with the size.
[Torus planet:20-30E, same as a normal habitable rocky planet, assuming it is relatively the size of Earth. +4-10 for every extra "earth" size. (Etc, etc bonuses)]

Putting all price checks in OP: I don't think that is a good idea. We are two days in and it would already be swamped to the point of being useless for the intended purpose, and that is just between you and Andres  .

EDIT: Kept forgetting to ask this. What do the price ranges like e.g. 2-4 for portal magic system mean? You can spend the minimum of 2 essence for a barebones crappy product, up to the maximum of 4 for a deluxe model with all the bells and whistles? Or does it mean something else?

A price check with a - means that it is random and rolled between those two numbers. 2-4E means that it could be 2,3, or 4 essence depending on how lucky you are with your rolls.

$$$ANSWERS CONT

Gear-shaped world with sun capable of supporting life: 35-55E for Earth Size (Creation ETC)

Arc seems weirder and with even less purpose than spiral sun honestly. Mostly since I can't get myself to properly visualize what it would look like. Request three-dimensional picture.

I'll be honest. It's kind of annoying that the prices are somewhat random. No, very annoying. But ugh, fine. It makes calculating how much essence to give for group creations an absolute pain though, unless everyone has to contribute exactly the same equal amount of essence, meaning we can't specify "contribute 2 essence" or stuff like that, since we don't know what the actual price of the creation will be.

Also, we can't make the fullest use out of our available essence since we can't properly spend it on multiple stuff since the prices are random.

So annoying.

I can't draw well and I don't have a scanner. I really don't see how a short 3-D crescent is stranger than a spiral. When part of the torus is closer to the fat part, it's summer. When it's on the other side, it's winter.

What is with the fixation on seasons a couple of gods seem to have anyway? They don't really add anything significant imo.

[Rolepgeek]

I disagree. Partially because otherwise there's no real way to measure time.

Why is measuring time important?

I mean for mortals. We have a god who does that.

Having civilizations where time is a very fluid concept seem like it'd be pretty interesting imo.

Also, if you want time measurement, a day night cycle would work better than seasons. Would be simple enough to set up. Have some plates orbiting the sun, casting a moving shadow over the torus as they circle around the sun.

I finished a very crappy barebone map. There is no details on it because I figured everyone will choose where they want geological features later. If anyone feels like making a better version, feel free. And since I'm terrible at making maps, that thing probably won't improve much.

Spoiler: Monster (click to show/hide)

Edit: I just thought that making it as a long strip would've been easier. I'll try to redo it that way.

Edit2: And also, I'll be able to make each potion larger, allowing to add stuff like oceans and mountains more easily.

Ohwell. I will be sure to take that into consideration when/if I update the system.

Ah, but day/night means growth won't happen as quickly, whereas seasons mean there can be germination time, growing time, seeding time...

[Rolepgeek]

Also, is that cost for a planet that can grow or just the addition of growth, Stirk?

Why is it necessary for growth to be divided up like that? Have it happen all at once in a riotous explosion of life.

Addition. Like I said, 1% growth is an absurd amount.
