Why not just add the sell clockstop and filler chemical options together? there aren't anymore other sub-options to that now.

[Derekristow]

I think diluting it would be best, filler chemicals could break it and we don't have the money for that anyways.  Also, would diluting it change the duration or the intensity? 
Also, if we sell it to the gangs diluted they would probably tell us where to get supplies, or even give us supplies if we make it for free.  We can just lie about what we need to make it so they give us some surplus to mess around with.

Clockstop Stats:
20x thought speed
Same movement speed
10 minute duration
Each additional dose is 20% less effective

Code: [Select]

[12-0] Eat/drink
[8-0] Program some more Physics Simulator
[6-0] Obtain more chemicals.  Possibly buy them or steal them from dumpsters.  Maybe fake
our way into somewhere we can get chemicals for free?
[5-1] Grow/check on fungi
[4-0] Make a can opener so we can eat
[6-4] Grow some food  (Hydroponics?)  Buy seeds from a garden-center/hardware store.
[5-3] Sell Clockstop to large organization(s),  Make sure to get royalties, not just sell the
formula.  Get a down payment, then receive a percentage of the profits from Clockstop.
 - [4-1] Sell diluted or w/filler chemical versions of Clockstop only.
 - [1-0] Give diluted clockstop to gangs in return for materials.  Establish chemical supply line.
[1-0] Upgrade anklebiter's programming once more with our newfound knowledge!

so I suspect

half Diluted Clockstop:
10X thought
reg physical
5min duration
double dosage decreases by 10%

or we could

9parts water 1part Clockstop solution:
2X thought
reg physical
2min duration
double dosage has no effect on efficiency

I think we should start with the weakest Clockstop as possible, then if they want better, up the price and say you'll "develop" a better solution. In a few months just decrease the water/Clockstop ratio, and up the price again.

Also, I think we have enough passed plans to get an update...

This is good.

win/win they get crap for a few years, and we get rich!

[Aklyon]

win/win they get crap for a few years, and we get rich!

But we eventually run out of dilution to get rid of. Turn them into henchmen?

[Evergod41]

part of the GET RICH! is buy more chemicals/parts/tools/laboratory so that we DONT run out of dilution

[ECrownofFire]

We do want to experiment with filler chemicals later though. I don't like the idea of going with gangs though. In my opinion we want to avoid any gangs. We can't deal with gangs right now. They could just decide they don't like paying and threaten to kill us unless we give it to them for free or something.

As far as a source of money goes, we should just see if we can do something like buy broken laptops and such, fix them, and sell them. Our physics simulator could also be a really good source of money. Can you imagine how much the government or some laboratory would pay for that? Chemistry can come later, it looks like it will be more expensive than anything else at the moment, other than robotics, but that's going to be a huge money drain, and initially not very useful. Chemistry is probably most useful around middle levels, when we can reliably use filler chemicals and such. Right now, programming is probably a great source of money, along with fixing computers or something. For now we can just find stuff in the junkyard and sell it I guess. Scrap metal or something maybe.

Bump, OF SCIENCE!!!

[Pandarsenic]

Wait, did you actually decide what you're doing?

[Karnewarrior]

Find a way to dilute Clockstop, then sell the diluted version.
