[Knight Otu]

I think we're already cultivating sprouts, aren't we?

Since we are exiled we need to be on our best behavior for a while. If something happens to the colony ship in our region, who'll be the prime suspect? We. They know we're here, and that, if we aren't, that we can't be very far. And faking our death... who's going to be fooled by that? Destroying and plundering the colony ship is bound to get a reaction that all the resources of the ship won't help against.

What we need is the mining module. Or the now cheaper cloning upgrades. With those we might be able to create some mind-control spores to get some "discounts" or "gifts" that we then can use to get out of this general region to avoid being found again when the manipulations become apparent... and then we can show those fools. Let's be boring for a bit so we can be eccentric later.

[Evil Lincoln]

Because a lot of things will happen in this next update ii'm going to try and make sure everyone is happy with how it goes.

The revised list is:

• Finish off fence.
• Gather cabbages.
• Teach basic clone how to shoot.
• When the workers wake up create some hard sheets from wood. (Those will probabley be worth something in trading since its processed material)
• When daybreak comes send combat clones on a scavenging mission to the river to the west.(leaving the basic clone with the laser rifle to wake you up if anything goes wrong.)

A while ago exploring the river was discussed so I thought i'd bundle it in with scavanging (Which i swear was suggested but can't seem to find....)

Since most of the other ideas involve faking deaths, bringing down the system and murder which would probabley take place after you wake up I diddn't include them.

[kaian-a-coel]

Man if there was actual money to win, I'd bet we'll find a freaking mess when waking up.

[Tiruin]

Hmm...Could we, perhaps create a simple plumpet wood watchtower? Or do we need blueprints for that under 'defense' in general?

We seem pretty safe with three clone guards, but we must make up for the loss in resources in the morn.

This picture is large and may require a small amount scrolling to view unless you have a large monitor.

When you wake you are greeted by a basic clone who informs you on what happened while you slept.

Two crops of cabbages were harvested, Two sheets of plumpet wood were made and the combat clones left to explore the river to the west.

There was some animal movement during the night. Two groups of Bantha Cows passed by heading west, the first group numbered at eight while the second consisted of six individuals. A Lobster wolf was also spotted skulking in the trees but it retreated when approached.

The clones also ate three cabbages to sait their hunger.

The Colony ship will come back into communications range in 1 turns.

Night will come in 8 turns.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

A quiet night since if you got attacked or something it would take days for you to recover with your current financial situtation.

Hmm...Could we, perhaps create a simple plumpet wood watchtower? Or do we need blueprints for that under 'defense' in general?

You'll probabley be able to do that with what you have at the moment. But without The blueprints for planks or pylons and with no tools to make them from the wood itself you'll have to use sheets and fence sections which wouldn't hold up as well. This would be another story if you tried to do that with concrete or metal however since you'd need the proper tools.

On the note of metals i'll probabley go with the system from build a village for this as well. So there will be tiers of metal each with a colour.

Red metal -> Orange metal -> Yellow metal -> Green metal -> Blue metal -> Violet metal

To get a coloured metal you'll need both some generic grey ore and a coloured ore/crystal. There might be things like latice red metal which is as good as yellow metal but requires either another ingridient or has to be processed for longer but i'm still thinking that over.

This update originaly had a lot more text but I accidentaly hit refresh and had to redo it.

[Tiruin]

We would probably need adequate supplies to create a working economy, no more dealing with rudimentary ideals.

Prepare for trade if ever, with the Colony Ship.

We need to make a move into the present century.

[Monkeyfacedprickleback]

Can we cook stuff? Also Build a smoke teepee to dry out that meat in before it goes bad. Smoke dried meat may also sell well.

[kaian-a-coel]

I say prepare for trading. We could sell most of the cabbage and meat, plus the hard sheets. In exchange, we'll need more blueprints and maybe a module. MINING module. Yeah, forget the blueprints, grab this mining module FIRST.

[RulerOfNothing]

Actually, while I too believe we should try to trade with the colony ship, would it be possible (however time-consuming) to make the advanced technologies ourselves?

[Criptfeind]

Actually, while I too believe we should try to trade with the colony ship, would it be possible (however time-consuming) to make the advanced technologies ourselves?

Most likely not without blue prints and a higher quality manifactory. Otherwise we would basically have to re invent it.

I also believe we should buy some clothing for dem clones.

[Tiruin]

How much yollars do we have left anyway? Clothings costs 70 for 10.

[Evilsx]

I say prepare for trading. We could sell most of the cabbage and meat, plus the hard sheets. In exchange, we'll need more blueprints and maybe a module. MINING module. Yeah, forget the blueprints, grab this mining module FIRST.

This is a great idea, also get our scientist a TOP HAT!

Although you have never smoked any kind of meat before you do understand the principal and decide to give it a go.

The Colony ship has come into communications range and you have received a message!
Electronic message broadcast from the Vessel C.C.S Hans at 2TD 3/4/140nm

Attention all Colonies on the planet Epsilon III.

The colony ship C.C.S Hans will be in orbit and open for trading until 7TD on the day of this communication. Both the purchasing and selling of goods will be available in this time. The ship will also act as a proxy for intercolony trading for a small fee of 100 yollars per transaction which is split between the two colonies involved unless otherwise stated. Attached is the full catalouge of goods that can be purchased.

Best wishes from Colonytech: Creating new beginings since year 11
You currently have 30 yollars

I hope there is enough things there to keep everyone happy and i took the prices on some of the basic modules down because demand for them would have dropped. That smoked meat will be aready next turn and maybe those combat clones might will return with something valuble if your lucky (As a bit of a sorry for messing up the first order). More orders from colonies might come up in updates and some might disapear due to being taken so don't be to suprised if some of those are gone next turn. If someone wants an item added to the list of things you can buy i'll consider putting it in since it's already pretty big and i don't think anything else could hurt.

[kaian-a-coel]

Sell all wooden sheets for money, then discuss the price of:

- one RAW meat piece (you didn't smoked) with Gregs Teeth and Claws
- one piece of every plant you know (cabbage, vines, wood and mushrooms) with Agricorp Colony Beta
- 15 cabbages and 10 meat with Havensafe

assuming discussing is free.

Our goal is to reach 900 yollars and BUY THAT MINING MODULE.

[Tiruin]

{Nice way of organizing it!}

Ok, so we need to do a lot of thinking for the future here.

At about 30, we need to sell enough to earn 900 for the BASIC mining module and maybe the EDUCATION ATTACHMENT since we can easily grow clones from here.

We need more specialized clones, the sell price for normal ones are low and the production is slow so I'm leaving this to better minds.

We do not buy clone uniforms as of now.

Sell 18 cabbages (54+) and 10 meat (50), include all sheets (60). All this amounts to 194 with the 30 added in.

...

We really need to get to work for that Mining Mod. HUNT and LOG!, FORAGE AND GATHER! Put all clones to use, no need defending in the day as of now.

Oh, and as we have a lot of nutrients, begin creating clones from those.


We may also want to purchase blueprints first, they may help in our economy as we're only starting.
Can we specialize clones in the vat or do we need the education module for that?



Edit: Beat me to it kaian!  Going with yours.
