No, it'll be the exact same # of product types, however there will be limited "shelf-space", so you'll need to make a decision on which ones you'll stock.

Each store of the same type can have different products placed on different shelves, the price for the same product will still be linked (due to lazy players' request).

Given the total shelf space to be fixed at 8 shelves per store, you will only be able to sell 8 products. Or if you leave 7 shelves empty, the 1 shelf you are selling will sell 8X as fast.

Best change ever.
Worst change ever, this will kill all of my stores. Supermarkets will be as good as farmers markets. What am I supposed to do with all the extra goods? My company already makes more than 8 products.
Make another store to sell the other goods, this isn't exactly rocket science.

There's now an auto-mix function in place, and everyone got all their warehouse products upped to Q30.

I now have a rather large amount of Q30 electricity.

For some reason I was under the impression that animals would require grain or something to feed on. Apparently they are robotic and only need charging with electricity.
Also I'm pretty sure I have the factories I need; Livestock farm (of course), Slaughterhouse (ditto), food processing, hot food factory, well.
Power is pretty cheap so I can just buy that.
I have a few plantations from aforementioned misconception.
Mmm, robo-steak.

I sold my company for ~$8,310,000 after the whole water update. I wanted to take another break from said game anyways to spend some more time playing Capitalism II and The Sims 2. Plus, I figured I'd be nice and let someone else take the lead in the cocoa bean market due to the fact that even before the water update no one gave a shit about quality cocoa beans anyways. All those choobs cared about was the lowest prices.

I can understand the whole lowest prices over quality bit in a game like World of fucking Warcraft, but not in a game where quality is supposed to mean something like Economies of Scale. It kind of pissed me off a little bit that people would undercut my prices with q0 cocoa beans and I wouldn't sell any until I lowered my prices downwards to around $1.99 and lower. This is madness.

Well, be fair. The only reason to buy things is to make better things, and if you're making the best things from those things then the only thing left is to sell them to the robotizens.

And those bastards will buy anything.

I really wish I could MC online. The game... its just not as fun offline. I dont have the lust to build because I know no one will ever see it.
Build, then upload the map then. No big deal, it just takes longer.

Screenshots? I already know this game exists, but I would like some ingame screenshots to see what's going on.

Also, since this game comes in two flavors (single and 4-pack), then a few of the more generous B12ers can share it around if need be.

Question: How does one play this game and make a profit?
Abuse the unholy fuck out of the stock market
Sell base-tier goods (Tier 1 goods with no prerequisiets but electricity & water) on the b2b
Sell mid-tier goods to the robotizens for constant inflow

Wouldn't you be completely fucked if you spawn in a skylands world? Or a single-biome desert or snow world?
And you can't return to the overworld anyway, since linking books link the the plane they're made on.

I got a bunch of stock ten dollars ago, and it keeps GOING.

I'd love to use Mystcraft but I had a bad experience with it yesterday.

Installed it, got a new age and a linking book made. Used the book and teleported through. My game crashed. I reopened Minecraft and I was back at my original spawn away from my house (I had slept in a bed!) and found my way back to my base. I went through the portal again and it worked fine, I think it was a floating island jungle biome. I walked a few steps and my game started going incredibly slowly. So I opened my inventory to go back home.

Shit. I'd forgot a linking book.
How did you forget the linking book? You said you made it, it should have been in your inventory.
