I diddn't update yesturday because i forgot. Sorry everyone.

And on that note: I'm putting this on hiatus.

This isn't going to be how I took a permanent hiatus on build a village though since it is because of different reasons so i'm almost certainly going to come back to this at some point.

The Omnicorp Courier has arrived with your mineral scanner. You send a basic clone out to fetch it.

With the fence finished you get the worker manning the manufacture module to produce planks and barrels instead.

The workers who are mining find their first piece of actual ore. It's only Arodine ore but it's better then nothing.
Arodine has a base strength of 1 and a base value of 2.5.

The cabbages in the agriculture module have matured.

Although now that i think about, you had said that the cloning module would have waste products if loaded with raw material. What kind of waste products?

Looks like i completely forgot about that. It's probabley going to be a sludge with all the stuff the cloning module diddn't use in it.

You look around the colony while wearing your new pants. Only cost you 20 yollars, you sure got that forman. (+4xp for conning that sucker)

Thanks to your new 6th sense you will now have horrific visions of things to come.

You sure do wish you could scan for minerals, to bad your mineral scanner hasn't arrived yet.

Looks like that basic clone managed to fit 20 of the cabbages into the barrel, it's a nice round number, almost to round... It's like the barrel was designed to hold 20 cabbages.

You consider growing a science clone but since you don't really have any need for one now you just grow another GoRo worker instead.

You have 4 turns of research into 'Minnion' clones to go.
While you work you consider growing a dwarf-like clone for use in the mines.

The Colonyship has now left.

Also, is it possible for us to refine chemicals?

haven't really thought about it much. It would be a bit of a pain to get into chemistry since it would involve lots of chemicals so the most i am going to do is specific things like "This plant contains medicine".

You purchase the concrete blueprints for 70 yollars.

Colonytech agrees to your new offer of 20 per clone and 370 as an opening payment and you send them the DNA. You soon after receive your 370 yollars. (+25xp for completed deal)

You use the payment to purchase a mineral scanner from Omnicorp for 250 yollars.

What's this? Ardin is ~~evolving~~ going up a level.

Pick one perk to continue:

Big League Bargainer:	5% discount with all large corporations.
Laser optimisation:	You can optimise lasers you own to only use 0.5 charge per shot.
Quick Cloning:	All clones are produced 10% quicker.
Experimentation:	Experimental clones are less likely to fail.
DIY:	you receive a 10% discount on module components (excludes blueprints).
6th Sense:	You will have visions of key events before they occur.

Looks like your delivery has arrived. The forman in charge of the shuttle (who appears to not be a clone) walks up to you and asks where you want the cryopod, then he flicks you 20 yollars.
You ask what he gave you money for.
He tells you to "Buy some godamn pants."

All of the clones wake up and you tell them to go help the other clones. One of the basic clones doesn't have anything to help with so you tell him to put the cabbages into the barrel.

You think about making a number of clones but the one that stands out to you is a 'Minnion' clone.

Quote

>* MINNIONS: this one is probably best described as a list of features and their consequences:
* Dwarfism: smaller size, meaning needing less nutrients and such, and quicker growing to it's full size
* Force grown: grown as fast as possible, at the cost of durability, intelligence, and increasing the risk of defects. going to grow fast enough as it is.
* Cut corners: reducing the cost of growing and the amount of food needed by reducing organs and muscle mass, and any parts of the brain not stimulated by an education.
* Slow metabolism/cold blooded: reduce food needed, at the cost of reaction speed and the ability to withstand cold. They will already not need much food because they are small and they won't be able to sleep in the rain if they can't withstand the cold.
* Natural blood opioids: increased ability to withstand pain, fear, discomfort, and general mistreatment. Stuff like sleeping in the rain, eating the same crappy food all the time, or being treated as expendable cannon fodder. Reduces intelligence and ability to detect and avoid harm.
* Twinned: grow like Siamese twins joined slightly at the head, two in a single tank counting as one clone. The input stream from education is duplicated so bot the clones receive the same one. immediately before decanting they'll split and from then on act just like separate clones.
Summary: Extremely cheap, small, crappy clones that can be produced two at a time.

Although to avoid to many defects you cut down on some of the redundant features. You estimate it will take you 5 turns to work out how to make the first prototype. In the mean time you start growing another worker clone.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Module components are things like Cloning tubes that come seperately, so you can have a cloning warehouse that is purpose built instead of just a warehouse with some modules in it. You can't buy them from anyone you know yet but you'll find where to soon enough.

Please try not to argue everyone. While this is a crazy world where science can do all sorts of magical things Armok does have a point with there being a max on how efficient things can be. You can make muscles and other organs more efficient to a degree but there is going to be a point where they can't get any better.

No to sex slaves. Come to think of it i don't even know if Ardin or the clones even have genders although I think I have refered to them as He's once or twice. If everyone wants them to have genders that's ok, it would actualy make writing it a bit easier since I keep running into spots where I have to use a gender specific word and I either rewrite the sentence so I can use 'they' or I forget and write 'he'. I don't know why I identify them as he's, guess they just look like males to me?

And I threw out the '0.5' turns for each change system and i'll just make them up as I go.

I'll be doing incom from the clone arrangment in a daily payment. So if anyone wants that payment to come at a specific time you should say so now. If no one has any preferences it'll be when the colonyship arrives each day.

Quote from: Orb on January 14, 2012, 09:08:36 pm

I was just curious. Have you pre-planned invasions and attacks Lincoln? For instance, on turn 100, 'Omni Corp' attacks with 6 combat clones armed with normal lasers from the west?

Or are you just winging it, basing attack strength on how strong we are?

I'm just winging it for now. I've got some ideas for big events happening in the future though. I'm going to need some way to give you the lowdown on everything since I never did that. Things like "What is colonytech's deal?" come to mind. Maybe you'll go to the local bar and ask the barman what the latest rumor is, or maybe i'll just answer questions as people ask them.

EDIT: I just remembered to put in medical modules, i just keep forgetting.

DOUBLE EDIT: You'll need some tools if you want to cut up the accomodation modules and stick them together. You could probabley use your laser rifles to cut them but without welding tools you woulnd't be able to stick them back together very well.

After spotting some pink animals in the trees to the north you send the two newbie clones to hunt them.

The Agriculture module should be able to filter out anything that would contaminate the water, unless it's ultra deadly doom water of course so you order a combat clone to tip the barrel in.

You resolve to name your four armed clones "Turisk GoRo's". Having your name in the name will be able to get you some street cred with other colonists. Then you set the cloning module to make two GoRo clones, one worker/manager(This combonation will hereby be called a "Forman") and one combat. You are hoping the combat trained one will be a dual rifle weilding badass.

You tell the worker GoRo to start digging an open mine. While he can use two tools at once he is slightly less efficient then if the two tools were given to seperate clones.

You decide that if you sell the DNA to a major corporation you'll be able to make a killing out of it so you send the following deal to Colonytech:

The genetic material of [EWCV1.0] is not to be altered or changed to produce a new variant, as this would constitute a violation of intellectual property and void the contract, allowing the creator (Ardin Turisk) to sell franchise rights to another entity. In addition, each [EWCV1.0] produced and sold to another entity by the purchaser of the franchise will collect a fee due to the creator (Ardin Turisk). Terms are not negotiable, exact amounts are. Opening offer starts at 400 yollars for the franchise, and 25 yollars per [EWCV1.0] sold.

You shortly after recive a message from Colonytech saying that they might accept if you lower the amount recived per clone to 17 and the opening offer to 350.

You purchase a cryopod for 200 yollars.

Hey look, there is some smoke to the north. You take a rough guess that it is about 3 areas away.

You currently have 105 yollars

Ok, it's come to my attention that stopping people from stealing your interlectual property is a bit of an issue because unless you an stop it you can't sell your custom clones. Since this is frontier and there isn't an established government or anything you can't just go and get the DNA copywrited. And in a day and age where they produce devices that literaly just scan a dead thing and give you a little speal about it, they are probabley going to be able to find out the DNA eventualy no matter how many failsafes and such you use.

So your going to have to have some sort of military force that can go out and stop people. Of course right now you don't have that big of a military so you should try to make deals with mercenary groups or the big companies, guys who have lots of guns.

The best solution I can think of is just giving the DNA to a big company like colonytech, but you make a deal with them so you get a cut of the profit or something simular. That way even though you don't have complete monopoly you are getting a profit from the sales. And a company like Colonytech probabley doesn't want people making copies since they want a monopoly on the market themselves (and unless you are a big company you aren't going to screw with the guys who have the enormous ship in orbit). So effectivley you get some guys to stop everyone copying your ideas and you actualy get paid for it.

Of course that is more or less a suggestion and i probabley shouldn't be suggesting in my own forum game but i thought i'd add my thoughts on this to the table.

On another note there won't be any more updates tonight and there might not be any tommorow due to some stuff happening. But posting doesn't take nearly as long as updating so i'll probabley log on a few times to answer some questions if there are any.

Quote from: Monkeyfacedprickleback on January 10, 2012, 07:06:44 am

If they can't Modify their own clone they shouldn't be able to seperate the false from true.

You do get the impression that they musnt be very smart if they can't add some arms to a clone. Of course genetic modification would have been really hard if the main character wasn't a ~~mad~~ eccentric scientist.

Buy the cryo pod. Have Modified clone and a Combat clones fill the barrel from the river, and take it back to the colony.

The barrel is full of water.

Quote from: RulerOfNothing on January 10, 2012, 05:21:38 am

Also we should recharge our lasers before we get attacked again.

And the lasers are recharged. I forgot to say but now i have the charges in brackets next to them in the equipment screen. It's probabley not the best system though so i might think of something else.

Does the Cryo pod also work as a frige? cos if it does We might want to buy that instead of the fridge.

Well actualy i had "can also be used to store food" in the description. But then I though that cryogenicaly freezing cabbages was a bit of overkill. So yeah i guess you can use it to store food if you want.

EDIT:

Quote from: RulerOfNothing on January 10, 2012, 01:55:56 am

Also, is it possible to find out the value of the various things we can manufacture?

I'm not sure since the value is mostly dependent on the value on the material so that would be hard to do.

Turn 44 - 49

Colony:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

You get the basic clones to replace/build the fence while the workers produce the required fence sections. The combat clone who you sent to get water from the river has returned.

You sell the DNA samples to their respective buyers for 550 yollars.(+5xp for trading)

All of the bodies are dumped into the cloning module except for one. You kept this one as it was much larger then the other lobster wolves and it has much more developed pincers.

The clones are now ready. The two combat clones are ready for duty. You look over the Experimental Clone and find that all of the changes you made were succesful. This clone has a growth on it's back as a side effect of the extra arms. You look over the DNA and work out that you can take a turn off of the growing time, now these clones will grow a turn faster but will require slightly more nutrients to grow (that shouldn't be a problem with nutrients being in abundance).(+15xp for a succesful experiment)

You can now trade with the colony ship.

They want to buy your new worker clone, but knowing them they will probabley scan his DNA and make their own copies. You'll have to find some way to stop people doing that if you wish to keep the monopoly on your clones.

How about I skip until those clones are ready? So that would mean skipping to 4 turns into day. You'll only miss out on one turn of trading with the colony ship. In those turns i'll have them rebuild/finish the fence, recharge the lasers, open the lid on the agriculture module, go get a barrel of water and sell that DNA. You'll also have another batch of cabbages ready if i am counting right so i'll keep growing the cabbages but throw some of the river plants in since someone wanted to grow them for the cloning module.

Sound good to everyone?
