Quest system pre-alpha is now live!

How it works (for now):
- Every tick you are given up to 2 quests (will fill up if space available)
- Only 2 quest types are available
- Local trader: request and reward resources are pulled from what is available in your country
- Global trader: request and reward resources are pulled from the whole world.

More quest types and smarter reward and request will come in the future.
Many thanks to the anon that made the art.

>inb4 this quest is dumb, theres no way I can get the resources
They're default to be generally a net-positive for you, but rng is rng, even with weights. Either Decline it, or post your trade code here and see if you can trade someone for the stuff you need.

>>46517622
Resources requested are the ones given to the player and proposed are the ones given to the AI? The wording makes it a bit ambiguous who is requesting/proposing. Submenu looks great, nice job anon.

>>46552991
The thread said once pikamee is gone they will go to /lig/ if i remember right

>>46563104
Voms thread still exists.

I want to create a list of goods for the bakery in /who/. Then we can talk about prices. The good news is that now /nasa/'s ending is going to be retconned to where we're still here then that means we do have some trading between /who/ and /nasa/ again. Also /nasa/ would be able to cover most of the cost again.

Because of Grand Directive we will be unable to import electronic equipment. That said hand-cranked gear is A-OK. Also due to no refrigeration on trade routes all menu items have to be made on site.

List of imports ingredients from /nasa/ are:

-Wheat from the greenhouses. (Not star wheat since that's only grown at home for funeral rites.) Wheat can be processed at the mills into whole-grain, white, and cake flours. Wheat will mostly be used for cake flour.
-Sugar beet sugar. The processed sugar can never spoil. Perfect for trade.
-/nasa/ Space Yeast. Cold resistant yeast will be perfect to culture in the mountains. You can't freeze it, but you can preserve it in cool storage.
-Salt. The arctic wetlands is perfect for salt deposits. We'd be mining and selling salt.
-Coal. Mostly to trade to hoomans for minerals. Not really useful for cooking due to natural toxins. But coal is essential for melting metal for appliances.
-Ice. We're north enough to have ice wells to carve from. If not then we can build ice wells that freeze in the winter.

1/2

>>46564070
Some more imports continued:
-Baking powder and baking soda canned and preserved.
-Artificial vanilla extract. Literally the same chemicals as real vanilla extract.
-Margarine made from seed oil.

Some breads we can make:

Local ingredients.
-Barley bread. Great with beer. Not so much eating on its own.
-Rye bread. We'll have two variants: Light Rye (Jewish) for sandwiches. And Heavy Rye (Russian) the perfect soup bread.
-Marbled Barley and Rye bread. A mix of rye and barley bread doughs kneaded together to create a white and brown bread.
-Barley tea.
-Snowberry tarts made with a barley and wheat crust.
-Potato bread. Bread made with potatoes.


Some /nasa/ specialties.
-White bread buns. Great for burgers.
-Brioche
-Croissants
-Shortbread Biscuits (or cookies for you mutt burgers)
-American Butter Biscuits
-Turnover Apple Pie.
-Snowberry Cobbler.
-Vanilla ice-cream and ice-cream sandwiches.

Not listing things with chocolate yet because I don't know if we're importing from /nasa/'s green house or not. Also saplings got first dibs on chocomint sammies.

2/2

>>46564070
>>46564609
That sounds so fucking good, I wanna go there now. Especially for a snowberry cobbler.

>>46565023
I don't want the menu to be too big. This is a list of what we can make. Even though we have three ovens that can hold 9 loaves of bread it still takes time to make bread. And I'm not talking about raising time. For the cobbler we'd have to prepare the filling by fermenting the berries in sugar for a bit. Then simmer the filling. Then prepare the crust. Then cook in a Dutch oven either over a campfire or bake in our oven for an hour and a half to two hours.

Bread actually doesn't take that long to cook. And it can sit on the shelf. Same with cookies. Pies and cobbler will take a while. So pies in bulk will have to be ordered in advance. Anything that uses sugar will be more expensive than things that don't.

I also forgot to mention the possibility of maple-based sweets. However I don't think maple trees were confirmed yet.

Because its not even been 3days since pikamees last stream, let them grief

>>46567051
Why are you eager on this?

>>46565490
That makes sense, the best restaurants tend to have a small menu of dishes they do amazingly instead of a huge menu of mediocre meals.

>>46567621
i am not? i simply answered the question

>>46568321
Well we are a bakery. So many of our products will be on the shelf. That said we can have an outside dining area and some items made to order. We will have stoves in the kitchen and and traditional brick ovens outside in the back. I'm hoping once we get enough resources to expand a pizza garden since we're on the outskirts of town we can add pizza to the menu. But that's for later. Now I just need a confirmation of pricing.

>>46566170
Same. So hey, wanna waste it together?

>>46571762
that's a good pickup line

>>46571903
What can I say I'm a natural

>>46571462
How do you prepare for a bad harvest or other natural disasters.

>>46573029
In ideal conditions, you can keep grain for years.

>>46573029
This question again? If there's a bad harvest then the entire region suffers. Not just us. Like what they say here >>46573209 farmers keep stockpiles of dry grains for years. If you're talking about /nasa/ wheat then we have taken every preventative action to prevent bad harvests. And when they do happen then /nasa/ has stockpiles of dry grains and preserved rations that last for a decade.

The families moving to /who/ know the risk. We've briefed them on the risks of living outside of /nasa/. And they still chose to move. I expect them to prepare as much at they can.

Fuck you.

>>46498722
Ok, probably no big updates on the site until this weekend, there's a lot of code clean-up that needs to happen since I trashed a bunch of stuff to rush out the Quest feature.

In the meantime though there's gonna be a lot of number tweaking. Happiness will probably get bumped world-wide again after I redo the algorithm. It's better than it was, but still kind of tough, and it needs to take into consideration that Quests give resources now.

The next update I want to push is gonna be upgrades for your governances. Something like purchasing buildings, or establishing guilds. Ideas I had along those routes:
- Trader's Guild: More/Better trade offers from Quests
- Market Square: Sell 200 of any X for 100 of any Y resource
- Survey Expedition: Unlock a new resource node

Other ideas are welcome, just keep in mind were at the "Village" level right now so nothing like "Can I make my own currency and start a bank so I can charge interest on loans".

As always, thanks for your participation and feedback.

>>46576638
Some upgrade ideas:
>Upgrade a node one level (maximum 1, I would imagine, so that everything isn't eventually just max level nodes)
>Better warehouses: reduce resource attrition rate
>Artisan Guild: Higher happiness boost from luxuries
Also, I think you mentioned the attrition rate is a percentage based on the quantity of resources? I think that works, but I'm curious if there's a reason to go for that instead of a flat attrition quantity. a percentage based attrition rate disincentivizes stockpiling resources, which isn't a bad or good thing, but it does affect the gameplay loop.

Yeah, thats kinda what I was going for

>>46577325
Thanks again for your data anon. I'm thinking instead of messing with the hapiiness algorithm again, I'm going to try increasing the amount of mined resources and see what that does to the numbers, because the graphs seem right, the struggle just seems to be getting up to the right numbers when you start with 0 of everything.

>>46586813
A man without a name,
Whispers wishes to the wind,
Of war and bloodshed,
In an ancient land begin.

His voice echoes through the night,
As he calls upon the dark,
With every uttered syllable,
He leaves a chilling mark.

His eyes are black as coal,
And his face, a twisted mask,
No one knows his true intent,
Or the horrors that he'll unmask.

He speaks with such conviction,
As he calls for battle's cry,
And though no one knows his name,
They all fear that he can't die.

For he's the harbinger of death,
The bringer of pain and fear,
A man without a soul or heart,
A monster to all who hear.

So if you hear his whispers,
In the stillness of the night,
Pray that he stays hidden,
And doesn't come into sight.

For if his wish for war comes true,
And he is allowed to lead the fray,
The ancient land will tremble,
And darkness will hold sway.

>>46571462
In the woods there lies a hidden place
Where trees are tall and sunlight scarce
A haven for the sweet tooth race
Where smells of fresh bread fill the air

A bakery that's tucked away
A place where magic seems to play
Where pies and cakes and muffins stay
And pizza cooked in stone ovens there

The scent of cinnamon, so strong
Aroma of chocolate all day long
Pizzas topped with cheese so young
And bread that's baked with utmost care

The baker's hands are quick and light
A master of the craft in sight
His creations, a wonderful sight
A delight for all who venture there

In the woods, this bakery stands
A treasure for all dessert fans
A place where magic lends its hands
And taste buds are never in despair

A man sits alone, pen in his hand,
He scribbles and scratches across the blank land,
Words pour from his mind, onto the page,
His fingers move swiftly, never pausing to gauge.

For this man, you see, has a curse to bear,
A fate that he can't escape or share,
If he stops writing, he'll fade away,
Lost to the world, no longer to play.

So he writes day and night, with all his might,
To keep himself alive, to stay in sight,
He writes of love, of hope, of pain,
And sometimes of things that drive him insane.

The words flow freely, a constant stream,
And sometimes they feel like a haunting dream,
But he can't stop, he must go on,
Or he'll disappear with the coming dawn.

So the man keeps writing, without rest,
His words the only thing that he can attest,
To his existence, his being, his soul,
For without them, he'd be a mere black hole.

And though his curse may seem quite cruel,
He's learned to live with it, to make his own rule,
For as long as he can keep writing, he'll stay,
A man with words, who'll never fade away.

Archive under /nasfaqg/
Work in progress, but I want to have it archived.
Most of the products are done in a list-like fashion featuring some of the most prominent products of each sector, either in quality or quantity (but not all of them due to the task of listing every possible product being unfeasible).
The purpose of the list-style format is mostly to be a source of inspiration for detailing possible corporations further down the line, as well as to fill in the market with some detail for the sense of depth.

https://rentry.org/Yorumi-Jujutsu-GMK

place under companies and guilds, I am currently working on various corporations and industrial concerns in the Empire. This corporation is a Magic industrial concern that I ultimately am puzzled on what it would actually make because:

>1. Yorumi is an Idol Magician. She is likely one of the very few chuubas whose lore is magic based in a direct sense. It can be taken about anywhere.
>2. I don't quite understand what Chuubanite products would entail for her given that. My first thought is that one of the things this company can do is refine what I am calling for lack of a better term "Nijisanjite", being all chuubanite products by Nijisanji livers from raw materials into usable products or into materials that will be used in the final manufacturing process. I also have an idea that I am calling "Magical Tooling and Lubrication" to mean that Yorumite can be used to make different types of chuubanite from nijijp work together. I don't know what that means entirely or if it is possible.
>3. There is also the possibility that the Magician part can be interpreted similar to Gem Magic or something similar, but im not sure if that is a good idea to do given that I feel it is disrespectful to OGsuner and would be seen as someone just trying to take away the last thing /risu/ has.

I hope over time I can figure out what I am doing with it, but I really need some help here so please help if you want to.

Going to shill Yorumi, she's great!!!

Good afternoon. So I want to ask how viable are salt mines in /nasa/ since we're an arctic wetland.

>>46632264
/nasa/ is a schizo wasteland now. In the past, you probably could but you had only a few months on vitubia and a limited population so how much you mined or if you did is up to you.

>>46632264
Most salt mines are located in warm climates so likely few if not any.

>>46632490
I think we can still make mining colonies around the landing site. We just can't have huge scale operations like strip mines I think.

>>46632740
Then I'll have to remove salt from trade goods to /who/ then. I was thinking maybe there'd be a chance the arctic wetland could have a salt deposite or a salt water lake we can desalinate to extract salt from. Thinking about it now the wetlands would flood during summer washing the salt away. I guess there can be ice trade. Assuming we can get transport running in late winter/early spring.

iirc we settled on a 1:1 irl day to in-universe day, so the initial crash would be the 23rd of August, Sana's debut. As for the year, since Tri-fleet gets to us in 1123(I think) that would make the starting point August 23rd, 1122VTE.

LF Salt 100,

>>46643048
OG has tri fleet in 1128 i think

BY MY POWER I DEMAND YOU LIVE

With how long things take to build and the speed of information. My estimates of the bakery opening will be either the fall or winter of 1123. Fall most likely as that would be the ideal time to stock up on summertime harvests. That said new imports from /nasa/ won't arrive until mid spring or early summer. So whatever stock of wheat and sugar we have that survives the journey is what we have. At least pumpkin pie will be seasonal.

Happiness was bumped significantly for everyone to test out the new algorithm. I dont think anyone should be sliding back into oblivion going forward unless theres some big mismanagement... I hope...

Knarf, Schizo Shaman of the forbidden Texts, one day he heard the dark whispers that seemed outer worldly, he could not understand what they were saying, but he felt like they knew things even he was not privy to. Beckoned by the sweet promise of the unknown, he found himself erecting a grand altar towards a place outside of time and space.

You're confusing the tri-fleet with the risuner exploring other places and their first trip to /who/.

I think the logic is that a larger portion of your workforce should be dedicated to necessities. In real life, you have 90 peasants for every ambergris gatherer, for example.

>>46498722
weren't trades meant to reset with each tick, because i reached limit due to a bunch of old ones

>>46681482

Please o mighty devanon, grant the wish of this poor mortal in our hour of need!

Automate gameplay ticks onegai

>>46498722
Yo, what is the full list of resources in the game currently?

>>46498722
when can i jerk off to squirrels in game

>>46498722
devanon do you get a reduction in happiness when a resource hits 0? because that makes trading a bit bad if you get a hit each time a traded resource goes to 0 or you trade all of one resource away

>>46498722
Devanon, the buff did nothing. Happiness is gone.

>>46705014
This nigga chronically depressed.

devanon love btw. thanks for doing this for a bunch of autists

>>46705603
This is a real skill issue.

>>46701192
I've actually been working on this even at work, but debugging cron jobs is a pain and a half when they don't go off. Its top of the todo list right now though, I promise.

>>46703262
Put points in Entertainment and write the RP yourself

>>46704355
If a specific resource hits 0, no nothing happens. If ALL your Necessities in store hit 0, thats gonna be an issue.

>>46705014
My brother in chuuba, theres been like 3 ticks since the buff, how could you have lost it all?

>>46705194
Thanks anon. Its been pretty fun for me too, I'm just glad yall are dealing with all the bumps in the very rough road so far with relatively good spirits

>>46706076
>Its top of the todo list right now though, I promise.
Love you, devanon!

>>46706076
Devanon love

>>46706076
i know we kidn fo asked for many of them ourselves, but seeing as the current playerbase is still pretty small, could we maybe cut down on resource diversity a bit again ebcause it is hard to get even across someone that has a good chunk of the resources

>>46706786
I think the extra nodes upgrades might naturally fix that.

Are there black people in vitubia?

>>46707498
Nasa

>>46706076
devanon when will trades reset again? because its not with ticks atm and we cannot trade anymore really

>>46706786
So thats actually a bit more of a lift, but what Im gonna do is change the max Quests from 2 to 6, and hopefully that will start giving people more options to diversify with.

>>46708813
It's "per-tick" in that each tick checks for any trades older than 1 day. This last tick deleted a crap load of trades so you should be good again.

>>46709549
no, my trades are still all filled out by old trades

>>46709549
happiness went down again despite having all these resources, how much does one need for happiness to grow?

>>46709549
>Quests from 2 to 6
That actually seems like the best way to go about it.

>>46709878
You're right, I added the line for the query, wrote it to the log saying I was deleting it, but never wrote the actual delete line. My bad. Manually removed old trades. Auto-remove fixed for next tick.

>>46710077
Damn anon, you didnt buy the Village upgrade did you? Anyway, ok, I tweaked the algorithm AGAIN. We'll see how it goes.

>>46710091
Hope so.

Btw, if I do get this cron shit finally running (gods please), how often do you all think a world tick should go by? I was thinking ever 6 hours.

>>46713459
Ye, 6 hours seems good

WOOPS, several ticks ran automatically, sorry folks

>>46711945
no i did not buy the upgrade yet, and at the rate that stuff degrades i don't think i will anytime soon

>>46498722

>>46711945
Aight, so since it's not really clear ingame and I might have missed it in the thread, what exactly does upgrading to a village do?

>>46717296 me
Wait no I'm just retarded, the details button is right there

OK. Finally got the automated tick working (I hope. Again, apologies for those runaway ticks, I accidentally set it to "Every minute on the 6th hour" instead of "Every 6th hour").
World ticks now happen once every 6 hours. More specifically, every 6th hour, so 0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800. The server is running on UTC-0 time so if you care to do your stock trades as the bell rings, do the math for your own timezones.

How's everyone's projects going tonight?

>>46721081
have some ideas but mentality still kind of makes it a bitch to actually get anythingn down

>>46721081
Work, Easter and shizoposting is going to delay my writing until next week, but I'm motivated. Also Blessed Easter everyone, it's Good Friday tomorrow.

>>46721081
The website is now fully automated, so at least if I get hit by a bus at some point /vtwbg/ will always have that silly little game ticking away until Jeff Bezos nukes the Amazon servers from space

we got some work goinng for a representation of /vtwbg/ for the lord of the board tournament

currently trying to get a WARanon going but one issue currently is that the limitations of 2k22 is preventing kino armor all over. (ignore the actual person, its jsut a stnnad in for now)

if you got any feedback feel free to share

>>46727088 (me)
a full body shot of the armor so far tho it seems we gotta say bye to lower body armor inf avor of the helmet

>>46727088
Whats the Lord of the board tournament?

>>46729234
its a wrestling tournament from the /hfz/ guys where each thread sents in a rep and then they duke it out. it came up shortly after divegrass and back then concens seemed to be that WARanon would be the best rep for /vtwbg/ so i got together with a guy from there to see what we can cook up

here is 2 potential armguards, which one do you like better? also a darker color scheme which i thinnk fits a bit better, but compare it to above and consider what you like best

>>46730031 (me)
also some choices for boots, i personally liek the left ones

current look

>>46732266
Honestly kino and better than I thought you could do on that game, nice. I >>46730448
think I like that left (my left) armguard better.

>>46732266
In the ring he stands,
Clad in garb of old,
With a fierce determination,
And a love for battles bold.

His muscles taut and strong,
His eyes fixed on the fray,
He's a gladiator born anew,
Ready to fight another day.

Though the coliseum's gone,
His spirit still remains,
As he steps into the ring,
To the roar of the crowd's refrains.

He's a warrior of the modern age,
A wrestler of great renown,
But his heart still beats for battles won,
And the clash of steel and sound.

With a roar he charges forth,
His opponents to engage,
For in the heat of battle,
He finds his truest rage.

No foe can stand before him,
No obstacle can block his way,
For he is a gladiator born anew,
And he will fight another day.

>>46733761
The one that isn't spiky?

>>46737664
The one that is spiky and looks more shiny. Bit less accurate, but it fits better with the rest.

How's your nation's alcohol: Beer, wine, or spirits?

>>46741683
Spirits! Liqueurs are nice too I guess

>>46742249
Bread dogs know how to brew beer and ale.

>>46741683
Wine, that's the big one culturally. Though rice-based alcohols would be actually more common in practice in Moriji.
>>46742249
Vnugget? I wanted to ask you something about Moleyms

>>46742664
I think it’s more that /vnug/’s environment limits grain growth so there aren’t enough of them to make a lot of beer

>>46743068
Hello! Ask away!

>>46743209
As long as you can ferment sugar from fruit or syrup you can make spirits.

>>46743209
So, say you had a Moleym mercenary group, would they be more likely to use weapon systems bought from some third party, or would they have the industry to build their own stuff? If they have their own ships/mecha, what do they look/what kind of aesthetic? Sleek, functional, blocky, glowy bits?

MyBRVzV2Ym5sdGIzVnpUbTlPWVcxbA==
Need 83 potatoes, willing to trade commodities & other necessities

>>46743068
Boner Kong loves drinking hot sake in the hotsprings I think.

>>46743380
/vnug/ has a lot of berries (compared with other foodstuff) so they should be useful. I guess we might be able to make some mead too since we have winterized bees. I wonder if bitterbug juice can be used for brewing…

>>46743452
It depends on their size but I think some of the larger/more isolated ones will have some industrial capacity to repair old gears and make new gears. I haven’t thought about the aesthetics yet but I imagine they’ll have to be decently functional given the environment of both their homeworld and in outer space. Maybe different groups will have different aesthetics? Glowy bits do seem to be a common feature of many of V&U girls’ design… Mecha might also have tail since they’re based on how Belyms look like. It might also mean the mecha will be somewhat sleek. Liora and Serafi’s design leans towards white and blue but I don’t know if that means Moleym aesthetics will go full Apple

>>46743594
This is factual. Boner Kongs ferment a rudimentary sake by cooking rice in the hot springs and fermenting it in pouches made with banana leaves.
>>46743718
Oh, tailed mechs, those are cool, I love that golden one from Xenoblade, Yaldabaoth. Okay, then I guess it would be a function of a bunch of things including which Belym faith is predominant in the group and how established they are. In terms of organization, do you think they'd be more likely to closely integrate into their contractor's military forces, or maintain a degree of independence in their operations?
I wrote a small greentext about a hologlobal civil war where one of the sides hired Moleym mercs, I think I'd like to flesh out that conflict more.

>>46744095
Given their origin I would say they generally prefers to act independently and that would be a good way to use them too since they’re meant to be fairly self-sufficient. Having some degree of plausible deniability can be useful too in case the Moleyms run amok Individuals might decide to join the contractor’s military force if they happen to prefer what they offer but that would likely be on an individual basis (or from other Belym individuals not from Moleym groups)

They’re all from US and are employed so I guess that makes sense very relatable

can we just give you access to the archive so you can do this yourself kek?

>>46741683
https://rentry.org/MerchantResources#light-industry and scroll down a bit for locally produces alcoholic drinks

Verbally explained, the Serene Republic produces a wide variety of alcoholic drinks, with the focus being mainly on distilled beverages and beers. Wine is produced as well, but as a drink is less culturally significant.

Of particular note would be...
>Whiskey
Made primarily from either corn or malted barley, both grown all across the nation, but most notably on the Home Island.
>Rum
Made from fermented sugarcane grown on the Four Coins Archipelago. Rum can and is often spiced with various flavour components.
>Fruit Brandy
Made from the usual grapes and apples, as well as some more "exotic" fruits such as Pear, Mango, and Pineapple. Wine is made from the same fruits.

Infused drinks such as Gin and Absinthe are also produced, but in much MUCH lower quantities compared to the above mentioned "big three" of spirits. Liqueurs are produced in various flavours, including hazelnut, almond, walnut, coffee, vanilla, lemon, and various herbal and/or floral concoctions.

Among fermented beverages, the most popular ones are beers of various types. Beer is seen as the drink of the common man, and the rich and powerful also indulge in it, especially if they are attempting to be seen as "friends of the common worker".
Since there is little to no regulation when it comes to producing alcohol by fermentation, every village, town, and farmstead or mansion brews their own. This has given rise to a rich and diverse beer culture in the nasfaqgian countryside, with most towns and villages having their own specialty style. The best beers are regarded as local cultural treasures, and samples of the yeast strains that produce them are worth more than their weight in gold.
In areas where rice replaces grains as the major cereal crop, beer is replaced by rice wines.

These local beers and rice wines are rarely exported outside of the towns they are made in, and almost never find their way outside of the nation.
There are some beer styles that are popular all across the nation, mostly styles of Ale and Stouts. Of particular note would be NPA, or Nasfaqgian Pale Ale, a hoppy style of ale formulated to keep well during long voyages across Vitubia. The beer is popular among merchants and travelers, as it helps keep morale up, and reminds them of home wherever they may be.

Strong spirits were traditionally seen as drinks of the plutocrats, while the common man usually drinks beer or wine. This idea has changed however, and nowadays cheaper versions of the usual spirits are available to the poor folk as well. The past distinction is still seen in cultural rituals, which most often include stronger spirits.
Quality foreign spirits, wines, and beers are very popular among the rich, as they are seen as symbols of high status and good taste. Just having a bottle of Moriji wine on one's shelf may be enough to win some respect from local wine connoisseurs.

>>46763467
that's up to others, i'm fine with doing it personally.

>>46763234
Can you not?

>>46763590
>NPA
Does nasfaqg have hipsters to go with it? So the Serene Republic is the microbrew world capital, fun. I don't think I've ever had hazelnut liqueur, but that sounds like it'd be pretty good.

How is your progress on what you are working on today?

>>46766697
Fine, mostly trying to organise stuff before easter when i am taking a break.

>>46766697
Terrible, I just can't get the openings after attacks right and this damn thing keeps jumping around the arena, wasting the precious 30 min I have to fight it.

>>46768918

>>46498722
Would it be possible to have the quests appear in multiple rows instead of extending off the screen as they do currently? Or maybe separate rows for global and local?
It also seems impossible to advance in an isolationist build atm, as even the local quests ask for resources I don’t have.

>>46771544
>appear in multiple rows
bro, I tried I really did, but CSS and frontend UI aint my strength. Best I could do was to make it work better on mobile. It's on the TODO, but not priority.

>also seems impossible to advance in an isolationist build
Yeah, I'm thinking the same. For now, I'm planning to "patch" it by adding another quest type that is will ONLY request from things you can actually get so you can "trade your way up" with just Quest trades in a sort of tier system.

Reminder that I fucking love Kokone

Ah... yeah I can see how subtracting by negative numbers would lead to addition... Will try to fix it... Thanks for the report. Good luck with Village though

>>46777690
i mean shouldn't it kidn of counterbalance itself with village since you also got more peopel working for necesstities?

>>46777942
Every governance level has its own difficulty settings (because presumably in the future, you will unlock more things as you upgrade). I haven't messed with the Village settings too much since most of the data you guys have given me have been from Settlement levels.

>>46778153
well, i guess in 3 hours i will see just how badly i will get hit

Update: Quest assignment rebalance, and new quest type available!

>Governance Trade Quest
- Will only ask for resources you have
- Can only give resources available in your Country

>Rebalance
- Each quest type has been assigned a weight. Governance trade quests are now the most likely to be available, followed by Local trade quests, and lastly, World trade quests are the rarest.

>>46783085 (Me)
Oh also, if the anon that drew the other trade quest art is around:
If you have the time, it'd be nice to have a new icon for this new trade quest. Something kind of small, like a single market stall with a dude pitching wares or something.

CLARO

current version of WARanon, got lots of kino for him, hope you liek him.
he also decided that his beard NEEDS to be solid gold, probably killed some merchatns form the serene republic and forged it himself, because no matter what we did, it refuses to not be solid gold, we literily colored it other colors liek red and it still came out golden

I just need to get into habit of posting one random lore piece per week.

>>46790465
that'd be pretty diligent of you anon

>>46792775
I just need a goal for the project again. Lately I've been addicted to modded Minecraft. And I need motivation to stop playing. Its been interfering with me doing chores too.

>>46793197
I get the same way with Factorio so I know the feel. I'm thinking I might start writing little blurbs while at work because at least there theres no vidja for distraction

>>46787035
Is that a yellow beard?

>>46797757
I think its suppose to be gold.

>>46797757
>>46801966
It is supposed to color match his armor to help with the helmet look but it kept being solid gold even though entire beard and color changes

that will mean nothing if my village is dead in a few days because as of right now i will hit 0 happiness before the week ends

>>46843436
Kek maybe put that in there for halloween, it would get pretty repetitive after the first few times.
More subtle UI sfx could fun though, just a small *boop* for a page turning sound when switching UIs to make it feel more dynamic.
