I understand now. I think this is already dropped into the structures Display Logs when it doesn't have enough components, I might be able to use that to display at least an icon on the assets page that something is wrong with the structure.

Might try to do something like that with the military units also. a warning icon or message when there is something in the units logs.]]> Tue, 30 Aug 2016 12:46:35 GMT http://forum.baronsofthegalaxy.com/topic1204-question-on-order-of-operations-at-end-of-turn.aspx Doctor Dread"Non productive due to demand" is an arbitrary thing.

I second having it show on the assets list that your factory is non productive due to demand issues! Highlighted / Flashing something.

"Non productive due to demand" is an arbitrary thing. Maybe I can show the last or current demand next to the "Sell: Basic Metals (XXX) " but I'm out of room. I want to make different versions of the Assets page, one for structures only which will display more structure related information. this is something I'll put in there.]]> Sun, 28 Aug 2016 12:21:22 GMT http://forum.baronsofthegalaxy.com/topic1204-question-on-order-of-operations-at-end-of-turn.aspx Sun, 28 Aug 2016 11:49:53 GMT http://forum.baronsofthegalaxy.com/topic1204-question-on-order-of-operations-at-end-of-turn.aspx Vulpex wrote:

Oh that reminds me - would be FANTASTIC if those structures which are flagged as inoperable could actually notify of the fact - something like "no production last turn" under the assets list or something like that. I've already noticed that you are charged the full production cost even if production itself does not take place because of lack of materials *grumbles about logistics*

I think it mentions it under that structures Display Logs, not 100% sure. The Display logs should really have an exclamation point when something import is on it. I also thought that the structures would only charge you the halt production cost, need to check that. I have a toy factory that is constantly running out of wood and my overview graph shows ups and down in the structure cost.]]> Fri, 26 Aug 2016 11:10:31 GMT http://forum.baronsofthegalaxy.com/topic1204-question-on-order-of-operations-at-end-of-turn.aspx Fri, 26 Aug 2016 11:04:17 GMT http://forum.baronsofthegalaxy.com/topic1204-question-on-order-of-operations-at-end-of-turn.aspx Production - takes components for production first


That's the line that kills my idea That line means that I can't rely on current production from my mine to supply components for this turn. Basically I have to have any needed components already sitting in inventory when the turn starts if I'm producing it myself.


Thanks again.]]> Fri, 26 Aug 2016 09:44:02 GMT http://forum.baronsofthegalaxy.com/topic1204-question-on-order-of-operations-at-end-of-turn.aspx
All combat happens simultaneously. The system will combine all the units from several attacks that are going into the same location against the same corporation. So if 5 corporations are all In Madrid and attacking a single corporation, all 5 corp units will be on the same side attacking as if they were all one corporation. If some units are attacking "everyone" or a Guild at the same location they will be in there own separate fight even if there is only one defending corporation. Damage from all the fights is applied when all the fights are over they do not apply in order. The force you are fighting in a separate fight might be destroyed 10x over in another fight at the same time but you will still take damage from them as if you were the only one fighting them.

Its much better to try to combine into one attack because if you don't you're essentially giving the other side multiple attacks.]]> Fri, 26 Aug 2016 08:45:53 GMT http://forum.baronsofthegalaxy.com/topic1204-question-on-order-of-operations-at-end-of-turn.aspx
Looking at this line though (which is critical)

Production - takes components for production first


It seems to me that in fact there are two steps here.


1) Allocate materials for production
2) Production

which means in practice that materials which are produced on a given turn cannot be used downstream for other production processes. A small but important thing to note.

Am I right?

Also some more detail on combat resolution would be helpful - i.e. lets say at a given location a group of raiders is attacking ALL and units from Player A are attacking units from Player B.

How does that play out?]]> Fri, 26 Aug 2016 08:19:53 GMT http://forum.baronsofthegalaxy.com/topic1204-question-on-order-of-operations-at-end-of-turn.aspx Thu, 25 Aug 2016 21:05:20 GMT http://forum.baronsofthegalaxy.com/topic1204-question-on-order-of-operations-at-end-of-turn.aspx
