It made it sound like it should take LONGER for ships to be built.

That sounds like it would make abuse by strong players easier. But of course it isn't that hard now, and there is relatively little of it, so maybe that's ok.

My understanding of the Ocrowd mechanism was that the more materials are extracted from a resource, the higher the Ocrowd goes.

However this is not what seems to be happening.

Specifically Ocrowd seems to consider facilities which are not in production (HALTED) to be in full production when calculating the Ocrowd penalty. Thus even if several people in a location are not producing anything the rest is hit by a potentially very significant Ocrowd penalty.

It seems like this is both a bug and a problem as it can be used to cheaply overcrowd locations (you overcrowd by not producing anything - so you pay very little for causing the Ocrowd).

I suspect that this is not what is intended but it has at times a very important impact on the game economics.

(I am not sure how Ocrowding handles facilities in partial production but that may be also an issue? Maybe worth checking if this is being looked into)

Even though corporations in the game are not publicly traded (wouldn't that be something though?) they still have to delare all their assets.

• Forbid multi-accounting.
• Because its impossible to know for sure if someone is multi-accounting or if its just two people being legit, even with the technical checks, have no further rules or stipulations.
  
• Allow for players to submit a ticket or something if they believe a player is multi-accounting, then (with all the spare time i'm sure you don't want to spend on this kind of thing) have Seren or Dread check the activity to see if its likely to be a multi-accounting issue or just two people playing from the same place.
  
• If someone is suspecting of multi-accounting, They should be given a warning and allowed to reply.
  
• If there is more suspicious activity, the account that seems to be the main account should be banned for 4 weeks.
  
• If there is a repeat offense, both accounts should be deleted.

Small Giants and Grandor may be leasing the rights from another city, but that city should be listed in the name of their center. For future reference, building or maintaining a halted research center is permitted at the discretion of the City Manager. Best to contact them directly through the Comms to avoid misunderstandings.
