BlogNomic: The First Dynasty of Desertfrog

Looks like this can lead to an infinite money loop. You can by an engine for ₩0 at 0%, fix it up to 100% for the price of 65%, then immediately sell it full price and do it again.

Shhh, I had plans for that loop.

As one of the players with the most money, that’s exactly why it’s a good reason for me to point it out.

If you pay me some of your money, I will graciously vote against this proposal.

Maldor, to fix that I recommend just eliminating the multiplier from the fixed version, to result in a 1 to 1 ratio

@TDS repairing would be pointless then, since you’d end up with the same amount of money if you sold your engine and rebought it at 100%

I’d suggest capping it to a number of % between each bout, but it might take up the same design space as the 5% per part per bout you also get.

Edited to include a cap on repairs and a “lockout” period so that you can’t just do the same atomic actions multiple times on a single piece of equipment

I don’t think I’d vote for the new version—it seems ambiguous as to whether it also prevents a player from using the “repair all components by 5%” action, and seems to make it very difficult to fully repair a system that’s, say, at 50%.

This honestly feels kind of redundant to me. You can repair your bot in 3 ways, so making one of those ways more complicated doesn’t really add anything. I’d honestly rather just have the rule repealed outright.
