Steam

#60
On old cities: I mean, being able to nuke them was more or less the idea all along right? You don't want to have to support multiple styles if you don't have to.

Of course I'm not really playing at the moment (let most of my yearly sub just go by unplayed) so I'm not concerned about any cities (and I would just start over anyway, was only on to test new city building).

Really though, probably good to start going over a true roadmap to Steam release right now, and go over potential blockers.

My 3 main concerns right now:

Starting tutorial and guides: need a better intro into everything, and it needs to be some sort of in-game tutorial with tutorial windows, hints, etc. If someone starts up your game and immediately has to tab out / close it just to learn how to play it, thats not a great experience. This mostly just covers survival and city building and making money, then basic spacecraft flight. Ships and building design is its own animal that needs covering later.

Sufficient, good looking public designs for every building, preferably dependable ones that can be linked into some tutorial. Same for ships. These designs need to show up the first thing when people go looking to build stuff, be clearly purpose labeled, and, of course, work.

Anything left to do with the economy, or item crafting setup/times/progress bars/etc, do it now. You want players to be able to earn money doing any task without being confused, you want to fix any and all possible rollover things left (is it still possible to overflow vulcium suit sales from a spaceship?), etc. Right now, starting players earn a single credit a work-click, plus of course they have to actually start making bullion in the first place, so the best way to gain actual funds right at the start is to just make a giant road and go afk-build it, since working factories is just a click-to-run and then run away to the next factory while the job itself is automated. Alternatively of course, theres petty theft (anywhere from stealing suits to grabbing teepees from villagers and bartering it back to them for things), a minor amount of foraging power (find a gem tile area and hawk a few of em every few minutes), etc just to get you started. Once in space, and then a short time later, you make just enough money from trading (and jobs are usually not worth doing at the moment), and then once you are progressed enough you harvest and print your own money and have, well, way too much with no real money sinks.
