Simple Proceedures

Help | Notes/FAQ

This page contains instructions and proceedures which each player will need to do in order to succeed, this is a kind of start-up guide to my RPG, after reading this if you still do not understand things then read notes page, and then goto teh help area and state your question to one of the people listed there.

1. Buying Items for you race

To buy Items you goto the Catalog page, and read teh information on the structures and other items by clicking on their links, take note of teh price and if you have enough money, (which is recorded in teh stats you recieve) then add it to your order, and send all orders via teh links at the bottom of teh catalog.. remember to check catalog before making orders, as prices are subject to change.

2. Selling Items, Ships and structures.... Structures can be sold back for 25% of teh catalog buying price at time of selling.  Ships can be sold to either other players or in the same way as structures.  You can also sell technologies and maps and other things.

NOTE: you have to be in official contact with the other race to make a deal.

3.  Researching Technologies.  On the bottom of your stats you will have your reserach items you can pick from, to research you need Labs and scientists.

4.  Exploring The universe: To explorer you need to map out sectors of space.  A list of the sectors are on the Locations page, for which you can send ships to, it als contains a list of which ones have jumpgates.  You can travel to sectors without jumpgates, but it takes a lot longer to get there. Mapping can only be done by a Explorer vessel, mapping can take 2 days to 2 weeks.  This will get you the Sector map or a list of planets in that sector. You can then send ships to those locations, as targets or to scout and scan the planets.

5. Scanning the planets: this can only be done by short range scoutships and scoutships. Each scan with each sensor can take 2 days to 2 weeks, its a slow process t see if the world is suitable for your race. to be suitable it must have the right atmosphere, and not have any life forms on it already. You can build a colony on a planet without scanning it, but If the atmosphere isn't right it will die out and alsoi if theers already life on it, it will die out.

6. Colonising Planets: If after you have the scanning results the world needs terraforming you can send a terraformer to terraform the planet, and then a coloniser to Colonise it, Chosing 1 colony type from teh colonies page.  

7. Battles: If you wish to attack someone then YOu tell me what ships you want t send, the mision objectives, and aims, a brief desription fo the tactics and strategy you wish to use, and when if atall you would conceed and flee. etc.. and if you are being attacked you do not chose what ships you fight with, it will be whats there at the time, but i will ask you for yoru tactics etc.. and then i will write up the battle as it happens including all special elements like supprise and luck, and post the whole report and news story on ISN. for everyohe to read about it.

I will add more to this area later, if theres some information about things that should be on here, or processes need explaing, please tell me:)
