Andy | Saturday, October 19, 2024 - 11:27 am 1. New Product Added to Simcountry - Electric Cars Motors Electric Cars Motors are the first product in a new group that will enable the production and use of Electric cars and electric trucks. More products will be introduced in the coming weeks. The use of Electric Cars and Electric Trucks will start a little later, allowing some time for this industry to start and make some products available. The production process of Electric car motors, will include a small quantity of Metadium which is a recently added rare metal. Metadium is already produced, only on Tiny Atlas. It can be transported to all the worlds, and can be traded on the 5 world markets. Metadium is available as a natural resource in all TA countries. It can be mined on TA and then moved to any of the worlds and can be used in the production of Electric Cars motors. 2. Increased Production in several types of corporations As some products continue to show very large shortages, we have increased the production of several such products including Construction, Military supplies, Air transport, medical equipment and defensive tank and artillery ammunition. The increase will help to reduce these shortages but will not eliminate them. the cost of these products is slightly reduced. 3. Free Players Empires Free players can conquer countries and build an empire of up to five countries. Larger empires remain the domain of full members. Until now, the limitation was there but in some cases did not work. It is now repaired and a message will appear if war is declared while the free player empire already has 5 countries. 4. Wind Energy We are introducing more smaller updates to wind turbines and wind power. The maintenance cost of wind farms continues to decline a bit and so does the base price of electric power. we are quite close to the end situation with a wind power industry that is very profitable and much more stable than before. The risk of a decline in the price of electric power remains of course, but it seems less likely. Wind energy can be a large earner for the country but making it into a dominant factor is less likely because of the difficulty in maintaining very large numbers of wind farms. 5. Defensive Targon Batteries Defensive Targon batteries were until this moment used in the maintenance of defensive Targon batteries. It lead to monthly consumption of a very small number of such batteries. we have now eliminated the use of the batteries in maintenance. |
