Cost: 1200 Energy + 200 EM per round, 20 rounds

A total of 35 completions needed to unlock the next mission.

Reward: 50 Exp + Vvairx Flux Conduit

been waiting since the 13th for this to open, nothing yet, and yes ticket was sent in. any eta dan?

Still no update I assume? I need to know how many ecubes and tris I can use on the mission before this lol.

Another support ticket was sent. Been a week and a half now. Maybe this chapter has more complex coding than the others. Who knows...

Maybe Dan should stop being lazy. Writing code for a game like this shouldn't be hard.

It's probably easier for him to just have one big update with this mission + QPedd event (+ 7-Year reward ?)

If by easier, you mean "more convenient", then yes. However, what is more convenient for Dan isn't necessarily more convenient for us.

quick dumb question, is this the followup in the most recent chain? i kind of phased out on killing straazi so im one behind for sure.

this isn't about lazy: making a game is harder then people think (i know from experience). Next to the just making, there is testing, bug fixing, more bug fixing, maintenance, tracing reported bugs (that sometimes turn out to be ghosts), ...

Also i don't know about GL but i don't think that this developing GL is a full time job for everyone so that cuts down the available time even more.



this game runs within FB, i don't have experience with this but it wouldn't suprise me that for a game to do that it (and all updates) need to be certified (like game updates on game platforms). That takes time so if this is the case he can't just push updates every week

Nope and nope. Facebook doesn't give two craps about what your app does, so long as it doesn't violate their terms of service. GL doesn't need any certification whatsoever.

fine then, i have no personal experience with this

this is also a kinda pointless discussion and probably the wrong place for it, could a moderator maybe move this out of this topic into a seperate one in the pub? that way this isn't in the way when the mission gets released

its here

35 runs at 20 clicks 1200 energy+200 em each click

item is a planet building called Vvarix Flux Conduit


Vvarix Flux Conduit
[ Planet Structure - Size:1, Research:2, Artifact:1 ]
This structure gains additional bonuses based on your ship size when built.
Limit 1 per planet.
costs 500energy to place

Extractable?

Not bad. I'll be curious what the bonuses are in relation to ship size. I got big decks, and I cannot lie!!

1st 1 built already

Vvarix Flux Conduit Research: 4, Artifact: 2, Cloak: 600, Bonus Research: 8%

How many decks? And is it extractable so it can be re-placed when you have more decks?

I'm so glad we are getting more research boosts...

it's still size 1, Artifact 2 and cloak 600.... atleast if you have x decks
the rest is just a bonus.... that some players might actualy need if Dan keeps giving us more ship modules with a 2.4 bil upkeep like the Jam Attenuator

think x = 6K'ish decks for pokerman, but not 100% sure

Anyone willing to provide their deck vs bonus?

Still need someone to confirm whether or not it can be extracted so you can re-place them later for better bonuses, or if it's better to wait.
