WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

by Hazed

Right now, new Engineers do not have to worry about dissatisfaction. That's going to be turned on in the next few weeks, so you have a breathing space in which to make sure you have all the builds in place to prevent disaster striking. You will need to read through the information for the builds which are available right now, to see which ones are required to counter disaffection - for example, the ecology builds and the security build are ones where failure to build enough infrastructure will cause your population to slack off and work slower, or even to riot! Get the details from the Idiot's Guide.

Once disaffection is in, Bella will work on the auto-promotion for Founders. This will ensure that no PO can keep on doing builds to improve the planet while remaining at the level where disaffection won't bite. Once this code is implemented, if your planet has 35 builds, it will automatically promote at the next reset.

You will also find that builds which affect population will only show their effect if it is positive, not negative - in other words, the effect of reducing population isn't implemented yet.

And then, we will start to see the next tranche of builds get implemented as Bella codes them one by one. A goddess' work is never done!
