FUNDING THE NEW PLANET

by Hazed

So you get your new planet linked into the game, but where does it get its money from? Your first planet, which you got when you promoted to Founder, was funded by the liquidation of your company and all the depots, which usually amounted to a healthy amount of groats in the treasury to start you off. Your new planet doesn't have that advantage so starts off with a float of zero groats.

Actually, this isn't a real problem. Your nice new agri exchange will probably start generating money right away, unless you have been unlucky enough to get a really bum roll. In any case, you can transfer money from your personal bank balance into the planet using the 'TRANSFER megagroats' command. Yes, you do get taxed extremely heavily, but you shouldn't have to do it all that often once you get the new planet up and running.

Bella will also look at providing a way for you to transfer money from one planet to another. You will only be able to do it with your own planets, of course, so it won't be a sneaky way to get around the groat gift limits!
