Simply amazing. Who was blue?

Perseus was blue. I was green.

And before someone ask : yeah it was a real game 2v2+1AI that we won that way. NRS+V44

Maybe re-post here (:

And so... I really did it. I created a new building called "post-nuclear housing" in the NRS+ mod. This building is an hybrid between a wall and a reactor. It's kinda useless both as full wall and as full power production. But if you can spam enough and use them as a shell to protect more crucial buildings... Here is how it should be use :

So, it is a ... wall?

The roof seems to be a flattened command center, but looks interesting nonetheless.

So, it is a ... wall?

As I said, it is an hybrid between a wall and a reactor (power production). It doesn't produce enough to be a target of opportunity for the opponent and have enough hp for him to try to avoid them or go trough instead of attacking.

that's fun

Hi Iluvalar,

I've been playing your mods lately, and I have a question.
I understand that the post-nuclear housing doesn't do much in the way of power, but your mod doesn't make it very clear whether solar or nuclear is the better way to go.
I notice that you use both in your images, and nuclear plants are more expensive than solar, but which boosts power production more?

Thanks,

how you build in the border area?

Wz city strikes yet again!

how you build in the border area?

there is approximately 4 tiles of the outside edge that are supposed to be unusable. any oils put in this area are what i like to call "unreachable" . unless of course the code has been changed ... with out us being advised of this.

Hello Searge-Major. Good question. The interest rate may vary from one setting to the other. I fix the price so a single player research more than a 4p player but less than the whole team. As a result I expect a smaller gain from 1p alone than a team of 4p. But right now the interest rate is fixed at 1.5$ per 100$ each 10 seconds. To be easier to understand I made both the reactor and the solar plant produce as much as 100$ . Since you get 3 solar plant for 2 reactor, the solar plant are obviously better . There is NO change between 40$ you keep in your pocket and 40$ you spend in housing, it's the same interest. You just get for your 40$.

Thanks for replying,
I understand the bit about housing, by building housing you effectively invest $40 per house, and get the same return as if you had kept the money, except you can't spend that money any more.
But, I still don't fully understand the nuclear and solar plants , I do understand that the solar plant does the same for less,
but I'm not 100% sure what it does. Does it increase the rate of interest, with the maximum being $100 per 10 seconds;

the reactor and the solar plant produce as much as 100$ .

or does it actually increase power generating performance?

Sorry for the lengthy questions, but I'm trying to work out a strategy, and if solar works on interest, then obviously I need to keep money in the bank.

Thanks for taking the time,
