Title: interest Post by: Silence444 on June 07, 2008, 05:57:17 PM I know that this was discussed in detail when the interest mechanic was changed; but, i am having a hard time figuring out what happens to interest rates when a player has no workers... does the game steal all of your money or none? and then if the answer is all y?
i suppose that i could create an alt just to test this... but if anybody already knows i would appreciate the answer. Title: Re: interest Post by: Cameron07 on June 07, 2008, 06:09:46 PM im not sure but i imagine when you have 0 workers you get 0 interest aswell
Title: Re: interest Post by: Silence444 on June 07, 2008, 06:14:14 PM does hat make sense? after all the game logic for u losing interest is that the workers steal it... (no workers = no steal?)
Title: Re: interest Post by: jessiedog on June 07, 2008, 07:04:57 PM its pointless to imagine.
if u have 0 workers, u probably dont have the minimum of 50 mil creds to get interest anyway... are u planning no having 0 workers? Title: Re: interest Post by: Silence444 on June 07, 2008, 07:45:05 PM nah i'm not planing on it jessie... i am just asking a question. i was helping j3matt recover segs to stop his negative worker growth and it occurred to me just how stupid that would be. it is, for example, to leave with a bil workers/creds in base and come back from vacation with 0 workers after raids and still have some cash. another example would be a new account that decided to donate and just dump cash in hi base... idk just seems stupid to me that it would zero your interest...
Title: Re: interest Post by: jessiedog on June 07, 2008, 08:43:37 PM i guess it does, but that is the only hole found in the stolen interest thing. other than that i think it works great
Title: Re: interest Post by: Cameron07 on June 07, 2008, 09:28:00 PM well with 0 workers you have no one there to protect your stash and bums of the street can take it
Title: Re: interest Post by: Chrys on June 07, 2008, 10:52:46 PM Once you have gone down the worker way, its next to impossible to be brought down to zero workers anyway. you will always have segs, and thus you will always have workers. Look at paralex, he was raided and hunted for months. Yet he still has his workers.
Title: Re: interest Post by: Silence444 on June 08, 2008, 12:15:07 PM i see what u guys are saying... but i still see no legit reason for it to happen. ssry... but bums on the street just plain doesn't happen on highly classified secret military installations... (in space)

Title: Re: interest Post by: SkyTitan on June 30, 2008, 06:08:32 PM Space bums don't have the money or knowledge to even get in. The reason there shouldn't be interest is you need workers to run the bank and run the money presses(or whatever they're called). I mean, come on you don't get interest from a bank with nobody there. People don't just come in and steal the money. It's just that no one is there to give you the interest.
Title: Re: interest Post by: Cameron07 on July 02, 2008, 01:19:50 AM no, space bums are real...

Where do you think they get the money for fuel? From derelict secret bases with no workers, you bet :)) They just take your interest because they are good people and don't want you to notice :P |
