| Summary | 0017334: [confusion issue] No guidance on inventions | ||||
| Description | Having just re-read Chris' notes on how useful reports of confusion are, I figured I should log this - hopefully not a duplicate... Inventions don't really get presented to the player at all at the moment, as far as I can tell. My very first blackshirt beta playthough (0.894), I didn't even realise I had any. There was no reason to click on the Inventory tab of the social/diplomacy/etc screen. In my current game, I'm keeping an eye on it, but I'm still unclear on: 1) What's creating new entries (inventors?) 2) what's building the invented things (factories?) 3) how are the bonuses factoring in (is military power already rolled into my helipad tooltip?) 4) what are my other options for these things (i can trade, but how do I know if my production is keeping up with my trade) A lot of this may be resolvable in the tutorial, but I think we can make some concrete changes in the UI too: 1) Clickable event for a new invention, taking you to the inventory to check it out 2) mouseover of an invention showing where it's production is coming from (so i can see how to make it faster, quickly). Yes we have the "points" at the top, but I don't know which points apply to which invention (Mammalian Implants are... manufacturing?) I *think* that will help me see how to build a strategy around trade domination - right now I feel like I don't know how to get into that area of the game (which is pretty crucial if you want to beat the Acutians... :P) | ||||
