Research

Ok just thought of this dont know if it is good or has been said before.

Ok so your researching but your research is done in 5 hours your leaving for 3 days thats a lot of time that your research is not being done right well what if you could make it so you can research 2 things for example. Research Steel 5, Steel 6 When research 5 is done it starts on research 6 in the same research center. You have to be a VIP member. You have to pay for it once you click it not when it starts researching for it. And you can only have 2 researchs like steel 5 and steel 6 you cant have it set for 3. And once research steel 5 is done you can research 6 and 7. Down sides if you need something else and cancel it you lose your money.

Too much automation is bad. It seems to me that would have the same advantages as scripting. It is legal to have someone babysit your account. That is likely to be the only solution that will be offered.

I both like and dislike the idea.

It would actualy be great if you didn't have hire a babysitter everytime you are not able to manage you account for a while.

But as it has been said, if you can automate you buisness too much, it'll take some of the fun out of the game, and make it less challenging.

Admin buildings don't work for you when you aren't there. All they do is save you clicks when you are there.

And it will do work for you when you aren't there. That is the part that will make it never happen.

...correct: that is too much automation and will therefore not be implemented (next suggestion would definitely be: why can't I give further orders to my production buildings? If I am away and they are ready with producing oil... why can*t I tell them to produce xyz afterwards?)

And I also agree with Ainvos opinion regarding the admin buildings: that's quite a difference... ;)

Good one Elwood I like that. Perhaps you should have started your own thread though, because not everyone will be able to find it in here!

Or, set research to 20. And make it build 50m2 after every research and hire additional scientists to keep the time down?
