Electronics Industry suggestion to Developers

Guest · Post by **Guest** » 06.12.2009, 18:47

With several years of electronics manufacturing experience, and a lot of time in the clean rooms fabricating memory "chips", I see an ingredient lacking in this game's own electronics factory. Gold.

There is a department called Wire Bond in the clean rooms, that "stitch in a gold thread, half the size of a human hair, into each die on a substrate. In other words, if you were to crack open those rectangular black chips on your memory cards or on the motherboards of your PC's, you will find gold in them.

In regards to this game, I think it is worth suggesting that E-Components and CPU's should have gold added to their ingredients. In game terms, this would translate to .1 grams of gold per unit. Realistically, even .1 is high, but for game mechanics of Kapilands, I think it'd work fine.

Plus this would give gold producers a new and lucrative avenue for their gold.

After spending 10 minutes combing the search engine for similar suggestions, I didn't find one. And like this section is titled, this is only a suggestion.

If anyone is curious, using a gold reclamation process (using a saline solution, electric current, and a cathode to catch the gold), roughly 10,560 CPU's would garner 1 troy ounce. Considering how quickly computers advance and get old after 2-3 years, that isn't an unrealistic expectation. However, the energy and labor you put into reclaiming gold from that many PC's is huge. Although with the price of gold here in America today, 1 CPU is almost worth a dime. The other benefit from this, is that you can recycle the metal remnants as scrap steel and make 2.5 cents a pound (at least where I live). Trust me, desktop tower frames add up in weight real quick.

I actually like this suggestion.

It'd give me something more to do in R1 as I produce chemical products and E-Components there.

I like this suggestion too. I produce gold!

I thought about this before but i was thinking more along the lines of gold plated cables. Didnt realise there was gold thread added as you said.

Electronics is already confusing and doesnt need to be made any more. And since when has Kapilands been like real life, we have been giving off about that for ages and nothing has been done. The End.

Complicated? Are you serious? Silicon and power (E-Comp). Or Silicon, Plastic, and power (CPU). Where did you get lost? You totally missed the point of this suggestion little rewt.

I will quickly review what the suggestion is about. Adding gold to E-Components and CPU's "ingredient" list will open a whole new avenue for gold producers, so it isn't solely limited to jewelery.

The background info of how these are built is there just to serve as a foundation, to understand where my suggestion is coming from.

The difficulty is adding another few intresting stuff (gold) to produce an even fewer intresting stuff (CPU)...

That would be a good reason to make even less intresting the sector, that already has his problems.

programers are too lazy to add new stuff to the game

they sayed no new items (and changing a current item makes him to a new one :/)

so...

nive Idea, but they wont.

Ahem, what is this forum subject's tag?

Ideas how the game could be improved and suggestions for subsequent versions of the game. (this is just a space for ideas! We can't guarantee suggestions will be implemented!)

Ya. Thought so.

Why the hell don't the programmers, or the administrators awnser to this suggestion.. even if it's a "NO WAY"... at least show us that you read our sugestion....

Right?

The programmers like leaving us in the dark. Also if someone posted that we would know who was the programmer and we would inevitably spam him.

OK, but we know who is the administrator... at least him...

Ohh, but he's on Hollidays now... he will only return 5th January...

I hope he says someting about Opus IDEAS!

read the refused suggestions :/
It says no new products.
changing a product, makes it to a new product, it will take them over 5minuts to do it, so they wont.

Nope, it doesn't make it a new product at all Illy. It's a shame that you are incapable of just understanding that I made a proposal to open a small and new avenue for gold producers. Adding the gold to CPU's and E-Comps will not cause any adjustments to be made in the market, which means a programmer just adds the required .1 gold to the list of stuff to make the CPU's and E-Comps. That's it.

If you wanna grouse anymore about this subject Illy, then do so in PM. Thank you.

Oh ya, just remember, you're not Upjers, you're not the person that says ok or no. If others had ideas shot down, that doesn't mean anyone else making a suggestion isn't going to have some success.

well in a way he's just promoting the rules
admins get frustrated when people suggest already suggested and restricted ideas
