What should I do now?????

[Guest]

I have a well, a factory, a gas station, and $68803. What should my next move be?

I personally believe in sticking to the basics (i make power ONLY atm), however, in your case, i reccomend saving up your money so you can buy more supplies and produce better items. Also, research centers are always good.

First you should produce oil in the well, then the gas and sell it in your station... after getting so some money, you can think about your next strategy. (maybe you want to have a second gas station, that would be of an advantage later on and you could increase your cash by this)....

There are several threads in this forum here dealing with how to get cash, expand or build new, which branches are profitable etc.

Good luck

Yes, the trick is to figure out how you can balance your production of oil and gas with your selling rate in the gas station so that you make fast profit.

I would suggest, once you have more money, that you invest in a power plant since that will significantly reduce your oil costs.

Also, make sure not to ever spend all your money because you need some cash for production.

Yes, i agree with tim's idea on a power plant. However, i am doing it the reverse way. i have been producing on average 1m power per day, but am now slowly moving into oil productin.

I discussed that very topic tody with a friend. I haven't analyzed the numbers enough to know if one method is much better than another, but it seems the important thing is to focus on something that can make substantial money with your first investment. Then work up or down the supply chain. So starting with just power, you can make money. You just need to have severaal power plants (maybe 4 or 5). Then you can start working your way up any supply chain, keeping your costs low. I started with an oil well, factory and a mine. But I think now it would have gone faaster if I had gotten my gas station first before the mine.
