  1. Okay, it's like that in my home system: Owning all stations with full production lines for Water/Wheat/Energycells -> Liquor -> Casino What's the reason for sending liquor to the own casino? It's just lying there unused in the casino's depot. The same with any other luxury good in the casino, what's the reason to send your own produced goods there? Selling the liquor right out of the distill does give a decent amount of money, though. Edit: I saw it now, the citizens there use the liquor and give me money for that. But is it really worth it? Edit 2: So I did the observation and the maths: I set the sell/buy percentage to 0 % on my distill. The casino had enough liquor to use. In roundabout 10 minutes, my casino used liquor 3 times: Amount Money Profit Price p.p. 52 102.616,00 9.328,00 1.973,38 € 59 116.430,00 10.584,00 1.973,39 € 48 94.723,00 8.611,00 1.973,40 € Means the casino used 159 liquor with a price of 313769 credits. If extrapolated to 180 liquor, I would have gotten 355212 credits In the same time, my distill sold liquor once for this: Amount Money Price p.p. 180 433.980,00 € 2.411,00 € Sooo, it's easy to see, selling directly from my distill is way more proftible by a mere 22%. What's the point of supplying casinos with liquor and other goods when you can make a lot more money by directly selling stuff from your factories?
  2. Oh believe me, people LOOK at the titles. Imagine a discussion at your workplace: "hey mate, I heared about a new sandbox survival space game like space engineers but better." - "yeah? what's the name?" - "Avorion".... okay.... you get home a couple of hours later and already forgot the name... something with a.... aventur... avon... or was it different? I can't remember... never mind, I'll play cs:go instead. The argument about people asking for avorion, and what it is, is legit. But if they can't remember the game's name for a couple of hours? Well, I don't say everyone is dumb, you could write down the name or even search it immediately on your smartphone... but it's all mouth-to-mouth propaganda, especially for new "indie" games. Well, just let that sink in, you don't even have to change anything, it's not my game and who am I to give an advice. This game could be great! I will buy it, that's for sure and I really hope, the developers get everything they want. money, fame, girls! :)= P.S.: What do you think if you hear the name "Empyrion" - An empire . Easy to remember, imho What about Soma - Short name, easy to remember and gives some imagination about Insomnia or Coma And Terraria - Terra, the earth. Craft and sculpt the earth. Yours, Doc
  3. Hi there, quite a big topic but I have to bringt it: THE NAME OF THE GAME! Avorion. It sounds good at first glance, but I can assure you, as a 35-years old gamer since the first small bits of gaming, the name is important. Avorion sounds quite good at first glance, like I said, but you really need something more .... hmmmm.... something that will stay in mind, have a glitter, something you will remind at first if someone asks you what you want to play.... I doubt many players will spout out "AVORION". If you'd ask me, I'd say, WHAT? Okay, you will kill me now, but I will bring the example: SPACE ENGINEERS. Why not? It's quite simple. Everyone will have some connection to it. Something very easy but quite connecting. The "Space". The "Engineers" who will build the future community. Another example, now you will kill me completely: Elite.... THE Elite... DANGEROUS! It's the ELITE, this game is PURE DANGER, hence the name DANGEROUS!.... Another example: The citizen that lives in the stars.... Star Citizen... DAMN! That will be kept in mind. What is Avorion? Can you connect something to it? I couldn't. And neither could any of my friends. It's a good name for work-in-progress for pre-alphas but after that? You really need a name that fits the ambition of your project. Something powerful, something easy as well, something that will be kept in mind, even if you don't think about it.... you know what I mean? Your project is fantastic, you deserve the attention. You need a better name, in my opinion. Keep up the good work, kick the throne-holders out of their places. Yours, The Doc P.S.: Sorry for the bad english, for I am not a native english speaker...
