Hi Hayden,

Same here. The first couple of parks I created I followed the park
reports rather faithfully and every time I took one of its suggestions
I ended up making the situation worse instead of better. I found out
through a little trial and error to use my own common sense and pay
people a wage I thought they should be making for their current job
rather than listening to the park reports.

For example, I remember this one park where I was paying everyone
about 8. The park reports told me I was paying them too much and I
should pay them 3. So I lowered wages to 3 per person. The next thing
I knew all of my employees were on strike and they now wanted 10 per
person. I ended up triggering a mass strike all because I followed the
park reports' so-called expert advice. I'd been better off to go with
my own judgment which was closer to their demands than the park
reports were.

Cheers!

Hi Lori,

Well, if you haven't figured this out yet the Park Reports aren't
always accurate. What I mean by that they tend to underestimate things
like wages, and it is really up to you to find the perfect wage for
your employees. If you try to give them the bare minimum, which is
what the park report suggests, then of course they will strike.

What I do is I try and pay the employees a pound or two more than the
minimum wage suggestion which usually keeps them from striking. So if
the park report says pay operators 3 per hour pay them 5 per hour just
to be on the safe side.

Same goes for toilets. I think it suggests one toilet per so many
hundred people so if you aren't getting that many the park report
tells you to remove it. Common sense, or logic, should tell you that
you need at least one else people will complain and customer
satisfaction will go down. So this is a case of use your common sense
rather than listening to the park reports which aren't always
accurate.

Cheers!

Hi Thomas,
Funny you should mention that. I believe my last entertainers were being
paid something like 10 pounds more than my park staff. I certainly
considered firing them more than once, but I wasn't sure precisely what kind
of ramifications this might have to the number of customers.

Hi Desiree,

For what it is worth I agree with you. I find the entertainers in Park Boss
far too winy and demanding. They constantly want more and more money while
they are nothing more than a side attraction. The attraction operators and
the maintenance do the real work of keeping the park running and they only
complain if I don't pay them a decent wage based on what the park takes in.
I have fired my entertainers more than once if I thought they were being too
greedy.

Hi Thomas,
Oh, absolutely. I was simply referring to the previously made suggestion to
name them after famous rides straight out of the box. (At least, that's how
I read it.) Should Nick decide to include rides like Splash Mountain with
the game, I could see the situation possibly becoming a bit dodgey.

Hi Hayden,

Good point, but there are ways to avoid copyright and trademarks.
Namely if all attractions start out with a generic name and there is a way
to edit the profile for each attraction and give it your own name and have
it spoken by Sapi the copyright holders never need know about it. Chances
are they wouldn't know about it unless it was made public somehow. So being
able to edit and change the names of the rides yourself need not be a big
problem with copyrights and trademarks since it wouldn't officially be a
part of the game.



On 10/4/14, hayden presley hdpres...@hotmail.com wrote:
 You may not be able to add named atractions like that, seeing as how 
 they are all very much proper nouns, and said proper nouns are 
 probably copyrighted by the parks/organizations which manage them. 
 True, they probably would not discover Nick's game, but the issue is 
 whether such a gamble is worth it or not.

Re: [Audyssey] Park boss report.

2014-10-05 Thread hayden presley
Hi Thomas,
You mentioned that after striking, the employees wanted more than they were
being paid before you dropped your wages--something which brought to mind an
interesting phrase at the end of the strike eMails. If you recall, it is
mentioned that the wage might be negociable. I can't tell if this is simply
fluff, or if wage prices are, in some way, actually megociable. Problem is,
should the latter be true, I see no way of accomplishing that. Have you had
any experience in negociation with them? Perhaps you can just hold off
paying them for a week and they will shoot you a new suggestion? I honestly
am not sure.

Hayden

You're looking for a staircase leading up. Somewhere on the first floor 
you'll find a teleporter that, if you step in it, warps you back to the 
regular gaming facility. So instead walk right past it until you hear the 
staircase noise. Go up and take the south teleporter. The others will warp 
you back down to the first floor.

Re: [Audyssey] suggestion for park boss

actually, that's given me an idea.

wouldn't it be cool if say you could choose what type of seats you use 
on the rides.


an example would be the horses on the merry-go-round, you can theme them 
in to diffrent animals, or if you wanted to objects


same with rides such as the roller coaster. you could choose a roller 
coaster car, a roller coaster train, etc

Re: [Audyssey] suggestion for park boss

2014-10-05 Thread Charles Rivard
Different types of roller coasters have different ways to seat you, or you 
might be standing.  Carousels have different animals, which can be real 
artwork.  You buy them premade rather than custom built, and they would be 
at different costs, set by the ride designer and or vender.

Honestly, I've never once generated a park report. Granted, my first
park went bankrupt at sometime around week 65, because I couldn't seem
to balance my prices. My second one... I don't even know what
happened. It went from a balance of about 300,000 pounds to negative
by about that much in two weeks. It was ... I don't even know.

 Hi Hayden,

 Same here. The first couple of parks I created I followed the park reports
 rather faithfully and every time I took one of its suggestions I ended up
 making the situation worse instead of better. I found out through a little
 trial and error to use my own common sense and pay people a wage I thought
 they should be making for their current job rather than listening to the
 park reports.

 For example, I remember this one park where I was paying everyone about 8.
 The park reports told me I was paying them too much and I should pay them
 3.
 So I lowered wages to 3 per person. The next thing I knew all of my
 employees were on strike and they now wanted 10 per person. I ended up
 triggering a mass strike all because I followed the park reports' so-called
 expert advice. I'd been better off to go with my own judgment which was
 closer to their demands than the park reports were.

 Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Park boss report.

2014-10-05 Thread Desiree Oudinot
Hi,
I think the concept is that if you raise the wage just a bit, say half
of what they're asking for, that's negotiating. But I agree that this
needs to be more well-defined in the documentation, or a feature
should be added in which you talk to your employees and ask them what
they want.
It also occurs to me, now that I'm on this subject, that wages should
be able to be increased in smaller increments than just a dollar more
or less. Pardon my ignorance, but I'm not sure if this can be done in
UK currency or not. Much as we have dollars and cents here in the US,
are there smaller denominations than just pounds? I feel really silly
even asking that, but there you have it.

Re: [Audyssey] suggestion for park boss

I agree. The way it stands now, even if you put more than, say, one
roller coaster in, it feels like you're just putting two of the same
coaster in, because you can't personalize them at all.

in the game, in the menu, it says for example kids roller coaster, then

You meet and interact with some of the Hogwarts staff, which may or may not

Re: [Audyssey] suggestion for park boss

2014-10-05 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi Emily,

The game isn't that sophisticated. If you build a kids roller-coaster
the only thing you can decide is where to put it on your park's map.
Other than that you can't name it, decide number of passengers, number
of loops, etc. There is no way to modify the basic template.

[Audyssey] Audiogames.net and forum down?

2014-10-05 Thread Sarah Haake

Hi,

I can't reach the audiogames.net website and the forum.
It still worked for me about two hours ago.
Is anyone else able to reach the site or does know what the problem 
might be?


And just in case anyone feels like complaining because I'm sending this 
to the list instead of the site owner. First I don't have any contacts 
from them right now and obviously can't get them when the site doesn't 
work. And second, I also want to know if I'm the only one who can't 
reach the site or if it's a general problem.
I just say this because this kind of thing caused a quite long and 
tedious discussion last time, which is not at all what I want here.


Thanks and best regards
Sarah

How about different kinds of coasters, as in something like Rollercoaster 
tycoon: wood or steel construction, either straight, hilly, curvy, upside down, 
etc. Just a thought of something maybe to add to a great game, unique to 
anything we have on offer. I've been wondering how long it'd take before we got 
a tycoon game of sorts. Please, you guys, keep making them this awesome.

 You're looking for a staircase leading up. Somewhere on the first floor
 you'll find a teleporter that, if you step in it, warps you back to the
 regular gaming facility. So instead walk right past it until you hear the
 staircase noise. Go up and take the south teleporter. The others will warp
 you back down to the first floor.

know if it's the same way or if it's even still around.

Hi Desiree,

I happen to agree with you. I think wages should be allowed to be in
creased in smaller amounts than just pounds, and yes the UK does have
change. They call their coins by different names than the US currency,
but I think for simplicity sake Nick chose to round up or down to the
nearest pound.



On 10/5/14, Desiree Oudinot turtlepowe...@gmail.com wrote:
 Hi,
 I think the concept is that if you raise the wage just a bit, say half
 of what they're asking for, that's negotiating. But I agree that this
 needs to be more well-defined in the documentation, or a feature
 should be added in which you talk to your employees and ask them what
 they want.
 It also occurs to me, now that I'm on this subject, that wages should
 be able to be increased in smaller increments than just a dollar more
 or less. Pardon my ignorance, but I'm not sure if this can be done in
 UK currency or not. Much as we have dollars and cents here in the US,
 are there smaller denominations than just pounds? I feel really silly
 even asking that, but there you have it.

Hi Lori,

Perhaps. However, somehow I don't think that will change things much.
The consultants only look at the bottom line, what financially would
be best for your park, but totally exclude or overlook the human
element in their suggestions.

For example, if the consultants say your employees should only be paid
3 per hour it is technically correct based on your income, number of
customers, etc but not necessarily something your employees would
agree to. They may have expectations of earning a wage much higher
than that like 8 or 9 per hour, and as the boss it is your job to try
and negotiate a wage somewhere between what they want and what the
consultants suggest would be financially feasible for your park. So
firing the consultants would not do you much good since they are just
going to give you the bare minimums when suggesting wages, ticket
prices, etc. As long as you know in advance that their suggestions are
going to be a little low you can try and increase ticket prices and
wages by a couple of pounds over what they suggest to try and find the
happy medium.

Hi Hayden,

Depends on how popular your park is. Firing your entertainers may
cause a drop in customer satisfaction and you may experience a few
less customers, but I haven't noticed anything so bad I absolutely had
to hire them back. If they wanted too much money I found I was better
off without them than with them. My outgoing expenses went way down
and I could afford some loss in customer sales.



On 10/5/14, hayden presley hdpres...@hotmail.com wrote:
 Hi Thomas,
 Funny you should mention that. I believe my last entertainers were being
 paid something like 10 pounds more than my park staff. I certainly
 considered firing them more than once, but I wasn't sure precisely what
 kind
 of ramifications this might have to the number of customers.

 Best Regards,
 Hayden

Hi Hayden,

Generally when you negotiate with your employees you can try and offer
a price and they will either go back to work or still stay out on
strike. There is no way to just wait them out. I tried that once and
my park went under with everyone stubbornly waiting for me to increase
their wages. My strategy is to try and meet them in the middle. Say I
am paying them 8 per hour and they want 10 I can increase their wages
to 9 per hour and that will end the strike.



On 10/5/14, hayden presley hdpres...@hotmail.com wrote:
 Hi Thomas,
 You mentioned that after striking, the employees wanted more than they were
 being paid before you dropped your wages--something which brought to mind
 an
 interesting phrase at the end of the strike eMails. If you recall, it is
 mentioned that the wage might be negociable. I can't tell if this is simply
 fluff, or if wage prices are, in some way, actually megociable. Problem is,
 should the latter be true, I see no way of accomplishing that. Have you had
 any experience in negociation with them? Perhaps you can just hold off
 paying them for a week and they will shoot you a new suggestion? I honestly
 am not sure.

Hi,
Thanks. The principle of negociation wasn't quite what was alluding me; it
was simply how it was applied in the context of Park Boss. I'll have to try
that and see what happens.

Re: [Audyssey] Park boss report.

Hi Lori,

One way to help with keeping yourself out of the red is by slightly
raising meal and snack prices. Meal and snack prices will be your main
source of income so finding out how much your customers will pay will
help as far as currency goes.

Another way to help increase profit is find ways to get more customers
such as paper and radio adds if you can afford them. Sometimes they
will get you nothing and sometimes you may pull in an extra couple
hundred customers per week.

P.S.

As for Steve Jobs he was the former CEO of Apple. However, he died a
few months back.

 Hi Thomas, odd that the park reports are so unrelyable, those darned

 The strange thing is, even though I've encreased ticket prices, I still
 amen't making enough money to keep myself from going into overdraft.  My
 ticket prices and snacks are set at fair, but I'm still paying out more than

 is coming in.  It's really frustrating!  I don't even know who Steve Jobs
 is, perhaps nick should have made it Bill Gates instead.  :)
