Re: [Audyssey] arrangement of buildings list in castawaysand a suggestion.
Yah I like those suggestions. Another thing I hope Jeremy can consider adding is the ability to switch certain buildings to high priority besides open and close. In mission 3 which production efficiency is very crucial in winning, I had to go round and round closing and opening buildings. One case is I needed leather in the monastery as soon as possible but my peasants kept transporting other goods. I have to close the tavern, sawmill, butcher shop and mill just to get the leather in. I think it will be helpful to switch the building that needs attention to high priority. Food is not always the most important. haha! I close my tavern a lot just to get my peasants focuss on other buildings. 锦发/Steady Goh Steady strum and sing guitar lessons; learn to play like the original and sound like a professional! http://www.soft.com.sg/forum/teacher-available/201635-steady-guitar-lessons-play-like-original-sound-like-professional.html http://www.dropbox.com/gallery/2106729/1/Steady%27s%20interview?h=bc0b40 fb: http://facebook.com/steadyguitar - Original Message - From: Che blindadrenal...@gmail.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Wednesday, August 17, 2011 12:17 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] arrangement of buildings list in castawaysand a suggestion.

Hi list. just a bit of a suggestion regarding the building list in castaways, at the moment, the order of the list seems a bit haphazard, for example, I think that all the farm types should be listed right next to each other, at the moment you have meet and vegetable farms, and then right near the bottom of the list is the animal farm, I think this should be grouped with the other two farms so they are next to each other in the list. I think in fact, that the buildings should be grouped in the order that they depend on each other, so for example, I would have the butchers shop, then the textile, and then the hospital, and other buildings that depend on it. I think also that the vinyard should be listed next to the tavern. and also perhaps the tannery should go next to the monastery as again they depend on each other. I also had another idea when playing mission 3, I think because the maps are so big, and it can take some time to explore them, I think a really useful feature would be a terrain location mode, so lets say I am at a1 and want to quickly find the nearest site to put my quarry, I could bring up a list of terrain types and find out where the nearest bit of forest, rocky ground or empty land is etc. alternatively, I did think of another job that could make this more of a useful in game feature, that of an explorer or cartographer. OK at the moment you can arrow around to find things, but if you had an explorer or cartographer, you could find out from him where the nearest bit of forest is or whatever, and a benefit of having him could be that all your peasants and builders move around quicker, as he could advise on the quickest root. I certainly think a quick terrain location feature could be useful anyway. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] arrangement of buildings list in castawaysand a suggestion.
Nice thought Che. Also markers could let you plan out where future buildings go a bit more logically, by marking a square say for your stables even before you've got the necessary requirements.
