Post by: lordpalandus on March 27, 2012, 02:02:15 AM: Patch Idea:

Agridomes currently do not have a set capacity limit.

-----------------------------------------------

In that case, maybe make it so that you can have a limited amount of food on hand say 250 points of food. So then storage would be 10250 for the first agridome.

The idea of taking food from trucks is also nice, but we may have to change the original LR games, because those usually give you one truck of food which may not be enough.

Post by: Freeza-CII on March 31, 2012, 07:24:15 AM: im not entirely sure if this is a good idea some maps might not allow you the space to build the extra agridomes you need to sustain a colony that you want. Food isnt exactly a commodity you spend alot ether. you cant just go out and spend food on things so what is the point in limiting it other then some extra sense of realism. its understandable why you would limit resources because you are going to spend them and you really them to expand attack and defend. so if they limit you on that you have to think about how you are spending. and wouldnt you want to have alot of food around.
