Hello everyone,
I've been on-off playing since December and have now hit RC 7 on my (currently) only room. My code is nowhere near efficient; it's taken me at least a month and a half to get to this level. As far as power creeps stand, getting from RC 7 to 8 will take over double the energy (time) as getting to 7 just to start gaining power levels and to get my first power creep, so either I ramp up my production greatly or just fend off until a couple of months from now.
My question: With the amount of (excuse my pun) power creep that this feature will offer (which will only grow over time), should the barrier to begin getting in on this feature be lowered? I feel like lowering power spawns to RC 6 and limiting power creep level or preventing spawning power creeps in newbie areas would benefit newer players. This would allow people to begin processing power at the same time they can buy it off the market, and would allow players to choose to work on their power spawn code when they are still working on building up a single room.
Thoughts?
