Should shipyards appear out of thin air for new factions, and should shipyards be the only thing that can build shipyards?
Its way more interesting to have ships be built in batches, or to have rush-jobs be done to assemble one ship in an emergency than it is to enforce a one at a time rule. [This] is certainly going to be used by Frost to insist that distributed factories and product outsourcing can't be used to contribute to ship construction, or that if a factory on some planet somewhere is being used to make parts for a ship, it can only make parts for that ship for that period of build time.
Which the question then becomes is that 1+10+10 shipyards for a total of 21 per system? 1+10 since the huge starbase shipyards count against the total? Or is that just a flat 10 because the huge starbase doesn't count?
I feel like the last thing a statless, systemless RP like Star Army needs is more rules.
I'm on this side. I don't really get why we're seeing Zack ragging on Frost and dragging him through the mud, screaming for an NTSE ban, in a submission thread. I'm also not sure what you've been smoking, Zack, that you think no one wants to do Elysia things. Their Discord is active and Elysia-related RP is scattered in many plots.This is going nowhere without the SM. If anybody thinks replying right now is helping their case is foolish, so don't do it. Just let this sit until the SM can make a call.
While this is definitely the ideal, I think monthly tracking wouldn't do much aside from try people's patience. There's a lot of work that goes into being FMs even before the level of tedious micro-meta managing it would plop toward some of us.Would it be possible to just send out a monthly PM or something, first of the month, between the FMs and Wes or Ame and the other setting people that just says what you either built last month or planned to build the coming month? And give a very short explanation, maybe with a link to a thread? And if anyone sees a problem they point it out in private, Wes or whoever has final say, and everyone has a record of who did what when, and why? Or maybe a check-in every other month, every quarter, etc.
I'd suggest using a wiki page to track it, but that could be edited without everyone noticing, and having it saved in a PM would be 'safer' I suppose.
