"OGame" - Intergalactic Conquest

[sof]

Xen - there seems to be seven of us in it at the moment. It looks as if Taff has started over from fresh, and as far as i can tell most, if not all, of us are beginners.

Members so far are:

LJoll
CosmicFish
Sandus
seanyseanybean
Slindsay

saru1968
Taff

I don't know who LJoll is - might be a non mapper.

[RosaA]

Yep any tips would be great and i'm glad the resources roll in whilst offline.


:-)

ps.. I don't think we should let Taff pilot any ships without a breatherliser test.

[TawneeC]

Na. LJoll is me. It's my intitials including the start of my first name. It was a bit stupid in retrospect, I wonder if I can change it.

It's a bad day at work when I sit and watch the timer's tick down till a new factory is built

Bit of a hint, don't for god's sake make the mistake I did and try to gather anything other than metal and power at first otherwise you pay for your mistake for a good 24 hours

[BoggerChick]

Yeah I started from fresh, didn't know there was another one going.

I may have sent drunken messages to people. I had some serious problems last night.

Anyone understand how the energy tab works, currently I have -57/48 on it which I suspect is bad

[mylove4u1302]

Yeah, it means your mines need 105 energy to run at full capacity, but you're only able to supply them with 48. In short - build more solar plants.

When you're operating on less energy than you need, you can micro-manage how much each resource is mined in 10% increments on the resources page. It only updates when you hit "calculate" though. If you don't micromanage, I think it scales them all down proportionately.

Next question, has anyone found any decent tutorials and instructions on how to play the game?
