Re: Newbie mine question

Re: Newbie impressions

Thanks folks. I really will give the mods a try once the patch is out. I really appreciate the effort that goes into them. I've even been looking at the files and thinking about what I could do.

Re: OT - We never landed on the Moon

Personally I don't believe in Cleveland. I've never been there myself...I think it is a government plot to make everyone else content with their own city.

Repeat Build sounds useful. I'll give it a try.

I've got about 500,000 minerals in storage and am wasting about 100,000 per turn. Less for farming and refining. Is that sufficient or should I...
