Nope, missed your map idea, but as I said I'm farily certain where it is possible to look at nearest biome of a given type we won't have a problem. As to skills, every background you complete bumps your skills up to 100 to the point you can learn all the skills, which is good, I think that is eventually the point. All the best, Dark. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Darren Harris" <darren_g_har...@btinternet.com> To: "'Gamers Discussion list'" <gamers@audyssey.org> Sent: Friday, March 21, 2014 3:16 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Wayfar Mud > Dark did you see my idea on their ideas board when it comes to maps? > > Yeah am doing the ranger background now. am a little disappointed that we > lose our skills when we reroll but I got most of them back now. does your > max skill points go up by 100 each reroll? > > -----Original Message----- > From: Gamers [mailto:gamers-boun...@audyssey.org] On Behalf Of dark > Sent: 21 March 2014 11:27 > To: Gamers Discussion list > Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Wayfar Mud > > Well travis, an interesting fact is that every square of a biome will have > all resources possible in that biome sooner or later because they change > over time. > > I know this because I setup a georadioactive plant in some radioactive > planes, but initially it didn't get any resources to extract, however > later > it was chock full of thermal and radioactive krethasans, so while > exploring > is helpful you will find what your looking for eventually. > > Regarding skills, another considderation is your background and what your > trying to do, sinse if your a botanist say you will be doing lots of > exploring, so will get extra skill points for having exploration skills, > likewise I actually got loads of skillpoints when I bought the crafting > skills first when playing the retiree background which obviously meant > lots > of buildings. > > The only slight weerd thing with the skills is that some of them it's not > clear what they actually do, for example off world operations I've not > worked out at all though I believe it has something to do with robots, > this > is an area where the games help could be improved, though working things > out > for yourself is always a good plan, and at least you can try all the > skills > out as you complete different backgrounds. > > Beware the grue! > > Dark. > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Travis Siegel" <tsie...@lothlorien.nfbcal.org> > To: <gamers@audyssey.org> > Sent: Thursday, March 20, 2014 11:38 AM > Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Wayfar Mud > > >> For those playing wayfare, since there was some discussion here earlier >> about what resources show up on a scan, I've discovered that you can >> pretty much tell what is present just from the descriptions.
