Commander you mean: "Your minions don't understand it." I'm always amazed by your caring for them, that they learn and shine. For them I'll explain it, of course. If you update a skill, some calculations will be made. While all skills have an immediate effect, Idle Power is the one that has not. But the Idle Power update takes effect with the next created weapon. Meaning next time if you create a weapon, it will tremendously boost you weapon damage - if you invested in this skill.
I asked our lawyers to change the text to prevent future missunderstanding. We don't want to get sued. You would be a great lawyer youself, but I understand you hunger for power. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.
Commander, this is our To-Much-Click prevention system to avoid Sehnenscheidenentzüngung. (I hope I'm using the right word here. In my language Scheibenkleister it's called tendonitis.) I should have known that you Commander are free from any illness. Of course mentaly as well as physically. Therefore and only therefore, I asked our lawyers to see if there is a possibility to change our contracts with the click-workers so that they will do more damage in the future. Since all our workers are enslaved ... err ... very motivated, in the future the click will do more damage. But at first we need to deal with some Explorers that are traveling through the galaxy. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

Tell me why I am getting a warning about game's domain "starbackplanetdestroyer.artipy.com.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com" that tells me that this domain has a possibility of hacking me.
Commander, that is because in real this is not a simulation. In real this is a hacking tool. I wanted that you can controll more territories and sometimes you need to use extreme measures. But oh, Commander this was never intended to get detected. Can you tell me in a PM who told you that. Not for punishing this guy but for a friendly chat. Maybe there is a reason why she or he only speaks of a possibility. It better to work with hard facts. But strange it is indeed. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.
Commander, I never reset your progress. It was the simulation itself. I think our lawyers used the new law-book-feature to cick some scientists asses. But somehow this AI must have gained self-controll and resetted everything. In an extrem counter effort I asked our lawyers to sign a deal with no immediate benefit. Well, even though the function is there. I just hid it so well, that not even you can find it. I'm a little bit proud of myself, but only a little bit. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

Corporal, it's too bad we don't have an XP ratio per second, maybe you can add it. Also, please add the "plus-value" for weapon : I don't really remember if I did some upgrades for weapons, so when I sacrifice scientists for nothing, I'm mad :) IE add a +XXX for damage, power and quality, before we do the upgrade. Thanks !
Commander I'm amazed everytime you tell me you want more information. I have problems remember my age. But you ... your demand is unmatched. How do you do that? How do you remember all these things. I'll see if somehow I can fulfill your demand. I can't promise this will happan soon. But please don't be mad at me. Rather be mad at these scientist. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

Thanks for the updated simulator corporal, I arrived in planet 100 again but I hit a invisible wall (aka Time for prestige), happy for the new scientist but kinda miss the old ones (better weapons, more deaths), so what we should do next?
Commander, I guess you mean the XP-levels. I hope you do. If not, pleas do not punish me ... again. You are just testing me, right. Of course you know that these give a slight benifit to you weapon damage. See, you don't need to worry I know my simulation well. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

Corporal, should I be worried that my minions are way better at killing when I'm not watching them? Are they deliberately acting incompetent in my presence?
Commander, of course not!!. The reason why they don't work as productive if you are here is ... that you are here. They bow down before you, praise you, worship you. All these minions are just weaklings, that can only do one thing at a time. If you are away they have nothing to bow down. Therefore there is more time for them to get punished ... err ... work harder. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

with the new deterministic set up, I'm not seeing any benefit at all of upgrading the quality % enhancer. It changes nothing. Only the base power seems to matter for the moment...
Commander, I guess you are demanding the deep mathematical knowledge here. I know you understand everything and will be disappointed if I give you a simple formular here. But since not only you, but also your minions need to learn, it indeed has an effect as you can see here: BaseDmg = Power * (Base Quality + ScientistQuality). In fact, this new calculated damage need to be bigger than the current damage. Only then you created a new weapon. I'm sure you know that and I hope your minions will understand that, too. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

So if you Upgradet once with 6k Scientist (low Planet was running all night) it got me like a +100% Quality and now it seems i can´t get any new Weapon. I´m at planet 67 and won´t get any Progress anymore. Tryed getting a new Weapon with 100,300 and 1k Scientist no chance. Seems like i need above 6k Scientists now for every upgrade
Commander, Congratulations!! You reached the point we call prestiging-turning point. Now it makes sense to prestige. But I have to say sorry three times: Sorry, sorry, sorry!!! Our lawers team is a bit slow. Faulpelz-Prime (aka Prestiging-System) is not ready to sign the deal. So you need to wait a little longer. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.
Commander, you praise me?! Of course I earned this. No disucussion here. I guess you agree. Nonetheless I'm very happy that you teached me a new word. You know my native language is Scheibenkleister and I needed to check it. At first I thought you were angree about me, since it was neighter in my active nor in my inactive vocabulary. But I used our tool http://translate.faulpelz.universe and realised that 'Good' is a positive word. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

So click damage dies out pretty quickly. I'm level 36 with 38 click upgrades on planet 27 and do 0 kills per click, on the other hand my autoclick which is also level 38 is doing 13T kills/second. In the beginning of the game click had some power but i have to go down at least 15 planets for manual clicks to do anything again
Commander, please check if you got your Engineers (hover over the Faulpelz-Prime button.) If you tested the simulation and now have 60 Engineers - everything works as intended. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

Great start. I like the game. Please add a feature where the game checks in periodically to see if there is an update and then displays a notification somewhere in game that a new versions exists so we can refresh and get it! Especially if a reset happens as a result!
Commander, I should have known it. But as always, I underestimated your possibility to spot the slightest visual information. My ... err ... your engineers told me due to the current technology we are using, this might get problematic. Did I mentioned it's YOUR enginieers not mine. I told them to try - I begged them. But they used their engineering slang and told something about caching and static data and not dynamic adaption and currently better to make a system robust first. I told them it was you who demanded it but they just said: If we do it we do it right and right now we do it not. They were very rude. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

Something's strange about the way scientists addition to quality is calculated. I came back after about 10 hours offline and had 12,000 or so scientists. Their listed value for increasing quality was less than 2000. After I killed them all, at 1899 scientists, their listed value for quality is above 35,000. Do the numbers somehow go negative at a point?
Commander, it's not the way that is strange it these scienitst. I think since they used the showers on Planet No. 111, they behaved very wierd. Maybe there was something in the water. After some discussion with your lawyers they happily aggreed to go back to work sober. Since I asked them friendly to work more careful they don't do experiments any longer. Either this was helping or the fact that some Special Forces threatened to ... talk to their families. As a result in the latest version (0.2.43) of your simulation the successrate is calculated much more predictable. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

I still don't get what the offline bonus does. In other games you get a % of what you get when the game is open, in that cases the max bonus is 100%. English is not my first language, so maybe i just dont understand something.
Commander, English is not my navtive language as well. This is Scheibenkleister. Maybe our writers did a bad job and did not explain the offline bonus well. I'm very proud that you ask a Corporal. Here is my answer: Yes, you do earn more by beeing offline than by beeing online. The bonus as added on top of the usual income. In fact it does make sense to come back after a while. This is due to our mathematical discrete optimization team. It was optimizing the hell out of our simulation. The result is: When you are away, your team will earn more than when you are being online. This by the way has nothing to do with your leadership skill, realy. This is just to train your decision making, since you need to calculate when is the best time to come back and update vs. stay offline. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

Regarding the scientist negotiation problem Corporal, perhaps you can motivate the new team to sign the contracts by kidnapping their families and threatening to throw them into the cold void of space. Should help matters tremendously. Anyway good work so far with everything.
Commander, your creative problem solving is unmatched. Of course I tried this one already with the curent team and it seems to work quite fine. In the next contract our scientist will do their work differently. On the other hand I have to admit, that these solutions only work for short term. Since the current science team will only stay for a limited time, that works quite fine for now. And it is even fun. For the new team I have to say, I want to go another way and treat them a little better. Sounds strange I know, but I read in a book that being friendly might help to increase motivation. But at first I need to read the book "How to be a nice dictator". Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.
Commander, I heared from Commander tibor89 that he had a similar problem. He was working for a very secret organization called Order 66. So he wanted to leave no traces in the history. We were looking into that issue and figured out that Firefox was giving problems in the History settings. If that is the case for you as well, there are three possible solution our developer team figured out: a) Use “Remember History” in the settings b) use another browser c) wait for the cloud save. Only the last solution is fixable by our team. Unfortunately our lawers are busy kicking some science asses and preparing the negotation deal with Faulpelz prime (aka premium feature). So our resources are limited and my advice is to use a) or b). Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

Haven't even started playing yet, but I had to say that I LOVE the way you set up the Patch Notes and the 'coming-soon' text on features not yet in game. It's very cool :3
Commander you intellect is inmatched in the known universe. I guess this was not a question. You where teaching your minions, right? I also expect you are teaching your minions what a bonus is. So that they learn the difference between 101% bonus and 101% base. I'm always surprised by your didactic ingenuity. Your minions will be the best. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

I'm not sure but it would appear weapons aren't updating unless quality % increases, whereas my power has substantially increased, and even a poor roll on quality should yield a better weapon. Maybe I'm just consistently unlucky.
Commander, like Commander ReverendDel suggested we threatened some of the scientist to work harder. I can tell you this was helping tremendously. Even this is just a short solution and the deal with our scientist will end soon. It will help the last days to make a little easier. Our lawers are working to update the deal wihtin the next days.

Hey, commander reporting, I need to say thanks for hiding my name, but just for security reasons can you call me Dysthe from now on?, also remind me that the bathrooms from planet 68 are quite weird to use, after using your advise we got a lot of new scientist (that actually died after a bit) and a Great new weapon of mass destruction, that's all, we seek to reach planet 90 before the end of the week.
Commander Dysthe, I'm more than sure, you will exceed planet level 90. And as small motivation I can tell you: The unisex bathrooms on planet 111 are marvelous. I always stay their for an extra ... shower. And if you really want to have fun: check the extraterrestrial sleeping rooms on planet 150!! Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

Hmm... All the failed attempts at Weapons R&D are getting frustrating. Especially when I'm sacrificing 3000+ scientists on each attempt.

Just be happy that our welcomed committee lets everybody it's free will: Die or join. A binary choice - very easy - very effective. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

My scientist seem to be failing a lot recently so I've decided to kill them all and set an example to future ones. Also I would like to see an option to choose the success rate of scientist by lowering the quality increase so that they may be able to actually succeed once for a change. Let me know your opinion on that one corporal.
Private First Class, I gave up on the current team. At the beginning they seemed so motivated. It was nice working with them. But out of nothing they became upset. They said we don't want to die any longer. They want better working conditions. I don't understand them. It was all in their contract they agreed to all of this. But now *shaking head*. Sometimes they refuse to work and won't create new weapons. They maundered something about human rights. Well, at least as stated several times: I'm are looking for a new team. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

The upgrade to saving the scientist are useless for at least 30 levels, as it doesn't save enough scientist for it to be worth it. I'm just putting points into it when it's cheap, not because it gives any returns on investment.
Commander, lets agree that these stupid scientist are useless at ANY level. That is the exact reason why I'm in a negotiation process with a completely new team. I can't make to much promise right now. But I can say, one team I found is interested in taking the job. Of course they have some demands on their side. We have our demands. So, we are in the middle of finding an agreement. Unfortunately this will take a while till we can sign the new deal. But I keep you up to date and give a note once the new team signs the contract. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

A couple suggestions after running the simulation for a few days. 1)The autoclick speed needs a different formula for advancement. Perhaps increasing current speed by X% instead of Base Speed by 5%. Jumping from 400% to 405% feels like a waste of slaves. Also Manual Click is completely pointless past Planet No. 8 or so. Reading 0 killed/click no matter how much it's upgraded.
Commander that makes me very nervous, since on the all the test devices saving works quite fine. Of course I can't test all the 1337 Quattuorquinquagintaquadringentillion devices this simulation is running on. So please Commander tell me with a PM what is your System (browser+version, operating system). I want to help you prepare for your conquering. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

Corporal, it seems some people don't get that this is merely a simulation, and therefore it makes perfect sense that the planets are repopulated instantaneously. How else are we to research new and more effective methods for slaughter, destruction, and enslavement?
Wisest Commander of them all. You are right .. soooo right. This simulation is to train you with all the different techniques and you know that. I'd say rtfm . But YOU not only read the fabulous manual, you also understood it. It is a pleasure to work with you Commander. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

I don't understand how the population of this planet, being exterminated, is up to its previous value every few seconds. The game has no explanation or briefing.
Commander this is not a game. It's serious - a serious simulation. But I understand that your not so smart minions also need to understand you great plans to conquer the known universe. For them, and only for them, I'll aks our writers to make an explanation. But since your simulation is currently a beta version it might take a while. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

Commander Dysthe reporting, Today we got anything new, we conquisted the planet N.30 in a mark of 1 minute with the new weapon made by two (2) scientist (Awful ones by the way, the died after the experiment), and even a team of twelve (12) scientist couldn't replicate the weapon, Oh, another thing, we upgrade the scientist tracker to Mark Thirty (30) and even now is useless unless we go back to less populated planets, end of report.
Commander you did good to let them die after the experiment. Did you suck their blood? I won't tell anyone that you are the very first of Dracula. (You know 000 ist a one for programmers, but whom, o whise commander, am I telling that?) My advise is to go back to older planets since our trackers need the energy of a destroyed planet to work. Meaning you need to destroy a planet to have a chance to find a scientist. But let them die as you already did. That is what they deserve. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

corporal tutnix there seems to be an issue with click damage. my click damage is 85 billion but auto click damage is 6 quadrillion. maybe something like a research building where i can research more stuff like percentage of auto damage to click damage or buff it to do more damage.
just need more stuff in the game and it would make it a lot better
thanks for the great game corporal.
Commander, as always you can read my minds. Astonishing. The engineers are working towards a new version of the simulation unfortunately they are a little slower than expected but I heard the final results will blow your mind. Let's hope the contract workers will do their job as they promised. ... You rememember these stupid scientist? The new team will be better ... I heard.

So, You kill all the people on the planet; then, all of a sudden they get resurrected and you have to kill them all again. Makes sense.
Commander I understand you want to leave traces of your glorious battles. Battles that will go into history books. I totally agree that this will help you be remembered even in centuries. This is a great idea. Unfortunately I can't do that in the moment since these stupid scientists still insist on their current contract.

Commander, I checked this issue and one of our graceful engineers told me this might happen if your computer is a very fast one. If planets are destroyed faster than a weapons refresh you might experience this problem. But you said this also happens if you don't destroy a planet in a second. In that case I need to ask you: Do you still get your resources from the planet? Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.

Huge boost with a new weapon after the change to research. Am curious how long it will take to gather enough scientists to do it again.
Commander, I knew that this would happen. They know that they will be replaced by another scientist team some time in the future. Now they are completely insane. Be glad that you only see what they did during weapons creation. Yesterday as I checked they where dancing naked on the table and played ice-billard. My advice is: be happy for the boost and hope that the other team will do a better job. Sincerely Corporal Tutnix.
Commander, of course I mean Glaxy. But not in this context I must admit. Glaxy is our First Prime Minister on Faulpelz Prime. She is GTO - Global Technical Officer.
