In the rich list, it only shows money, is it possible to change it to show cash + the current market balue of all goods, ore minerals etc.
This might stop market distortions caused by people trying to hide how rich they are buy buying out ore for example and making new players lives difficult. |

99+ day(s) ago | Actually I like GalacticMercenaries idea of just getting rid of it, nice and easy.
I was trying to suggest easy changes. |

99+ day(s) ago | It would be really not-smart tho. Because A person will have the idea of how much liquid vs capital you have, and that`s just a bad idea lol |

99+ day(s) ago | Agreed Rag, maxing out on minerals, ore, etc. over cash has to be done on RT. This isn`t something I would code into a game as it is pretty easy to tell who has more of other stuff than cash. Grand Dineros and major Dineros alone can wipe your cash beyond the max 1 tril easily and has been abused primarily for UWs, before they actually even start. Honestly, you shouldn`t have to disclose all of your assets in a game otherwise you would also need to track down people who have excess stockpiles in the market as well. That would be a huge coding/tracking thing plus the additional server resources to constantly refresh that list every what 15 mins? Not sure if it makes sense |

99+ day(s) ago | But seriously, this sort of thing is hard coded into the game, and BW/EE need to worry about a long laundry list of other things before worrying about something this.
Plus, people buy ore NOT to hide how rich they are, but in order to protect that wealth from major/grand dineros that can make 10% of your cash disappear at the drop of a hat! That, and there is an upper limit to how many credits you can actually have.
Also, part of the reason the markets are always empty (on RT) is because of price controls combined with the hyper-inflationary environment that is RT. So if you really want to fix things on RT, there should be an upper limit to how much cash you can actually lose from a major or grand dinero, combined with a removal of the credit limit. Then you would increase the maximum price of minerals along with removing (or significantly increasing) the amount of time stuff can stay on the market (until the empire pulls it off the market).
But again, all these things require changes to the hard code, which takes time and effort. So if you got coding skillz and time to devote to a project, by all means contact BW and EE. |
