Armory Improvement suggestion

MithicYort

Firstly, this is incredibly low yield and importance. There are certainly much more important fish to fry.

I have been pumping out all the troops. As a human, it seems that the rate limiting factor for me is swords, BY FAR. My requirement for swords is in fact roughly 2.5x per tick more then the next closest piece of armor.

It is for this reason that I am wondering if a mechanic that allowed for more micromanagement of the armory could be beneficial. Perhaps instead of producing 100 of everything, I could choose to produce 600 swords and zero of everything else if I wanted, or any combination of the 6 items.

May your journey be Mithic

MithicYort Oooooooo, I like this idea

Lord Thane

This is a cool idea, maybe add a 24-hour penalty for changing build mode to account for forge "retooling", no build for 24 hours.

MithicYort

Lord Thane This is great. Logical that a forge would require time to change its capabilities. Maybe the penalty could be incremental. No capabilities for a few hours, then an incremental return to full capacity at 24 hours or something.

This is coming from someone who knows nothing about how complicated the code for this would be though. >.<

Gnome loves this one trick.

Imo this would require a rework of forges.

right now I create about 1000 of each weapon type.

if I could cut out the extra chainmail, ponies, and leather armor to redistribute them to planks and slings. At a certain point I don't even want the spears anymore. or I produce them at a stupid low rate. if I could get that to 2500 planks and 2500 slings every tick... or even just 5000 slings if I'm only going to sacrifice and rebuild.

gnomes might get too far ahead in the early game.

idk late night tired ramblings.
