ALPHA 0.10.5: Percent Complete
I
apologize for the lengthy wait between updates. I've had the time to
work with contributors on GitHub and create a little content myself
lately, but not much to support a public actual update. That means
there's quite a bit of new stuff here that's built up since 0.10.4,
including quite a few really nice quality of life improvements from
contributors.
This
update makes a small change to the disposition of slaves' children,
which is based on a player suggestion that I thought did a good job of
addressing player feedback on having all children born to the PC's
slaves remanded to slave orphanages, while also keeping depiction of
underage characters out of the game. It's now possible to pay to have
slaves' children raised as citizens, or schooled privately. Both
child-rearing options remain completely offscreen, as before. Their only
in-game impact is their cost, their understandably major impact on the
slave mother's opinion of the player, and their predictable reputational
effects with Paternalists and Degradationists.
I
would like to emphasize that the game does not track the children in
any way, meaning that the child-rearing and the associated expenses have
no end date. This would occur after a monstrous 936 turns if I were to
depict it, however, so I don't think it's a serious deficiency. If I had
the free year, the team, the art budget, and the requisite insanity to
create Free Cities 2, I'd probably set the turn length at two to six
months, to allow simulation of slave breeding and succession within a
reasonable number of turns. There are definitely some other fun
long-term ideas this would allow, as well. But that's air castle
building. FC is meant to depict a moment in history and the PC's role in
it, for a couple of years, and the weekly turns work well for that.
