Architect Archive

hi architect colleagues,

a poor days ago i had an idea, that i now want to realize, so read my idea and if you are interested in it, tell me here, or ingame (Thyrael).

what i want to do, is making an Architect PA for Farstar, not related to a single planet or so, the idea behind is this:

- All people in the PA are sharing work, lots and so on
- Depending on this, we would always be able to craft all needed things very quick.
- The Guild hall would act as a storage room for resources, deeds and so on
- If youre getting orders that you dont like to do atm, or you cant do atm, guild members would help doing that order
- The guild central would be in cragstone /Naboo, if more than one member would be on another planet medium houses would be used there for additional storage rooms
- New members would get a "testing time period", where they dont have access to the storage room. I think that would be needed, so that players wont become guild members to just steal out resources from PA
- i dont want to integrate some kind of exact resource sharing or maintainance cost sharing, this would only increase the time for flying up harvesters.
- weekly meetings to make plans for next week (how will fly upon harvesters on which days, and so on
- i dont like to be the only PA leader, so primary i am searching for 2 more architects to become with me the PA leaders. i think 3 leaders is enough, and not to short for making a democratic system.
- Prices should be the same for all architects in the guild, so they will be discussed with all guild members once, and then weekly if there should be any changes made to them
- The Organisational Structure of the guild will be, the 3 leaders (should be master architect, i will become one in the next few days), then the other master architects, and then the novice architects.
- New Architects (Novice) that like to join the guild will get help from the masters, explanation, and grinding resources, for making walls and so on.
- We can reduce lot usage for factories, cause i think for all members one structure factory per planet would be enough, and one equipment factory.
- Novice Architects inside guild shall only be trained by guild members, primary by other Novices, getting trained by non guild architects will not be accepted.

I feel that realising this idea can become a real big "company" like PA, that would be great job on Farstar. Befor i forget, this PA shall not become a grinding PA, were new architects can quickly become masters and then leaving PA for dropping architect or so, members shall be Architects with full of their heart, and they shall like to be architect for a long long time...

I think you will have your work cut out trying to make this a success, but good luck to you if you decide to try.
I would not expect that established architects on your server are likely to offer you much assistance or to encourage you.

I would like to point out one error in your assumptions, if you think that 1 structure factory per planet will be enough then you haveambitions of insignificance. Most successful solo Masters seem to use at least 2, I for oneuse 3, I would have more if I didn't need the lots.One factory will mean that you will be able to make a batch of a single type ofstructure probably about once every three or four days.

i dont know what u r doing with your factory but i can make about 700 structural modules per day with a factory, that means 70 walls, or in other ways 7 complete large houses per day...

I make harvesters mainly, I make between 100-500 walls a week(1000-5000 structural modules) PLUS 100s of extra structural modules, depending on demand. All these are factory made.
I need 100's of Generator Turbines per week, 100's ofsmall structural storage modules, plus 100's of light ore mining units/ fluid drill pumps/ harvesting mechanisms/ manufacturing mechanisms/ omus/ tfdps/ hhms. All these MUST be factory made.

Then the Harvesters themselves have to be run through a factory, I make at least 200 harvesters a week.
