well im ready to dump mayor cuz im out of skill points



Even Star Wars movies dont like NGE....

Yoda: Twisted by the Dark Side, young SWG has become. The game we played, gone it is... Consumed by the NGE.
Mace Windu(us): The customers will decide SWG's fate.
Supreme Chancellor(Devs): I *am* the customers!

So this is how liberty is crushed...... by the sound of Tiggs Paws.

I'll miss being a TK

I oppose the NGE and support Holocron Shug and Q-3p0's dream of the way SWG should be!

So we created a system that would allow players to switch professions during the game, and there would be a lot of gameplay around making that change. If you want to go from architect to scout we?ve created a system to make that happen."

You know, I can't believe that it never occured to me that there is no "tangible" in-game "reward" for Mayor.

So while I agree with the original poster and I think this is a cool idea...

I have to agree with the idea that there are much bigger fish to fry.

For me, the biggest issues revolve around needing some way to deal with structures left behind by inactives or griefers.



Yeah, I know my post count is low... that's because I actually play the game instead of "talking" about playing the game. So don't tell me I don't know what I'm talking about just because I don't have 10,000 posts.

At this point, there is no real in game benefit to a politician. It's alot of spent skill points for very little back in return. Other professions can use their skills to make some kind of income, or benefit their character in some way. So unless they offer me something better to do, I wouldn't mind a salary.

This might not be the best thread for this but what the heck, here goes. Where does the money from training go to? I've checked my cities balance several times and then paid for training, that money never shows up there. It costs the city money to hire trainers, shouldn't the city get a cut of that money?

I don't think it goes anywhere, I can't wait for more detailed reports to be implemented. Mos Quito has 20 million in the treasury and I don't know where the hell it's coming from.

This is correct...


The money given to trainers, and the garage do not show up in the city treasury...it just disappears into the game.


I think the devs use it to buy donuts every friday... just a hunch.

Why would it be so hard to get paid from the tresury? Just pick some cash out each week, if you your town cant afford it you already out on weak ice.


Creating money from thin air is not really my idea of a working economi. Everything else is "paid" from the tresury.
