Thread: Bajeezus Petition for...
Well, seeing as how this is already implemented in the shuttles, I dont think this would be a big step and could probably be placed into the same patch as garages..... correct me if Im wrong....
Any chance you could take this up with the big guys Bajeezus?
This is a petition for mayors to get something out of our cloning facilities. Allow us to place a fee on cloning there simialer to the way shuttleport works, but would only have to be done when you clone, so instead of spending 1000 credits to clone, it might cost 1100 and 100 would go to the bank.
Many cities, inluding my own ( Mos Tesla near the Tusken Fort ) could gain a lot from these as the only reason people come to our city for the most part is to clone. We are the only one near the Fort, and it would help fund the city, I mean, if the city is offering services to clone like the shuttle, why can they charge for 1 and not the other?

Bajeezus has already stated that things such as the clone center, mission terminals, and skill trainers are meant as money SINKS, not a way to make money for the city. So the devs will NOT let any of that money kick back to the cities. Doesn't matter how much we whine about it, it won't happen.
This is quite right ... but shuttleports are also both income and sink ... and they are a much higher sink than clone ...
I'd suggest raising maintenance on "usefull" buildings such as Clone and Bank ... lowering maint for gardens and streetlamps ... and giving the city an option to get money from clone or mission terminals ... when using the specialisation clone or job market ... Just don't raise the mission income by 20% ... raise it by 10% and give 10% to the city ... same with clone ... don't reduce the costs as much, but give half the reduction to the city ... then there isn't more money in the game as planed .. but the numbers just make more sense and give cities a lot more roles they can chose to play in this world
I think the money from mission terminal and cloning center should go to the city. Factional bases have this system (a portion of the reward goes to the faction base). If the dev does not want the mayor to "dip in" the treasury... then have a "seperate" treasury gain from civic structuresvs. taxes...
