Turn income

[Freestyle304]

My income just dropped in the last hour or two below my minersx80 and my alert level is still <none>, though I might change it to see the effect.

Any ideas anyone?

[Lord Dougy]

check if ur officers have increased, or that u've changed commanders, or ur commander has changed his settings and finally have u checked ur calculations again...

if all fine then i'm surprised but pm forum or report as bug...

[DUDEY]

did you gain and officer, like had 0 before and left the box ticked, and he snuck in, might be it, that happened to me before lost like 15mill per turn for 10 hours i got anoyed with him for not asking first!

Answer to post above - if he had 1 officer before and now has 10 he would still loose the amount he did if he had 1, 30% to all officers even if they have 1 or 25

EDIT: Just looked you up, and yea you have 1 officer so thats prob the reason lol, tell him to shove off

What a goober I am - you are right - someone added me as CO and I hadn't noticed. Woo - my first officer hehe

Thanks!

Edit: I'm going to be ascending in a couple days - that will be a test of his loyalty

He might just be a sponge, taking your income. you should dismiss him if he has a really crappy UP. This is advice coming from the mouth of a person who never had an officer

A single officer isn't worth it unless s/he's a friend.
Go bulk or Go quality.
Anything else is a sab target for your next spy level.

we all start somewhere...1 officer is a good start

Well, not even sending a message certainly does make him look like simply a leach to be discarded. I sent him a message though - I'm giving him a chance to talk first.

As Shizune said, I have to start somewhere. I wasn't going to add officers until after I ascended next week and built my income up a bit, but if he turns out to be teachable, I might give him a try. Loyalty is also huge, but everyone will claim that - whether it's true or not. Maybe we can start a feedback forum for officers and COs like there is for traders

After all, generic adds in the recruitment forum can't yield great results I would think. I expect to have to test and prune.

And thank you for the advice above and beyond the question I embarrassed myself with!

indeed, you start with one... but I do never accept and unsollicited officer, they need to contact me first, those who don't... got dismissed. If they don't send a message and they are still coming back.. then I deal with them.
you should always have contact with your officers
