Post subject: | Bad guy with nothing bad to do!? |
So I was playing this infinite-turn game and just messing around. It's my first time playing red and I wanted to experiment with (R)obbing. The net worth of the ports were about 370M (30K sectors, 11.4K ports, 1K days old, MBBS.) Every time I would encounter a port, I would attempt to rob it. Some of these ports were part of XSB/XBS pairs, so you would expect them to have heaps of money. Nope. Most ports were <5K cr. A few ports out of maybe a dozen I would encounter had a few 100K (usually in the 100K-200K range.) Over the course of a few days (I didn't do it exclusively, just whenever I had some time to spare after completing all planned tasks) I found a couple of 500K. I robbed these down with RMR (stealing 10 cr from the other port at a time so it wouldn't run out of money while I hit the big one.) One I encountered was about 1.5M. All of this info was derived by hand (no scripts.) As I said, I was just messing around moving (S)tep so I could test robbing. Is there a systematic way of finding ports with cash? This seems kind of random. I've already played around with Mega-Rob and plan to hit that single port using that instead. What I was hoping to find was a random port able to Mega-Rob right away, but no luck so far. |

Well, it seems to me that manual exploration combined with (S)tep warping allows for some pretty lucrative (R)obbing if the ports have the creds. It's not turn-efficient at all, but it's nostalgic! |
