Paperclips

It was tounge in cheek.... I meant that it's a silly little thing which shouldn't interest me but I can't leave it alone....

(About to hit my one millionth clip)
 
just spent over an hour on this, with occasional glancing at other pages...but not too long, in case I missed something :p

I don't usually spend that long playing any game nowadays let alone a page of text and numbers!
 
I closed it earlier at about 50million as I was just staring at it waiting to get to the next clipper etc :p

thought I'd maybe start again but it's still stored everything I did just not been running...is that because of IP address? or will it reset next time PC restarted?
 
Dunno, I moved from one place to another and it just carried on

If you want to restart, bring up your browser console and type: reset()

That resets the game
 
The last stage is good

A tip is there should really not be any stagnation I had it in the second stage and it’s because my processor vs memory was the wrong balance

Also I invested and left it in there thinking it might be useful had a few hundred billion in the end, it’s not spend every last penny on auto clips etc
 
How do you carry on once you have had the epileptic moment and all your machines get taken away and you are just left with projects / resources and modeling? Everything has stopped apart from my operations?


/edit Nevermind, I have figured it out. 15 Trillion clips and counting. Glad it resumed from where I left it yesterday!

Its useful to put a bit in the investment at low risk and just let it roll over, for example when it comes to the policies that require big numbers of cash
 
What are you mean to do when you get to the space part? I've got probes replicating all day long but my explored space % is still at zero.

When I'd unlocked ~40 trust I was able to pile a load of resources into speed / exploration in the Von Neuman Probe Design - about 8 I think. Doing that in combination with replication meant it went from 0% to 100% exploration in about two minutes.
 
Yeah I just figured out the key to more trust was to win battles

its an exponential thing, you can either have a few probes exploring fast or lots of probes exploring slowly.

personally i find the lots of probes exploring slowly works well, as once you've got a lot more probes than drifters you can reduce the points you've put in combat and spend them on exploration and it just shoots up.
 
Yep deffo best to get more doing less as they grow exponentially which results in more production. You also need the numbers to win in the combats which is the primary hurdle on that level. You need to get the 10 extra probes so you can up the hazard and replication.
 
My available matter has reduced to 0 and I am unable to produce any more clips.

I have 217k harvester drones, 152k wire drones and 131 factories.
I am producing 2922% power performance so thats not the issue.

Am I stuck or can I get out of it? I dont have enough power for space exploration.
