BASICS
|
|
.s1
|
|
SEA - Sea sectors form natural barriers that can
|
|
only be crossed by ships or spanned by bridges.
|
|
You can't designate anything else to be sea,
|
|
nor can sea be designated to be anything else.
|
|
.s1
|
|
MOUNTAIN - Mountain sectors form another natural
|
|
barrier that cannot be redesignated; however, they can be
|
|
moved through, at great expense in terms of mobility.
|
|
In a pinch, mountains can be used as capital. They generate
|
|
very few BTUs, and represent being 'holed up in the mountains',
|
|
perhaps like Pancho Villa.
|
|
Mountains typically hold only 1/10th of the civilians and
|
|
uncompensated workers that other sectors do.
|
|
.s1
|
|
SANCTUARY - Sanctuary sectors are created when
|
|
a new nation is created.
|
|
They are inviolate in that no one can attack or harm them.
|
|
This protection ends
|
|
when the new country first moves out of the sanctuary.
|
|
This is called \*Qbreaking sanctuary\*U. See \*Qinfo break\*U for
|
|
details.
|
|
.s1
|
|
WASTELAND - This is the result of the explosion of a nuclear device.
|
|
Wastelands are uninhabitable forever.
|
|
.s1
|
|
WILDERNESS - Most of the world is wilderness
|
|
at the beginning of the game.
|
|
Wilderness has no particular attributes;
|
|
you will probably want to
|
|
designate it as something else once you own it.
|
|
.s1
|
|
PLAINS - Plains sectors form another natural barrier that cannot
|
|
be redesignated. They can be occupied and moved through however.
|
|
Plains typically hold only 1/10th of the civilians and
|
|
uncompensated workers that other sectors do.
|
|
.s1
|
|
CAPITAL/CITY - These sectors can serve as your capital. You'll be
|
|
quite helpless without a capital, as many commands require you to have
|
|
one. Your capital is also your source of bureaucratic time units
|
|
(BTUs), see \*Qinfo BTU\*U.
|
|
A nation may only have one active capital at a time, although many
|
|
sectors may be designated as capitals. Use the capital command to
|
|
make a capital the active one.
|
|
The capture of a capital has disastrous consequences, which are
|
|
described in \*Qinfo capital \*U.
|
|
Capitals are typically better at defending against attack than other
|
|
sectors, except fortresses.
|
|
.s1
|
|
PARK - Parks are provided solely for the convenience of the
|
|
people.
|
|
Parks require construction materials to provide maintenance
|
|
services and
|
|
add to a nation's \*Qhappiness\*U level.
|
|
.s1
|
|
.ce
|
|
COMMUNICATIONS
|
|
.s1
|
|
HIGHWAY - Moving stuff through sectors costs mobility. Efficienct
|
|
highways cost much less than other sectors. To find out more about
|
|
moving stuff, start with \*info Transportation\*.
|
|
.s1
|
|
RADAR - Radar stations can scan the surrounding
|
|
area, and generate
|
|
a radar plot identifying sector types at distances up to 1/3
|
|
their range and ships up to a distance depending on ship visibility.
|
|
.s1
|
|
BRIDGE HEAD - Bridge heads are the land based ends of bridges.
|
|
They let you build bridge spans; see \*Qinfo build\*U for how.
|
|
If option EASY_BRIDGES is enabled, any sector can build bridges, not
|
|
just bridge heads.
|
|
.s1
|
|
BRIDGE SPAN - A bridge span is the suspended part of a bridge that
|
|
crosses water sectors. Bridge spans are built and supported by bridge
|
|
heads and are much like highways except for two things:
|
|
.br
|
|
(1) Bridge spans must maintain at least 20% efficiency or else they
|
|
collapse.
|
|
.br
|
|
(2) If the only bridge head supporting a particular bridge span is
|
|
redesignated as something else, the bridge span will collapse, unless
|
|
option EASY_BRIDGES is enabled.
|
|
.s1
|
|
BRIDGE TOWER - Bridge towers are like bridge heads you can build
|
|
out in the ocean. They are only available if option BRIDGETOWERS is
|
|
enabled. You build bridge towers from a bridge span into open water,
|
|
not adjacent to any land or other bridge towers. From a bridge tower,
|
|
you can build other bridge spans.
|
|
Bridge towers must maintain at least 20% efficiency or else they
|
|
collapse.
|

|
FINANCIAL
|
|
.s1
|
|
BANK - Banks are used for smelting and storing gold bars.
|
|
They include a smelter to refine gold dust into gold bars.
|
|
While the bars are stored in the bank the busy little bankers
|
|
invest them and return a profit on their use.
|
|
Banks are of the Fort Knox variety; they are more impervious to shelling
|
|
than most other sectors, and military in them fight harder
|
|
against attack as those in industries.
|
|
Banks are also particularly adept at moving gold bars around;
|
|
fewer mobility units
|
|
are required to move a gold bar from a bank than from an ordinary sector.
|
|
.s1
|
|
.ce
|
|
INDUSTRIES
|
|
.s1
|
|
DEFENSE - Defense plants turn construction materials into guns.
|
|
Guns are required to equip fortresses, warships, some land units and
|
|
for sector flak.
|
|
.s1
|
|
SHELL INDUSTRY - These sectors are similar to defense
|
|
plant sectors except they turn construction materials into
|
|
shells.
|
|
Most of anything that goes boom expends shells in the process.
|
|
.s1
|
|
MINE - Mines produce iron ore by digging it out of the ground.
|
|
Iron is required to make construction materials.
|
|
.s1
|
|
GOLD MINE - Gold mines are similar to ordinary
|
|
mines, except that they produce gold dust.
|
|
Gold dust is required to make gold bars, which are an important source
|
|
of income.
|
|
.s1
|
|
URANIUM MINE - Uranium mines are very similar to gold
|
|
mines, except that they produce radioactive materials.
|
|
.s1
|
|
HARBOR - Harbors combine shipyard facilities and docks.
|
|
This is where you build ships; see \*Qinfo build\*U for how. Harbors
|
|
also repair incomplete or damaged ships, provided there's enough work
|
|
and materials.
|
|
Harbors are good at moving commodities, and are often used as
|
|
distribution centers.
|
|
.s1
|
|
WAREHOUSE - Warehouses are used to store commodities. They are good
|
|
at moving commodities, and are often used as distribution centers.
|
|
.s1
|
|
AIRFIELD - This is where you build planes; see \*Qinfo build\*U for
|
|
how. Airfield also repair incomplete or damaged planes, provided
|
|
there's enough work and materials. Planes can take off and land at
|
|
airfields. Some can take off and land in other sectors as well, and
|
|
some can also use carriers; see \*Qinfo Plane-types\*U for details.
|
|
.s1
|
|
AGRIBUSINESS - These sectors are large farms and provide food.
|
|
Agribusiness sectors produce much more food than other sectors.
|
|
.s1
|
|
OIL - Oil fields produce oil by pumping it out of the ground.
|
|
.s1
|
|
REFINERY - Refineries produce petroleum by processing oil.
|
|
.s1
|
|
LIGHT - Light manufacturing plants produce light construction materials
|
|
from iron.
|
|
.s1
|
|
HEAVY - Heavy manufacturing plants produce heavy construction materials
|
|
from iron.
|
|
.s1
|
|
.ce
|
|
MILITARY / SCIENTIFIC
|
|
.s1
|
|
FORTRESS - Fortresses are military strongpoints, resistant to attack,
|
|
adept at counter-attack. They can fire guns (unless option
|
|
NO_FORT_FIRE is enabled), and they repair damaged land units, provided
|
|
there's enough work and materials.
|
|
.s1
|
|
TECHNOLOGY - Technical centers are bastions
|
|
of \*Qpure\*U technology research,
|
|
which is to say universities with massive defense department grants.
|
|
They turn construction materials
|
|
into technological advances thereby raising the technology
|
|
level of the country (which affects gun ranges, pollution, etc.).
|
|
.s1
|
|
RESEARCH - The research lab is a bastion of \*Qpure\*U medical research,
|
|
which is to say it is a large university
|
|
with massive March-of-Dimes funding.
|
|
The research lab turns construction materials into medical
|
|
discoveries which raise the research level of the country and
|
|
help retard the spread of disease (usually caused by the pollution
|
|
from technical centers).
|
|
.s1
|
|
NUCLEAR - The nuclear lab is a bastion of applied technology,
|
|
which is to say it is an immense underground building filled with
|
|
evil geniuses playing Adventure on huge computers.
|
|
You can build nuclear weapons here; see \*Qinfo build\*U for how.
|
|
.s1
|
|
LIBRARY/SCHOOL - The library/school sector is the foundation
|
|
of a country's educational structure.
|
|
It uses up construction materials to produce units of education
|
|
which raise the educational
|
|
level of the country, which in turn affects the efficiency of research
|
|
and
|
|
technology sectors.
|
|
.s1
|
|
ENLISTMENT - The enlistment sector is the boot camp of Empire.
|
|
It converts civilians into military.
|
|
Unlike the other production sectors,
|
|
it can use only military as workforce for that.
|
|
.s1
|
|
HEADQUARTERS - This is where you build land units; see \*Qinfo
|
|
build\*U for how. Headquarters also repair incomplete or damaged land
|
|
units, provided there's enough work and materials. They also give a
|
|
bonus to reaction radius for units deployed there,
|
|
allowing them to defend better.
|
|
.s1
|
|
Production takes place automatically at the update,
|
|
at a rate dependent on the efficiency of the sector,
|
|
your production efficiency for that product,
|
|
the presence of the required materials,
|
|
and the number of workers in the sector. \*Qinfo Products\*U has
|
|
more.
|
|
.s1
|
|
The \*Qshow\*U command can be used to show special things about sector
|
|
types. To check out build costs, you do:
|
|
.EX show sect build
|
|

|
|
Cost to des is the cost to designate the sector type. This is charged when you
|
|
give the designate command.
|
|
.s1
|
|
Cost for 1% efficiency is the $$ cost per point of efficiency built.
|
|
Lcms/hcms for 1% are similar.
|
|
.s1
|
|
Sectors that cost nothing to designate and just $1 per point of
|
|
efficiency are not shown.
|
|
.s1
|
|
The show command also shows infrastructure build costs.
|
|
Infrastructure is additional facilities you can build up in your
|
|
sectors. See \*Qinfo Infrastructure\*U for details.

The two mob cost columns show the relative cost to move through such
|
|
sectors at 0% and 100% efficiency. It changes linearly between 0% and
|
|
100%.
|
|
.s1
|
|
Combat strength is multiplied by sector offensive factor on attack and
|
|
defensive factor on defense. Columns max off and def show them for
|
|
100% efficiency. They're always 1 for 0%, except for mountains, where
|
|
the 0% defensive factor is 2. Both factors change linearly between 0%
|
|
and 100%.
|
|
.s1
|
|
Some sector types are more adept at moving certain commodities: the
|
|
mobility cost is divided by a packing bonus.
|
|
.s1
|
|
Column max pop shows how many civilians and uncompensated workers the
