Severe Country Shortages

So when you add country on Tiny Atlas, you get shortage material up to 10T?

More than 10T. These are the remaining shortages I have after resolving some along the week.

If I had taken account of the shortages when I registered, I could provide a breakdown and give a more precise figure, but if you are thinking of moving to TA, I suggest to be prepared to spend at least 20T.

Nice info thx laguna, i need to start stocking resources then.

I looked around before taking a country. This supply situation is very variable. I recommend spending some time on the selection. It seems Laguna may have chosen worst case.

Welcome to Tiny Atlas, hymy!

Wowww

It's not as hard as I thought it'd be. Of course, I should thank all the pioneers who have forged out places before and made it better.

We have seen these shortages and we think that starting conditions on TA are too severe.

we have decided to make changes that will make it easier to start a country on TA.

One changes has already taken place two days ago.

The start population is increased by several millions.
we will increase it even further to 12.000.000 which is twice the previous level.

All countries have a production plant and if it is used, another production plant will be added automatically to enable the construction of more corporations.

Short term changes:

Shortages in countries will be reduced.
some materials will become available in all C3 countries.

In countries with a president:

we will look into a number of materials and in case the shortages are very large, reduce these shortages.

It will not resolve all problems but will make it more reasonable.

Shuttle transports must be set u

The materials situation on TA is more severe than can be concluded from the table at the top of the page.

The table shows products that are being used in the country.

It does not include materials that are used by corporations and must be transported into TA.

Some of these materials are used in large quantities in an each corporation.

these include Electric power, services, hightech services, robotics, and factory maintenance.

Electric, services and HTS are used in large quantities. Direct trading clears these.

Robotics and FMU, no, you can bring a lifetime supply of that on one shuttle.

Now if you want list of things that are needed in large quantities that are a problem.

I'll start that with Stone, furniture, and Oil.

I'm sure others can add more to that list.

You will burn through the Factory Maintenance and Robotics extremely fast, because the resources unique to Tiny Atlas use much higher amounts of these products.

A lot is already implemented.

I see declines in the shortages in C3 countries and some products in all countries.

Population is up.

We will continue to eliminate shortages of materials to allow
for a faster start for countries on TA.

Thanks, Andy.

We have now implemented more functions on TA that will make it easier to
setup a country and build more quickly.

Among the new features:

- The population numbers on TA are now much higher than before.
countries will start at about 11 millions. Nearly double the previous
numbers.
- C3 countries on TA already have much lower shortages in all products.
Some of these shortages will disappear in the coming hours and many more
later today and tomorrow.
- Countries with a president on TA will also receive some products if these
products are in short supply in the country.
About 60 products will be boosted one time if numbers are very small.
If there are sufficient supplies of these products, nothing will be added.

We will place a copy of this message on another discussion on the forum
where TA features are being discussed.
