Thread: Geologist resources findings report in mail

    Geologist resources findings report in mail

    Hello,

    Since to find a new resource with a geologist takes a huge amount of time (hours in case of more advanced resources), I would highly appreciate if a report could be delivered via in-game mail.

    Because when I log-in the next day, it is very uncomfortable to scroll all over the map to check if something had (not) been foud... Frustrating

    Report should be like:
    1. "not found "
    2. "found here" (clickable "hyperlink" - like in case of other ingame notifications...)

    You knew which mines were exhausted before you even sent the geologist, that's why you sent him in the first place! It doesn't take a genious to work out where to check first.

    There are only a limited number of mines over the whole island. If you sent your geologist to find (for example) coal, you'd know which two areas to check without scrolling all over the map. Same thing applies to all the other mines.

    The lazy are getting lazier every day.
    If at first you don't succeed, sky-diving is not for you.

    I think it is not about laziness at all...
    1. One might not know that mines are "replenishing" in the same place all the time. You know that only as an experienced player. And nobody says this behavior could not be changed by developers in the future.
    2. If you are searching for a new resource (for the first time), your genious strategy does not work either - there is no "exhausted mine"

    Dont need more spam sorry.
    The map is small and every deposit is on a set location. So i do not see any vallue in this solution.

    granted it will make it easier for new players, but ythey can find the resource location maps on forum. So for me thats not a valid argument.
    Nevermind I give up
