Post subject:  Debris Field
I was thinking of an idea where every time your planet is attacked it gains debris in it's gravitational space. The debris can be harvested for mineral units, artifact points, and/or research points. Or you can compile the debris into a moon. You need 20,000 Debris on a planet to gain a 5% chance at making a moon. The odds of creating a moon will increase by 1% for every 20,000 debris afterwards (allowing you to get a 14% chance max) The amount of debris generated on a planet during an attack depends on a few factors:

Planetary Resource Production: Whatever the planet's hourly production is divide it by 20 and that's how much debris is generated during an attack
Invader's Unused Mineral/Artifact Points: If an invader has unused mineral/artifact points they have a 70% chance of losing 1% of that amount to the debris field

How much debris a planet can hold depends on it's size:
Very Tiny: 2,500 Debris
Tiny: 5,000 Debris
Very Small: 7,500 Debris
Small: 10,000 Debris
Average: 15,000 Debris
Large: 20,000 Debris
Very Large: 25,000 Debris
Massive: 50,000 Debris
Very Massive: 75,000 Debris
Colossal: 125,000 Debris
Mega Colossal: 200,000 Debris

If you successfully create a moon then depending on the amount you used you will get either small moon, large moon, and even a new barren planet with stats at Size - Very Large, Mining - Very Rich - Mega Rich.

If you successfully create a moon and:

If you use 20,000 Debris, your moon odds are: 95% Small Moon, 5% Large Moon
Use 25,000 Debris, your moon odds are: 93% Small Moon, 7% Large Moon
Use 30,000 Debris, your moon odds are: 91% Small Moon, 9% Large Moon
Use 35,000 Debris, your moon odds are: 89% Small Moon, 11% Large Moon
Use 100,000 Debris, your moon odds are: 63% Small Moon, 30% Large Moon, 7% Planet
Use 155,000 Debris, your moon odds are: 41% Small Moon, 45% Large Moon, 14% Planet
Use 200,000 Debris, your moon odds are: 30% Small Moon, 50% Large Moon, 20% Planet

For every 5,000 Debris you use after 20,000 Debris, your odds of getting a small moon decrease by 2%, and your odds of getting a large moon increase by 2%.

What do you think?

I'm not quite sure what you mean? You get debris for every attack as in every time someone clicks the attack button, or each time someone attempts an invasion?

I'm not too sure about the idea to tell you the truth, I can't see any major holes in it, but I don't get excited over it either.

I'm pretty sure Darth will find some flaw in my idea (as he does with all my ideas).

people would be paying people from other legions to attack their planets so you can create moons.. takes money away from the reality transfuser purchase.. so while in theory I think its a cool idea .. too much room for abuse .. and too little incentive for game developer to do this as it would hurt his income..

You have a small chance at successfully creating a moon. 23% chance at max, and the reality transfuser just doesn't award moons. It awards various permanent bonuses. (Planetary Rings, Lush Biosphere etc.) The reality Transfuser guarantees you'll get a permanent bonus whereas this awards less than a quarter chance. People are also drawn away from spending GP on the Transfuser because the chance that you get small moons on a planet. Planets can also be taken from you which discourages people from using it on planets that aren't invincible. The transfuser can only be used on planets that don't have a permanent effect already. So if someone has a permanent effect other than moons, then they will go for this idea too.

It would take a lot of energy (depending on the planet) to produce enough debris to get a planetary moon. Let's say if you're planet is producing about 400 Resources per hour. And every time they hit you it puts 5% of that amount PLUS 1% of their unused artifact/mineral units. So at 20 debris a pop and you need 20,000 debris to get a 5% chance at a moon you would need about 1,000 hits, or 5,000 energy. That's a lot of clicking. Not to mention how much CTP/KU/EM it would cost for doing that.

Plus people would only do this on planet's worth getting it for. And I doubt someone is gonna pass up the chance to take a decent planet from them. So that kinda defeats the whole purpose of paying legions to attack your planet.

Hardee har har... :?



Clangeddin beat me to it. Reality transfusers. Also, how hard would it be to find a random crappy planet belonging to an inactive player to beat up for a bit every rank? Wouldn't take very long to gather the materials.
