Post DP's Finished Userbase Guide!
EDIT: Almost finished, just trying to think of any major points I have missed.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1X03 ... dQ34s/edit

FURTHER EDIT: it's just my own guide now. Me and flo are no longer working together.

One thing, you mentioned formatting. I'm assuming this is for the competition, don't worry so much about formatting, when we port it over to the site, a lot of the formatting will be gone.

Don't forget images. =)

Updated with appropriate images. Open to suggestions whether any needed to be removed or added.

Needs more explanation on how Workers work and how to keep them fed (specifically, how much the various ways can cost).

I guess it wouldn't hurt if the grammar was better. Should I make a list?

Also, AI bases are not placed by the admins, they are placed by the universe creation code. It's possible to add more manually, but doing that each uni would just be a nightmare.

Whilst it is true that it is placed by this "code", it is much clearer just to say that Admins placed it. Which is true, since admins wrote the code :P

Well, in that case just say that they are placed randomly(with no reference to who does it), because saying that the admins do it sounds like saying that they do it manually.
