Unless there are any objections, here is the next batch of questions:
- Is it necessary to limit colonies to late game? Why not allow them to appear earlier if evolution happens that way?
- Will the NPCs at the start of the game come from presets, or be procedurally generated. I’m pretty sure at the moment they are procedurally generated, but the wiki says they should be presets.
- Should chances for endocytosis be fixed or summative? Should it always be the same chance (such as 1%) or should that chance increase for each past failure? In the first scenario it’s the most realistic, but also the most frustrating for players who get bad luck. In the latter case, the chance of endocytosing successfully gradually increases with each failed attempt their odds get better (to mitigate very bad luck).
- When bacteria are successfully assimilated, is the corresponding organelle merely unlocked or unlocked and a copy immediately placed in the cell?
- Should interspecies colonies be allowed to form?
- Should rotating your cell not use ATP?
- Can bioluminescent agents exist? Can these agents trigger the light needed for chloroplasts? I feel strange about this because the cell would basically be spending ATP to make the agents only to power their chloroplasts to eventually make ATP. Also I’m not sure if this is based in any real phenomenon.
- Should a player who places an agent secretor get a randomly assigned agent or should they be able to choose the agent to get?
Edit: For clarity try to number your responses to the point you are responding to.
