When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay.

Chapter 504 Class A War Criminals!

Although he was still confused, since the park manager was so sure, Chen Tingquan didn't say anything more.

Just continue to perform his duties as head of state.

Although Zhuge Jun had already completed the game, he still couldn't figure out what the park manager was doing. This aroused his curiosity and he continued to watch.

Soon, this industrial zone was established according to the plan of the park manager.

At first glance, it makes sense.

From mines to smelters to manufacturing plants to warehouses, these buildings are all organized in an orderly manner.

The park manager is indeed a veteran player of this game. His production line is impeccable, and it can even be said to have an industrial aesthetic.

On the other hand, it looks horrible because right next to this production line is a whole row of living units for the silicon-based little people.

These residential units are built right within the contamination range of the production line.

In theory, these residential units can be stacked to form several floors, or built a little further away, away from the pollution range of the production line.

But the park manager seemed to have done it on purpose and built them all close to each other without any stacking.

Although these residential units are cheapest if only the first floor is built without stacking them up, it also wastes space. Isn't it necessary to save even this little bit?
Zhuge Jun felt that he was even more confused.

Not only that, the outrageous actions of the park managers continue:

He began to build hospitals, cemeteries and crematoriums around here.

And these buildings were obviously not what should have been built in the early days.

Most players will only build the smallest and most basic hospital, which is enough for the needs. As for cemeteries and crematoriums, they are completely unnecessary.

Because even if there is no cemetery, players can choose to drag these silicon-based people directly outside the city and find a place to bury or burn them.

In the early stages of the comet's development, these silicon-based people had a very high tolerance level, so doing this would not have any adverse effects.

Buildings such as cemeteries and crematoriums do not have particularly important functions in themselves. They only enhance the happiness and satisfaction of the silicon-based people within a certain range.

The happiness and satisfaction of the silicon-based people will, to a certain extent, determine their support for the consuls and the head of state.

In general, most players regard these two types of buildings as some kind of face-saving projects to improve support, and usually only consider constructing them in the middle and late stages.

But the park supervisor was also built in the early stage.

This made the audience very confused. What on earth was he going to do?
Finally, as time went by, Chen Tingquan gradually figured out the trick behind it.

"Could it be that...Brother Yuan, you deliberately let them live in the polluted area?

“Isn’t this a bit too outrageous?”

Chen Tingquan looked at everything that was happening before his eyes and was so shocked that he didn't know what to say.

The pollution in the industrial area is indeed serious, and in the absence of purification equipment, the health of these silicon-based little people continues to decline.

However, this level of pollution will not cause their bodies to collapse all at once.

In the game, silicon-based people also have a lifespan. From youth, middle age to old age, the growth trajectory of each silicon-based person can be clearly traced.

Therefore, how to better promote population growth is also a science for players.

Since the silicon-based people still have a relatively long old age period, how to solve the aging problem has always been a headache for players.

Either pass a bill to allow silicon-based people to continue working in factories in their old age;

Either develop technology to provide some jobs that can be done in old age;
Or we can simply keep these silicon-based elderly people in sanatoriums or retirement homes. Although this does not create value, it can improve people's satisfaction.

But no matter which approach is adopted, there will be corresponding problems.

For example, if these silicon-based veterans are allowed into the factory, their work efficiency will be slower and the product yield rate may also decrease.

If we don’t use them, this group of people will be difficult to deal with and the labor will be wasted; if we use them, it will affect the original production efficiency.

In short, it is a bit like the aging problem in reality. Although there are many ways to solve it, none of them is perfect.

Previously, after careful calculation, most players chose the second path, which was to deliberately choose some technological points that could better unleash the productivity of the silicon-based elders, and let them work in these factories.

Although the initial investment is not small, once it stabilizes, every batch of elderly people can move in, so it is still cost-effective.

But it is clear that the park manager has a completely different idea.

He had no intention of seeing the appearance of the Silicon-based old man!
Due to pollution problems in industrial areas, the health of these silicon-based people will gradually deteriorate, but this deterioration is like smoking. The early effects are not so obvious and will only appear in middle age and old age.

Although these silicon-based little people have been working in a polluted area from the beginning, which has significantly reduced their satisfaction, the park manager still built many public buildings for them!

Like hospitals, cemeteries, crematoriums and the like.

In the game "Star Project", there will be additional weighting for building these public facilities in the early stage of the game.

Because there are fewer supplies in the early stages and the silicon-based people's requirements are relatively low, building a public facility will definitely win more people's hearts; but with the increase of supplies in the mid-term, the consciousness of the silicon-based people has gradually awakened, so building a public facility will not make them grateful, and they will think that this is what the consul should do.

The park manager seized this mechanism and built hospitals, cemeteries and crematoriums in the early stages, which greatly improved people's satisfaction.

Not only did it make up for the loss of satisfaction caused by pollution, it even increased it by a large margin. So these silicon-based people didn’t think there was anything wrong.

When these silicon-based little people pass their prime and gradually enter old age, they will start to suffer from various diseases and their lifespan will be greatly shortened.

All the sick people are sent to the hospital. Those who can be cured will continue to work, and those who cannot be cured will be taken directly to the crematorium and buried in the cemetery.

In this way, the hospital can generate income, and the energy generated by burning silicon-based figures in the crematorium can also be utilized.

The age structure of the silicon-based people on the entire comet is very healthy.

As for the three methods mentioned above, there is naturally no need to consider them anymore. You don't need to click on any of the things that cost money, such as bills, technology points, and sanatoriums.

Chen Tingquan, who understood all this, was stunned.

"Hey, if it's not Brother Yuan, can we still play like this?"

Chen Tingquan felt like his brain was overloaded.

The audience in the live broadcast room were equally shocked, but for the fans of the park manager, it was nothing strange. After all, he had the same train of thought when he live-streamed other games.

"Wow? Is that a demon spirit? There's a Class A war criminal here, catch him quickly!"

"For what you did, you must have a place on the street lamp."

"What street light? Just shoot me in five minutes!"

"The supervisor is a genius. I told you that you must have a side job in Southeast Asia!"

"This management level is indeed on par with the industrial park."

"This operation is absolutely perfect. It increases population mobility and reduces the risk of aging. Hospitals, cemeteries and crematoriums all make money. The silicon-based people are also very satisfied. We all win, we win like crazy!"

"These little silicon-based people should thank us!"

Zhuge Jun was no longer sleepy after watching it. How could he still do this?
When he was playing before, he did notice that the silicon-based people would die, but who would have thought that pollution could be used to reverse the aging population?

Of course, it may also be because this way of playing is too unethical and challenges the bottom line of human morality, so Zhuge Jun never thought about it in that direction at all.

But this is not the upper limit for park managers.

As the game progressed, he had new ideas.

Although the elderly population is much less than when other people were playing, there are still some. As the number of industrial areas on the comet increases and the population gradually increases, these elderly people inevitably accumulate.

At this time, the park manager also began to build a nursing home.

Among the many options for solving the problem of aging, nursing homes are obviously the cheapest one.

Because it only needs to ensure the most basic survival needs. Although it does not produce anything, its consumption is also low.

Other methods, such as nursing homes, although they increase satisfaction, are also very consuming; and although manufacturing plants specially prepared for silicon-based elderly people can produce supplies to a certain extent, the initial investment is also huge.

Other players generally take into account these different types of buildings.

In the early stages, the focus will be on cheap and easy-to-use nursing homes, but we will soon have to upgrade to other methods.

If we keep building nursing homes, they will take up more and more space as the number of elderly silicon-based people increases, and the satisfaction rate will decrease as time goes by, and may even decrease.

Zhuge Jun also watched carefully, wanting to know what the park manager wanted to do.

Nursing homes are built very close to each other, well, that makes sense. After all, it makes it easier to manage them in a unified way... Oh, wait, why was a fire isolation zone built here?

Are you afraid that the fire might burn these people? That's unnecessary, right?
Wait, could it be that...

Zhuge Jun suddenly had an outrageous guess.

Sure enough, after the park manager built many nursing homes and most of the older silicon-based people moved in, the temperature on the comet happened to gradually rise.

The conveyor belt near the nursing home was the oldest type of conveyor belt, and there were no special cooling measures. It soon caught fire due to overheating, and the fire continued to spread...

Soon, the raging fire engulfed all the nursing homes.

However, the fire did not burn other buildings because the park manager had built an isolation zone nearby from the beginning. On the surface, it seemed to be protecting the nursing home, but in fact it was the opposite, preventing the fire in the nursing home from burning outside.

Zhuge Jun was simply stunned.

"Is this even okay?"

To describe it in four words, it's insane!
A fire burned down these nursing homes, but it also completely solved the financial burden of these elderly silicon-based people. However, the method was a bit too inhumane.

As the fire was burning, the park manager suddenly slapped his thigh and shouted in regret.

"Oh no! It's broken, it's broken, it's broken!"

Zhuge Jun thought he had a change of heart, but when he heard the next sentence, he almost spit out his anger.

"How could these little guys keep burning for so long? I should have planned another energy station nearby!
"Wouldn't all that fuel be wasted? What a waste!"
