I feel like this democracy 3 game is dead atm. Thats why I dont feel like doing anything as it wont matter at all. Would you do something and be exhausted for nothing? There is no accomplishment.

thanks

Ok. I think I am going to make an update soon than.

Shorten the implementation to make it max 30 turns.
Dark Data  [author] 15 May, 2018 @ 11:32am 
What do you want me to do exactly?
sneadera 15 May, 2018 @ 8:58am 
Are u planning on fixing this?
sneadera 6 May, 2018 @ 2:06am 
Yes, but it dosen't really work. Why can't you just reduce the time it takes to implement?

Well, take a look from the bright side. Atleast mod is working.

This does not work. It takes way too long to implement. I implemented it in the 2nd quarter and there wont be an effect till I am dead.

There is an signifiacnt cost in seawater desalination. In staates like Dubai water is more expensive than petrol.

I think both of y'all should do a bit more research before shouting down the first comment.

Slingshot requires a combustible fuel source--burning wood, coal, etc--in addition to the electricity. It's a step forward but it's not truly "clean." The device itself is also not cheap; it is estimated to cost several thousand bucks.

Nanotubes are a possible candidate but the technology just isn't there yet, and desalination with them still require a lot (albiet less) of energy. It's also not particularly cheap to make carbon nanotubes at this point in time; if it was, carbon nanotubes would already be replacing things such as steel due to their strength.

Modern desalination tends to be either "we evaporate it" (which usually requires burning fuel; Slingshot uses this premise) or "we run it through filters." There's a reason why countries that actually use desalination on a large scale tend to be ones with a lot of fuel but not a lot of fresh water, like certain nations in the Middle East.

Actually, there is a real charity run by Coca-Cola where a portable desalination plant is fit inside a small truck, which is run for just the electricity which can be provided by a rooftop solar panel. There's no need for it to be rediculously expensive, just have it take a few months to take full effect as you build a 'fleet'.

Actually, a recent technology called Nano-tubes could potentially make desalination cheap enough to be applicable in 3rd world countries. Please do your research before you comment.

Hopefully you made it so that it costs a ridiculous amount of money. Why it isn't done in real life very often.
