I just started building my base, and, without wanting that, all traders that travel close to my base to get to their destination move next to my building and wait for like 2 minutes and leave to another town.

is that a bug? Because if it is dont remove it. It give a bit of protection, but have its risks...

Will be amazing when you can have your own shopkeepers in a town you make. Maybe the traders would trade with your shopkeepers to make you some money, or if that functionality won't exist by then, you could always train your turrets on those traders and sell whatever they've got. I can't wait for turrets.

Id prefer having the mines and farm added. So the base can be a bit more usefull to store things and then we could make our own weapons

I'm waiting for update that has the business starting option. So I can put up a saloon and get my amputate/body mod strippers and my squad as badass bouncers. And of course I want to sell rum and drink rum and sing with drunken rum-heads and beat up every drunken bastard who dares to fight in my night club.

Hey that gave me an idea. :) There should be possibility to order squad members to be bouncers. They would throw out troublemakers and restrain peace in saloons and shops without being attacked or hated by other people/factions. It would be a shame if war started between me and united cities because I beat up one fuck hole who tried to break my mirror behind saloon desk. ;)

Yeah, I hope that automated ai for jobs like you said and for mining and other thing like that become available. When we will have 200+ people in our faction, I dont want to have to give them order all the time to tell them to continue mining and when they are full to put them in a container...

^Fairly sure the game won't be left so that every single character needs to be micro-managed.

^^ That sir, sounds like a wicked idea for a bar.

I really can't wait until there is an update with a way to make money without looting. I hate looting, not for any moral reasons but because it is so micro intensive. Automated farming/mining and then a trip to sell it is much more my style of profit. And with the building blocks being so expensive my huge stockpile of cash is rapidly dwindling.

Plus, the new weight system makes looting far less interesting than it once was. My main guy can't even run at full speed with just his armour and weapons.

Luckily for you, Blxz, I think it has been said that big money in Kenshi will come from buildings and stuff and looting is just little part of life at the start of the game, it is mere a way to collect enough funds to buy your first home and start a real business for your living.

[EDIT]
Ps. Why are my messages looking like this now??!!

Once the job system will be implemented, the feature list will explode!

I wonder if we will be able to accept building contract :P We get paid to build a house, or else.

It could be nice.

I really like capitalism 2, and if there is gonna be big monay made from buildings, worshops and mines I'm gonna exploit that profit more than sweetshop exploits it's employes.
