Title: HPD Bank
Post by: Hatejacket on July 27, 2011, 03:36:56 PM
I dont know about you guys, but when I see HPD in my Finances, I immediately want to spend it on hardware, and alot of the time I end up spending more than I should be saving for research.

It would be cool if we had an HPD Bank we could deposit/withdraw funds from on the Finances page, and also had a way of setting an option where you can "tax" yourself a percentage (for example, setting it to 50% would make 50% of all earnings deposit into the bank).

This money would still be susceptible from virii if your "wallet" is empty, but it would be a nice, easier way to save up HPD. I could then save my bank HPD for research and spend my "wallet" HPD on hardware simply by setting a percentage, for example.

Would it have a intrest rate as well?

As for the 'tax' option, which option would go through first? Would group tax be applied first or would the user's tax be applied first?

Did you forget where to put periods for a second?

I want a separate place to put my funds so I have my spending automatically controlled.

I don't like the idea of an interest rate because it would just be another way for the rich to get richer.

I would rather the group tax was applied first.

group tax first ofc... or else ppl could set this tax to 100% to avoid group tax.

hj, i can make a script that asks you to confirm if (money spent > money available - safety reserve), but tbh, its easier just to not spend all you got on hardware

tbh, it would be easier if this suggestion was implemented

im not sure, implementation would mean a lot of coding, more than a simple script

Are you the coder? No, why are you complaining about it then?

If Emi didn't want to code, he shouldn't have made the game, don't you think?

and no he isn't a coder. but games are meant to stop coding at a point and just be a game, emi doing what he can to add updates but a bank option would be a big update, its not simple to code it in and make it work right.  u need to start with option that work to everyone benefit and then move to bigger updates. . u got to understand that coding takes loades of time and cant just be written in a day. emi got a life too and got to make a pay check like everyone. yes emi makes plenty from the hp but still doesn't have the time to spend 24/7 on hp.  u just ned to chill with the all the big updates

No, I don't need to "chill" with suggesting updates. There is a priority list for a reason. Thanks for being Emi's PR rep, though.

Am I the only one around here that uses the stock market as my bank?

hmm, thats a good idea. prices' changes are very, very small, you may gain or lose only tiny amounts of money that way.

And the best part, it can't be targeted by virii. With the stock market, depending on how you use it, a bank is practically worthless.

i wouldnt say its the best part, because no one installs viruses on other players' servers (maybe for griefing, but not for profit, it just not efficient at all)
