News Ticker?

4y

Hello guys. (•ω•)

That would be simply a minor feature.
NEWS YES, IT’S NEWS TICKER, AS YOU SEE!

So what’s its use?
From the news of the news ticker, you’ll be able to know the situation of your colony, especially the more important issues like, lack of food, crimes, outbreak, literacy rate, e.t.c.
Besides, there’ll be some news which are something not very important, but contains some humor, hidden memes, and insane (?) stuff.

It’s better to have some examples here!

NEWS“New religion? People worshiping toasters”
NEWS“Robbers raid a bank with screaming chickens, people panic”
NEWS“Somehow government documents misspelled ‘stocks’ into ‘stonks’”
NEWS“Nuts becomes the most popular food in the colony recently, and of course we’re not, ‘nuts’”


It’s just an minor feature, but I hope it can be something that brings some fun to the game.

Your ideas?

Well yes, this is sort of what I want to do already, which I have started transforming the GBT price ticker into. My thought was to be like the news ticker on Sim City 3000 (I think it was 3000).

It’s good to hear it’s already developing (^ω^)
However I have a different view, I was thinking like, the News Ticker would be a minor part of the main game UI (if the screen have sufficient space for it) and GBT still keep its Trade Ticker.
