= FAQ: =

=== Q: I’m new, how do I start? ===

A: Your company exists without a start command. Common commands are <code>$$help</code>, <code>$$tutorial</code>, <code>$$faclist</code>, <code>$$f</code>, <code>$$a</code>, <code>$$val</code>, and <code>$$c</code>. Newly added <code>$$wiki</code> command is awesome!

=== Q: I still have questions, what should I do? ===

A: Go to #help in discord HQ and ping @helper with your question.

=== Q: How to I go to IdleCorp Profit? ===

A: Well, I won’t put the (External) link (because I want to prevent I have block) but I will say some ways to go to the google site, you can go to #suggestions-feedback and search about “idlecorpprofit”, you will found about the link, now haven’t the official link on anywhere but there has a second website in here, you can go to [[IdleCorp Profit]].

=== Q: I’m new, can I get advice on what facility I should focus on now? ===

A: Your goal is to generate assets to sell for cash.

There are multiple ways to get started:
Opt 1: As shown in the tutorial you can use [[Tree farm]](s) and move into [[Furniture factory]](ies) to produce [[Wood]] and furniture to sell the assets for cash.

Opt 2: Building [[oil well]]s and then Plastic factories to manufacture [[Plastic]] and sell it for cash.

Opt 3: Building [[Coal mine]]s and later replacing them silicon and [[Gold mine]]s to eventually start producing [[Laptop]]s.

=== Q. Is there a storage capacity in Idle-Corp? ===

A. No, you can store as many assets as you can build or buy.

=== Q. Can I give money to my friends? ===

A. The bot does not have a command to give money, but the player market can be used if both players have a logistics center. This is done by selling (an) asset(s) to the player that's giving the money.

Advanced woodworking is usually used as a "trading token" due to a lack of interest on market. This makes it easier to trade without accidently selling to/buying from the wrong person.

=== Q. What is net worth? ===

A. Your net worth is a total of everything your Corp owns. Land, factories, assets, developed tech, and money affect your net worth. Here is some info about the formula.
Land value at 40% buy price.
Factory value at 40% buy price.
Asset value at NPC market price.
Developed Tech at a value of all materials needed to develop it.
Money at current cash level.

=== Q. What does a logistics center do? ===

A. Allows access to the player market, and expands your hourly buy limit in the NPC market.

=== Q. Is Jet fuel the same as rocket fuel? ===

A. No, two different assets.

=== Q. What is a gratitude point, and what are they used for? ===

A. Gratitude points are earned by voting for the Idle-Corp bot, using <code>$$vote</code>. The gratitude points can be spent to change your company name and motto, or to instantly finish a research project.

=== Q. How do I sell land or move to another server? ===

A. You have to <code>$$liquidate</code> the server, selling all land, facilities, and assets. You get back 40% of your land and facilities cost, assets sell at current NPC market value.

=== Q: How do I buy assets? ===

A: Type <code>$$buy <asset> <max or number></code> or <code>$$soffers <asset></code> then <code>$$mbuy <asset> <how many> <price></code>. Buy command is mainly for buying raw materials (glass, cpu, iron, silicon, etc). Soffers (sell offers) is mainly used for buying end products (laptops, cell phones, cars, etc).

=== Q. How do I cancel a player market offer? ===

A. Use the command <code>$$offers</code>. It will show your current offers and which slot number they are in 1, 2 or 3. Then use <code>$$canceloffer <1, 2 or 3></code>

=== Q. What is regional legislator, and how do I become one in my server? ===

A. A regional legislator is an elected official, who has the ability to change policies in the region for a week. This has a few steps.

First check <code>$$r</code>, if a region office built (it costs 100m). Use <code>$$ds region office 100m</code> to fully fund it.

Now you can join the ballot. To join ballot use <code>$$joinballot</code>. It costs 10m to join.
Vote for yourself using <code>$$voteballot @YourName</code>.

If you get an error while voting, you probably need voters boon. Use <code>$$vote</code> and vote for the bot to get it. Then try and vote again.

Now you need to wait for the election to end. Use <code>$$ballot</code> to see when it ends. Once the ballot closes and you get elected, you can change the policies.

Tip: A tie in votes will cause no one to win.
