Instructions for Astermene v1.0
Astermene is a somewhat complex business game, written for eight-bit Acorn
computers. When the game opens, it is the year 2500 AD. A new planetoid
has recently been found to have large deposits of an metal called
Astermene. The planetoid has therefore been officially opened by the Earth
government to allow mining of Astermene ore by private companies. Although
very little has changed in the past half millenium, because of the
numerous governments that have since existed, most notably the
establishment of the single Earth Government in 2432 AD, a fair amount of
legality has changed.
In the opening menu of the game you are given several options, listed and
described below (to select an option, from any menu, type the letter in
brackets):
GENERATE NEW SEED - When the startup variables are set, the random number
generator is automatically set to the value of TIME. If you wish, you can
set it to a chosen number. If you set it at this number at the start of
every game, all the market conditions, and other psuedo-random events
would be the same. The only difference could be your response.
READ INSTRUCTIONS - Allows you to read this text file from the game.
START NEW GAME - Prompts you for a company name, and then will display the
initial screen. On default the company name will be set to 'AMC Ltd'
(Astermene Mining Company).
LOAD GAME - Asks you for a filename, and to enter the company name. On
default, this is set to the name of the saved company.
VIEW HIGH SCORES - Reads the high score chart from disk, and displays it.
Press any key to continue. The table is automatically displayed at the end
of a game.
When you have started a game, the scren will be divided into two halves.
The bottom screen allows you to make company decisions; the top screen
displays most of the company statistics, as follow:
NAME - Current company name.
YEAR - Current year. The game ends at the end of 2540.
WORKERS - The number of employees.
MINES - The number of mines you are using and you own. The number
currently in use is displayed before a backslash; the number you own
after. For example, 5/8 means five mines are being used out of eight
owned.
MONEY - The amount of cash you have at hand. It is displayed in credits,
the current world currency.
SATISFACTION FACTOR - Equivalent to the current opinion poll. If it is
equal to one, the workers (on the whole) are tolerent. Below, and people
may leave. Above, and people will request to join. It can, however, not be
measured so simply. People may resign even when the factor is above one.
MINE PRODUCTION - The amount of tons of Astermene each mine produced last
year, as an average figure.
ORE IN STORE - Total amount of Astermene in storage. Not necessarily the
amount produced this year; some may be left over from last.
ASTERMENE ORE PRICE - Amount, in credits, a ton of Astermene costs on the
market.
MINE PRICE - The current cost of a mine on the open market. It is
automatically presented as the figure which is best value for money. Mines
may be bought just opened from the government, or off of another company.
Again, it is only the price of the ones which are best value for money.
Employees below you sort that side of the business.
To allow the sorting of company statistics, the bottom screen will display
a menu:
COMPLETE STATISTICS - Displays company statistics, as follows: Prospective
Employees, Food Budget (overall and each), Salary (overall and each),
Total Wage Expenditure, Amount of Current Free Cash. All these options are
expanded upon later.
BUYING - Allows you to buy mines, to buy ore, and to reopen already closed
mines. The reason you would wish to buy ore, is that if you have surplus
profits, and ore prices are cheap, you can buy tons of it, and sell it
when it is more expensive.
SELLING - Allows you to sell mines, sell ore, and to close mines. You
would close mines if the mines were only selling cheaply, and you had
surplus, or if you wished to buy, say eight, but did not have the workmen
to mine them.
WORKFORCE - Allows you to change the amount of money you spend on your
employees' salary, their food budget, and also lets you lay off workers,
or employ new ones. The maximum number of new workers you can employ
depends on the satisfaction factor, and is displayed under the statistics.
In the first year, it is set to zero, since the workers will be attracted
to other companies rather than you.
END TURN - Simply allows you to end this year. The amount of money you
have set to spend on your employees wil be checked, and if you have not
got the cash, you will be notified and returned to the menu. When you have
the cash, information screens will be displayed. These will notify you of
market gluts (if the mine production rate is above around 150 tons) or
radioactive leaks (which kill around half your workforce, and drop the
satisfaction factor). The third, yearly information screen displays the
number of workers you presently have, the number of workers who resigned,
the number of people who are looking for work at your company, the
satisfaction factor, the workers carried to the next year, and the number
to which the workforce can be boosted.
If, on this menu, you press <RETURN>, you will be presented with the
'escape' menu, which gives you various options to do with the actual game:
STATISTICS DISPLAYED:
SEED NUMBER - The seed used by the random number generator. If you type
this in for a future game, the game will be identical to this one.
COMPANY NAME - The current company name. This can be changed, if you wish,
by saving the game, reloading it again, and re-entering the name.
SALE VALUE - This is the amount of money the company would fetch if sold
on the open market in the current climate.
OPTIONS GIVEN:
SELL COMPANY - You can choose to sell your company for the amount of
credits displayed under 'sale value'. The computer will double check with
you, so as to make sure the key wasn't pressed accidentally. If your score
is worthy of entering in the high score table, the computer will do so,
and save it to disk. Beware - If you persue this option the game will be
over.
SAVE GAME - Allows saving of your current game to disk. The seed value
will not be saved. On default, the game will be saved as 'sgame' and
'default' will be displayed after the prompt.
QUIT COMPANY - This quits the game. The computer will double check that
you intended to press this.
Press <RETURN> again to return to the normal menu.
STATISTICS DISPLAYED:
All the statistics are to do with the workforce.
PROSPECTIVE EMPLOYEES - The number of people who are seeking work with
your company. The number increases roughly proportionally with the
satisfaction factor.
FOOD BUDGET - The food budget is displayed in terms of both the total
amount of cash you are going
to spend on food, and the amount this works out to per head. Please note
that the budget is not handed out to the persons, but the actual food
which is flown in.
SALARY - This is also displayed totally and per head. It is in addition to
the food budget, and it is with this that the buy food, equipment and (if
they are lucky) go on holiday.
TOTAL WAGE EXPENDITURE - The total amount of money you are going to spend
in wages; the food budget added to the salary.
CURRENT FREE CASH - If you were to buy the food now, the amount of cash
left over. The number can be negative, showing that you cannot cover costs
unless you raise more money, or sell more products. The salaries and food
are the prime difference makers of the satisfaction factor.
VALUES:
FOOD BUDGET - Approximately Cr100 should be spent per head. This keeps the
satisfaction factor constant. More, and it goes up. Conversely, less, and
it goes down.
SALARY - Approximately Cr10 should be spent per head. This only has the
ability to depreciate the satisfaction. It cannot increase it, therefore,
Cr10 should be the maximum spent.
MINES PRICES - These range from Cr2000 to Cr4000.
ORE PRICES - These usually range from Cr8 to Cr20. They can drop below in
a market glut. To ensure they rise quickly, mine production is
automatically cut in half.
POSSIBLE ENDINGS:
The game can end in the following ways:
GOVERNMENT TAKEOVER - This is where the government will force you to hand
over the company, for two possible reasons. Firstly, the living standards
may be exceptionally poor, which will be shown to you in the satisfaction
factor, or, secondly, the number of people per mine may have fallen below
ten.
SELLOUT BEFORE 2540 - This is where you choose to sell your game before
the forced end of the game. This allows you to take advantage of the
possibility of a better climate, which will earn you more money. However,
it is a gamble.
FORCED SELLOUT - According to the imposed law, the longest amount of time
a single person may take hold of a single company, is forty years.
Therefore, it will have to be sold.
SAVING AND LOADING:
SAVING - This is accessed from the escape menu. Simply enter the name you
want to save it under. The computer will tell you if the file exists, and
ask if you want to overwrite it. By pressing <RETURN> the game will be
saved under the default name 'sgame'.
LOADING - The opposite to saving, loading, is available from the start
menu. Simply enter the name of you game, and the computer will load it. If
it does not exist, it will keep asking until it does exist. By pressing
<RETURN> it will automatically load the file 'sgame' (if it exists).
WRITE PROTECT (WP) VARIABLE:
This is a variable, defined in line 60, which is either TRUE or FALSE. If
it is TRUE, write protect is on, and no writing operations will follow. By
default, it will be set to TRUE.
ERROR TRAPPING:
THERE IS NO ERROR PROTECTION IN THIS PROGRAM, although Escape is disabled
by the '*FX 200,1' in PROCcreds. If an abnormal error is found, I would be
grateful if you would notify me of it. Thankyou. The exceptions are those
for filing systems. These will be rare, but be careful. Don't set 'wp' to
FALSE if your disk is write-protected, for example. It is not at all a
serious drawback.
