I agree! This is funny - none of us are totally sure what we're doing but we LIKE it! ROTFLOL!!!!

One question I have about strategy: I've been bumping up my chain facs several times a day since I get more from them. But now I'm wondering if I keep them full all the time, does that mean people can't import to me? Is my staging area related in any way to how full my facilities are? What the heck IS our staging area and what's the best strategy for having the most room for imports and exports?

But yeah - loving this new toy.

Hi Susan,
As to your strategy you will have to develop what works best for you.
The staging area is only for the products Exported to you so that would only be for your service facilities. When you have products in your staging area then your Import button for the services chain will turn green. When you import those products they are moved from the staging area to your regular storage to be used in that service chain.

Ah, ok, that helps.

So how do we have products that we can export? Just by filling our facilities and having people work them - like always? So in other words, refilling the facs several times like I've been doing HELPS with this, not hurts, right?

Hi Susan,
You can only Export from chains you have made of regular facilities so the more you make in those facilities the more you will have to export. All of the information we have for the facility chains is in the Game Guide Chapter 33:
