Posted on Apr 7, 2013 Hi, i want to discuss an idea for a new feature, 1 slider that lets us set for how long our marketing campaigns should last.Its really simple, we select how much money and for how long we want the marketing. That way i can coordinate my campaigns with the days left until i want to upgrade my stores, since when upgrading they dont sell so marketing at that time is useless. Example: I want to upgrade my store in 4 days. - I set 10M cash for marketing that store - I set 96 hours of marketing And it gives me the marketing power for those ours. Right now i set the 10M and the marketing power is spread over a long time, so a lot of it is wasted. |

Posted on Apr 7, 2013 Doesn't sound like a bad idea but Scott would probably have to rewrite the whole marketing formulas.

Posted on Apr 8, 2013 At first i dont think it would be 2 complicated, right now he should have something like:money*e(-t) with a t at a fixed value, it would just be a mater of making it a variable, with a range of something like 1-100 hours or something. That way you could use 10M in 1 hour or spread out over 100 hours, depending on you funds and strategy. IRL it would translate into something like a TV comercial or a newspaper ad. |

Posted on Apr 9, 2013 No. I had something else in mind. :-)I'll put convenience functions in there as well when the new feature is released, but it'll probably be "continuous marketing" instead of "spread over x weeks" |
