There are three classes of intellects: one which comprehends by itself; another which appreciates what others comprehend; and a third which neither comprehends by itself nor by the showing of others; the first is the most excellent, the second is good, and the third is useless. - Niccolò Machiavelli
I also found out that if you carefully watching your gold ore going down and not planing restocking it with gold parrots, then when deposit reaches 1-5 gold ore (depends on how long you willing to look at it, or just lucky to see it that low) I destroy gold mine to get some of the resourses back, 350 hwp, 350 marbles, 375 tools.
In my opinion those not worth 1-5 gold ores.
I wanted to link to a thread about Golden Parrots that may be of some benefit in the gold production discussion.
Quest for Golden Parrots
There is one point which is not clear to me. The original post says you can buff the mines and get 600 ore instead of 300. Is it correct to interpret this as ore/hour and not the total amount of ore harvested from one mine? Phrased another way: buffing a mine increases the rate with which ore is extracted and has no effect on the total amount of ore that can be extracted from that one mine, correct?
No you do not. When you destroy the mine, it is removed from your map. When your Geologist finds it again the deposit will be full.
Dudicus is correct. Anything that you buff will give you x2 production depending upon what level the mine/building is. Ex: lvl 3 building+buff=6 resources every Total Prodution Time. If you level a building, all this will do is get you 1 extra resource per level, BUT it will take dbl the resources to produce as well, Ex: lvl 3 firwood saw mill will take 3 fir logs, resulting in 3 firwood planks. If lvl 3 firwood sawmill was buffed, then you would get 6 firwood planks and only use 3 firwood logs to get the 6 planks. Hope that explains the buff/upgraded building question.
This guide is off a little.
You shouldent ever let mines deplete. you should find someone to buy golden parrots from.
this way you dont ever lose the resources.
also for gold production to be good you should keep it buffed.
