    my great suggestion for explorers

    hi players!

    what if we had a quest arc--and the reward is this

    you can combine lucky explorers into COMPANIES or 3, 5 or 10

    Then you simply now send out the COMPANY and it brings back 3, 5, or 10 sets of rewards.

    This will save on clicking, save on server storage, and save on server pings thru the internet.

    Also it will help clean up the Star of icons.

    This idea is not game-breaking anyway, as you are not creating any new resources, but only saving clicks and repetition.

    You could have two sagas also--something like "east indies trading company" for regular explorers and "lucky irish treasure hunt" for lucky explorers.

    The game too, could make $, by requiring that explorers have NO BOOKs when they are combined into a "company icon"--so people will need to refund their books. Paying for the game keeps the servers on, and will help justify the coding work to make this feature happen.

    I hope you like this idea!

    Would the rewards they bring back be random? If so what would the random range be?

    Interesting concept. I'd be willing to throw all or some specified number of an explorer type at a new or enhanced type of search, provided they can also leave a company to do their own thing. No books is a nonstarter.

    this way or another, i would like to be able to send a bunch of explorers together on the same kind of search
    i rarelly send them out anymore because its quite alot of work to send 30 explorers individually

    At least the mail issue is being addressed, but yeah, still more clicking than worth the effort.

    I will make the suggestion about group sending and see what might be able to be done.

    hi--ty--id have the rewards just be a bundle of the current rewards to save coding and also to preserve that this isn't any type of buff to older players

    simply, ur saving calls to the server, star space, loading space, and making a huge "quality of life" improvement
