Khmun Obelisk Queue

2009-01-16T23:45:30Z

Lousku: /* Here is the list: */

== Obelisk Queue ==

This is the queue for the initial obelisk rush in Khmun. Since we aren't totally sure of anything required yet, this page will not initially list the height required -- simply the position in line.

I've added a column for size of the obelisk. Please make an additional note detailing the offending player(s) if you get jumped so that we can keep track of players violating the queue. -Shulpan

'''You must be ready to build within 15 minutes of your turn''' in the queue, or you get jumped. Keeping track of the queue is your responsibility, but it'd be real neighborly of you to notify the next person when you pass. Make a note after your name on this page to let people know you've passed, just to help keep things organized.
Please do NOT jump the queue we ALL lose.

Lousku: Undo revision 23170 by Lousku (Talk)

{{Template:ItemInfo|weight=1|bulk=1|image=Flax.png|description=Used to produce twine, rope, and thread.}}

Flax is a vital crop used in the production of textiles. Flax's main products, [[tow]] and [[lint]], are processed in order to make [[canvas]], [[linen]], and [[rope]], all goods fundamental to the Egyptian lifestyle.

Flax comes in many varieties. Anyone may receive a packet of either Old Egypt or Nile Green flax seeds from any [[School of Art and Music]]. If you are carrying a jug, you will get Nile Green from the school, otherwise you will get Old Egypt. Rumors of the ancient are that through crossbreeding, it is possible to design even more potent flax strains.

== Cultivation ==
To grow flax, plant a bed of flax plants using the "Plant" menu, on grass. Flax will not grow on sand. After a short while, green flax shoots with blue flowers will appear in the bed. Shortly afterwards, yellow weeds will appear. Weed the flax bed by selecting the appropriate menu option. Depending on the variety of flax being used, you may need to water the flax when you weed it (using one [[requires::Water in Jugs]]), and you may need to weed the bed several times. Eventually, the flax will complete growing and you may harvest it. There are no signs that the flax is ready for harvest except more flowers grow in the flax bed. The best way to tell is to click on the flax and see.

To get water, you need [[Jugs]], which you can get by signing up to learn the [[Pottery]] skill at a [[School of Thought]].

Flax grown in the above manner will not produce any seeds. To grow [[requires::Flax Seeds]], plant a bed of flax but do not weed it. Shortly after weeds appear in the bed, the flax will go to seed. You will see more of the yellow weeds. You may then harvest seeds from the flax up to 5 times before it finally dies. When the plant dies, it will leave more seeds on the ground.

Take care to not use up all your flax seeds when growing flax; you should always keep at least a few in reserve to grow more seeds. If you do run out, you can go back to a School of Art to get a few more seeds.

==Pollution==
Among other species of flax, [[Nile Green]] will produce pollution around the ground where it is grown. It doesn't seem to affect only the exact spot, but the general area, perhaps the whole coordinate area up to a range of 2-3 in each direction. ''(Needs independent verification)''

Nile Green: In a 4x4 coordinate area in Sinai, 3362,4114 I began planting NG and harvested 180 or so before I started getting only seed.

I planted over 500 NG and didn't lose any flax (3420,4382 Sinai)--Ferns

I have harvested over 3000 Nile Green and am still getting regular returns. (FB 3898, -431) --Andara

Pollution is probably not the right word for it. Where NG has been planted in quantity, Old Egypt flax subsequently planted may yield no flax and a message about poor soil (poor soil is not the same thing as pollution). [[User:JulianJaynes|JulianJaynes]] 01:33, 31 December 2008 (EST)

Update--the same spot now returns no flax and a message about poor soil quality for Nile Green as well. I can't tell you how much flax I've planted, but I've been using the same spot since we got jugs. The depleted soil is only for 2-3 coords, and moving over a bit takes me out of the depleted zone.

Flax comes in many varieties. Anyone may receive a packet of either Old Egypt or Nile Green flax seeds from any [[School of Art and Music]]. The first type of flax seed received from the school is always Old Egypt, but later you will get Nile Green. Commonly people say that this is triggered by carrying a jug, but that is incorrect.

Lousku:

Nocti presents! : Her waaay ambitious expansion plan for the oasis!

Apologies for the horrid formatting, I'm still a wiki n00b :p

Or more seriously, an idea of what goes where so we have a place to: a) store mats for buildings unavailable
due to techs b) a spot to put said buildings when they're available c) and idea of what kind of mats to save
up/grind for them. I'm working on a more ordered list (sorted by priority & tech) and setting up 'stages' of
building so we're not overwhelmed with work :p Here's the basic sort by compound, and a list of outdoor
buildings needed, plus a shiny map!

[[Image:Nocti_Oasiscenterplan2.jpg]]

*Outdoor structures:
**1-2 Chicken Coops (these were outside in beta, IIRC)
**1-2 Dromedary Pens
**4-6 Serpentaruims
**5-10 Greenhouses (by the Farm CP)
**10+ Flax Hammocks (Between Farm & Flax CP's)
**Indonesian Beehives (and room for informal garden) over by the GH & HoA
**Save up for Camp Decoration!

==Hall of Awesome==
*aka great hall or temple style CP):
**Banquet Table
**Tasting Tables
**Trophy Cases
**non-test mosaics & opticons *
** *We should keep ones we want to pass near a CS :)

==Flax & Wood CP==
[[Image:Nocti_Flax CP2.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Flax & Wood CP]]

*Flax & Wood CP:
**Flax Combs/Rakes
**Distaffs & Gins
**Looms
**Carpentry Shops
**Gearbox Table?
**Gem Cutting Table?
**Wood Treatment Tank
**Saw Mill

==Brick & Stone CP==
[[Image:Nocti_Brick_cp2.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Brick & Stone CP]]

*Brick & Stone CP:
**Kilns
**Pottery Wheels
**Brick Racks
**Rock Saws
**Mason's Bench
**Pottery Deck*
**Cement Vat
**Barrel Grinder
** * Optional, can be done at a public works later on

==Metal & Glass CP==
[[Image:Nocti_Metalcptk2-2.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Metal & Glass CP]]

*Metal & Glass CP:
**Smelters
**Forges
**Glass Benches
**Casting Boxes
**Charcoal Hearths/Ovens
**Fleet Furnace

==Alchemy CP==
[[Image:Nocti_Alchemytk2-2.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Alchemy CP]]

*Alchemy CP:
**Alembic
**Alchemists Bench
**Chemistry Lab
**Toxin Kitchen
**Acid Baths
**Star Rack
**Chemical Bath
**Acoustics Lab
**Scent Lab
**Pigment Lab

==Farm & Kitchen CP==
[[Image:Nocti_Flowercp2.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Farm & Kitchen CP]]

*Farm & Kitchen CP:
**Sturdy Tubs
**Kettles
**Beetle Terrariums
**Rabbit Hutch
**Chicken Coop (think these are outside now)
**Paper Presses
**Silkworm Farms
**Mutagen Lab (ahahaha :x )
**Kitchens
**Malting Trays
**Grain Oven
**Wine Barrels
**Barrel Vise
**Tasting Table

===Random thoughts===

- If you have an idea of a better arrangement of either the CP locations, or where what goes inside a CP,
please speak up! :)

- the Gearbox and Gem table seem misplaced in the flax cp; perhaps the gearbox in the open corner, bottom
right in the metal cp, or, with the gemtable over to the alchemy cp (where there's plenty of room to move the
camera around)

- similarly, I'm not 100% on the hypothetical mutagen lab - considering the mats it uses, maybe over to the
alchemy CP?

- I originally had the kitchens & wine stuff separate in a smaller CP, I could re-size the F&K CP, and make
another one to hold the kitchens, and place it S of the Metal CP

===Comments===

- The metal compound lacks an anvil. We also need to keep in mind that since some buildings have changed already, like furnaces, other buildings will be changed too. Meh, nothing big. This plan is great! -''Lousku''
