The next batch of economy-related changes is now live! The immediate change that you will notice that all the refineries and factories have been removed, and you got the Marks (current price) back.

AUTOFACTORIES AND REFINERIES
============================

* Every player can now own TWO types of autofactories and TWO types of refineries, and at most two of each type (so a total of 4 refineries and autofactories), with specialization-based exceptions.

* You can now use autofactories belonging to other players

* Autofactory owners can use AUTOFACTORY <id> PRICEMULT <x> to set the cost (and their profit margin) when producing for others.

* Every player can now pick ONE specialization out of three options - MANUFACTURING SPECIALISE mining/refining/autofactory

MINING:
- 10% higher yield from asteroids and refineries
- no speed penalty when turning around with an asteroid
- reduced scoops movement penalty
- autofactories and refineries operate slower
- refinery and autofactory cost doubled

REFINING:
- refineries operate faster and taxes are reduced
- can own up to THREE types of refineries, and 3 of each type
- speed/turning penalty when hauling asteroids and clouds increased
- autofactories operate slower

AUTOFACTORY:
- autofactories operate faster and taxes are reduced
- can own up to THREE types of autofactories, and 3 of each type
- speed/turning penalty when hauling asteroids and clouds increased
- refineries operate slower

If you have no specialization, you incur all the listed penalties.

IMPORTANT - the specialization is a one-time choice. You CAN change it, but it'd cost you 100 credits, so pick wisely!


PERSONAL MARKET ORDERS
======================

Every player who has picked a specialization will now be able to take up to FIVE personal market orders every day. These orders are automatically generated, and are much more lucrative than other market orders. You can see them on your order lists, or you can use MARKET ORDER PERSONAL to list only the personal orders. These are replaced every RL day.
