On one of them, the one you call Earth, has since then started to produce crystals and now, finally, the humans have developed good enough technology so we may contact you. You are an ancestor of the once planted seed among the humans.

== Produce workers ==
== TODO Info on teams somewhere? ==
A true Kambrian have the ability to split the body into several parts and do work at multiple locations at once. Some of this ability has been inherited to you: You may spawn workers.
Maybe changing team hq according to Magnus G's suggestion. Need one at level 1 to be able to join a team? (building Level 1 facility will be cheap but to be able to start your own team you will need it at a very high level)
 
= Collect =
 
== Spawn workers ==
A true Kambrian have the ability to split the body into several parts and do work at multiple locations at once. Some of this ability has been inherited to you: You may spawn workers.  
 
You will need workers to collect crystal.
 
You spawn workers by pressing the
 
[ICON-Worker menu button]


You should spawn more workers whenever you can. When you collect crystals you may even use some of them to spawn more workers even if it is not for free.  
and then press the "Spawn Worker"-button once or several times.


You spawn workers by pressing the [ICON-Worker menu button] and then press [BUTTON-Spawn worker].
The first worker is free but the next ones cost crystals, until the spawner has recharged, and the first one is free again. You should spawn more workers whenever you can. The recharge time of the spawner will increase with the number of worker you have.


The time between when you may spawn workers for free will increase when you have more workers.
Keep up producing more workers.


== Part X, place workers ==
Bonus for spawning first worker: 4 crystals


TODO continue
== Place workers ==
You will use your workers to harvest crystals from fountains.


== TODO More ==
Show the map in order to see the fountains:


== About treasures ==
(Map tab image)
Those are things you bring up from the root of the fountains using your "treasure finder", that maybe should be called something else.
 
and click on a fountain near you of the same color. In the dialog select a worker to place it.
 
(Fountain images)
 
The worker will automatically come back to you with it's crystal harvest when it is full or when the fountain run out. (Fountains are continuously refilled but will run out of crystal for some time when drained.)
 
Keep up placing your workers whenever possible. They will give you your main income.
 
If you place a worker within your action range it is free. If you want to place it outside it costs crystals. Beware that you may loose crystals if you place it to far from you.
 
(Action range image)
 
If you are not pleased with the color of your choice you may change it, but you will loose everything you have, i.e. don\'t wait too long if you want to do it. It may be done under Menu
and User Settings
 
== Upgrade worker spawner ==
To be able to make better workers you must first upgrade your worker spawner. To do that you will need some crystals so you might have to wait for workers to come home, or even place them several times.
 
You may improve the workers capacity (how much crystal they can carry), cooperation (how many workers that may be at the same fountain) or competition (being at the same fountain as many other player's workers).
 
Go to the facilities tab
 
(Facilities tab image)
 
and the Worker spawner
 
(Worker spawner image)
 
and select "Upgrade Worker Spawner" and then select upgrade.
 
This means that workers of level 2, or higher, get that upgrade. Workers at level 3 will also get the upgrade at level 3 etc.
 
To upgrade a worker to a higher level you merge two identical idle workers, in your color, to one worker of the higher level. When you spawn new workers with an upgraded worker spawner there is a chance they get a higher level immediately, up to the level of the spawner.
 
When you have several upgrades you may reorder them if you realized that you rather want another one first.
 
Bonus för first upgrade: A level 2 worker
 
You should also have a look at the other facilities and too find out what you may build (some are empty)
 
== Build portal ==
 
--- TODO continue here ---
 
In order to make it easier for you to place workers we have provided you with a portal.
You may build it somewhere near suitable fountains. Later when you are somewhere else you may still place workers for free within the range of the portal or near at a cost.
Build a portal by going to the map tab
and press the portal icon (lower right corner on your device)
scroll to the suitable location, near fountains, and place it.
 
== Modulate crystals ==
Initially this is the way to get crystals of other kinds. Later you may harvest such crystals.


<hr>
Click on the crystal container (at the top)
<hr>


= Old existing Intro, message from home planet =
and modulate up or down some crystals
Seedling, you have survived! Joyous condescension bubbles through my secondary sphincter. The Rubinium shall flow! We shall be awash in Gelbur! Joy, joy, joy, four times resounding joy!


Do you like my mode of speech? We have taken special steps to sound like your adopted host species in this recording.
Bonus: Some crystals of other colors


But enough with the biological entity noises. Moviridien makes the world go circular! It is time to rouse you dues so we may grow rich and famous together!
== Build worker modulator ==
To get workers in other colors:
Go to the facilities tab
click on the worker modulator facility
and build a worker modulator. You might have to collect and modulate more crystals in order to be able to build it.
Bonus: 4 crystals of your type


You have spawned on a rare world indeed, awash in all five of the primary crystals. You must harvest the crystals, bring back the five energy colors and transmit them through the ether to our home world.
== Modulate worker ==
To get workers in other colors:
Go to the workers tab
click on an idle worker
select modulate worker. Note that you might have to modulate some crystals in order to do this.
You should go ahead and modulate workers to all colors in order to have an income in all crystal types.


= Headlines.... TO WORK ON  =
= Send =
You are sent from a rare fragile world, running out or resources, to this.... Earth, to gather crystals just flowing out into space, wasted by the unaware humans, and send them home.
== Build a worker to transmitter parts transformer ==
In order to build transmitters to help your home world you need parts for them. But to make the parts you need a transformer.
Go to the facilities tab
Build a worker to transmitter parts transformer (low left)


You have to spawn your workers and travel to different places to make them harvest the crystals. Using your resources you may extend your workers capabilities and also extend your own capability to place the workers.
== Transform a worker to transmitter parts ==
To get transmitter parts you need to use a worker and transform it, but beware. You will need to keep some workers to have an income
Go to the workers tab
click on an idle worker
select Transform to score-worker parts


The resources appear in fountains on the earth surface.
== Mount a transmitter ==
In order to help your home world you need to transmit crystals home (and to get a good reputation). Before you can transmit them, they need to be packed in a transmitter.
Go to the transmitter tab
Start with a rack
Add transmitter parts of all colors
Mount it and you will get a transmitter
You place the transmitter on the map view.
The level of the transmitter affects the reputation.


In order to be sent home they need to be packaged
== Place a transmitter to send crystals to our home planet ==
To help your home world (and to get a good reputation) you place transmitters
Go to the map
Press the transmitter icon
Select a transmitter to place
The gained reputation lasts for 30 days and increases your ranking during that period
Toggle normal/reputation view with
Your current rank is displayed in the rank box.
The rank numbers shows your rank in the centered small area, medium area, big area and in the world.
You click on the rank box to view the full ranking list.


TODO EXPLAIN worker to transmitter part transformer (some kind of black hole... thing)
= The rest... =
For now, keep almost the same.


Transmit the gather crystals back to your home planet to help saving it. All transmitted crystals gives you influence and makes you famous (score) but fame does not last forever, more precisely, 30 days on you home planet.
== About treasures ==
Deep under the fountains there are collections of treasures of crystals and other things. Would you like to go treasure hunting?


== Extra ==
You may build a Treasure Extractor (was "Treasure finder") to bring those up to ground level so you and other earthlings attuned to other colors may pick them. Each treasure will have a part in every color that only earthlings attuned to that color may pick. The treasure will stay on ground level for 24 hours before they (sink back into the ground again / are destroyed in the earth's atmosphere)


=== Treasures ===
The extractor takes time to recharge but you may upgrade it to make it upgrade faster. At some level you may even extract bigger treasures.
You may also go treasure hunting, when you have built a treasure finder.
Using NN(treasure finder) you may make extract NN (treasures) from earth that may contain useful parts.  


=== Team ===
== Team ==
Join a team or start your own (when you may) and gather friends to get advantages and be the best team with most influense on your home planet.
Join a team or start your own (when you may) and gather friends to get advantages by building monuments and be the best team with most influence on your home planet.
