For the first 3 groups of missions the missions will show up as a dialog when available, i.e. BEFORE they are done. When the missions are done only a "small" dialog saying that that mission NN was fulfilled.

During the last aeon on Kambr, our home planet, the resources of the essential five crystals for our civilization has begun to vanish. During our search through the universe for more we sent and planted seeds of us in the other civilizations we found.

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.

== Upgrade worker spawner ==
== Upgrade worker spawner ==
To get better workers you can upgrade your 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.


--- TODO keep working here ---
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

and upgrade the spawner by clicking and selecting Upgrade
 
Select an upgrade of your choice. The upgrade cost so you might have to wait for workers to come home, or even place them several times.
(Facilities tab image)
When you spawn workers with an upgraded worker spawner there is a chance they get a higher level immediately, up to the level of the spawner. You may also merge two workers at the same level to a higher level (The level of the worker spawner sets the highest possible worker level)
 
When you spawn or upgrade workers they will get the property you selected. You may later reorder the properties if you want another one to be the first upgrade.

Bonus: A level 2 worker
 
You should also have a look at the other facilities and too find out what you may build
(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)

== About treasures ==
== About treasures ==
Those are things you bring up from the root of the fountains using your "treasure finder", that maybe should be called something else. Facility: "Extractor"?
Deep under the fountains there are collections of treasures of crystals and other things. Would you like to go treasure hunting?

= Headlines.... TO WORK ON  =
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.
 
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.
 
The resources appear in fountains on the earth surface.
 
In order to be sent home they need to be packaged
 
TODO EXPLAIN worker to transmitter part transformer (some kind of black hole... thing)
 
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.


== 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 ==
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.
