Corporation Funds and Offices
Assigning your Offices to a Corporation for even more powerful decentralized institutions.
The upcoming Points of Interest feature was recently enriched with the Corporations Concept and now receives a further upgrade.
Nevertheless, how could there be a Corporation without an Office?
There will be an option to assign your Office buildings to a Corporation that will, besides a massive logo on all the buildings, make a part of ETH or TRX generated by Offices to flow in a Corporation Fund.
There may be several players willing to unite their power to create a powerful Corporation. That way, assigning Offices to a Corporation will generate a Fund that can be used to attract POI builders and maintainers by granting them a part in that Fund (also filled by membership fees).
A player will be able to select a part of Funds to flow in the Corporation’s Fund. Offices could be assigned to only one Corporation and the player is required to be a Member / Partner / Owner of that Corporation. All the Offices buildings are assigned at a time, both Business Centers and Office Blocks (Global and Local Funds)— there will be no way to select a certain Office building to be assigned to a Corporation.
A Corporation Fund will be formed by membership fees and assigned Offices (if any). Membership fees are represented with Entry Fees and Subscription. A Corporation owner is one to define the fees. There could be Corporations those are free to enter but will require a regular fee to enjoy POIs bonuses, or a Corporation with some Entry fee but zero participation costs.
Available roles in a Corporation are slightly adjusted to fit the new concept:
- Founder (the creator or the owner, has all the rights in the Corporation)
- Partner (one who has access to the Corporation’s Fund)
- Member (one that uses all the bonuses from Corporation’s POIs).
That said, a Partner can also enjoy POIs bonuses while his membership fee is paid (or not required). Partner will still have all the rights granted by that role even if the fee is not paid (just no access to POIs bonuses).
Partner will have an option to withdraw ETH or TRX from the Corporation Fund as defined by his share. For example, if a Partner have 1/4 share in a Corporation, he will be able to withdraw
Partner is assigned by a Corporation Founder. That position can NOT be sold or transferred to another player. Partner’s share is a NOT a security, commodity or a swap. It can NOT be offered, sold or treated as a financial instrument. That is NOT a share in any legal instance, real company or institution.
Office buildings will still be owned by players and just like with POIs there will be an option to resign a Corporation (after a grace period).
Most importantly, a Fund going from Office to a Corporation will not require Resources to collect… until you will collect it from the Corporation Fund.
That way we’ll be able to have:
- Corporation’s Founders,
- Office buildings owners,
- POI owners / builders,
- POI maintenance team,
- Building owners (of all types)
as independent parties to form coalitions within the Corporations model.
Most likely, players will unite those roles — a Corporation Owner will be the POI Builder and Offices Owner at the same time. However, that creates an infinity variations of possible strategies to cooperate — like Offices Owners uniting in one mega Corporation with a huge Fund to invite powerful POI owners and a whole team of players to maintain the operations as Partners.
POI Landmarks still could be used as independent structures (not assigned to any Corporation) to empower a District and engage players to build more as well as Monument POIs will be used by sole-strategy players not willing to cooperate.
Super Appliances
As it was decided to lower the POIs construction costs, there might be less bonuses produced by them. However, with a new type of game assets called Super Appliances there will be a chance to provide all the buildings with additional bonuses.
Super Appliances are meant to be crafted from other Appliances in a new “Manufacture” building of Production type.
When installed on POI, that bonus will be applied to all the operational buildings of the same type constructed in the POI area.
Stay Tuned!
Corporation is a new upgrade planned for the MCP3D decentralized city builder game that will allow to form coalitions registered on a smart contract, scheduled to be released August 2020.
