With £17 left in the bank, I guess there's no hope left to hang on to my car, so I guess I'll have to sell it. Thankfully it's still only a couple years old, so it should be worth something. Lets get on the phone and make a for sale notice on some used vehicles site online.
And the scenario is as follows:
- Starting of from scratch on Sandy Bay map. Have bough the Volvo, made it a couple of years older to reduce the value of it, and afterwards lowered cash to £17. Sounds impossible, but on Sandy Bay map there's some territory that cost nothing.
- There will be no logging and no contracts in this game.
- The maximum loan I can have in the bank is half the value of my assets. For this matter I calculate assets as how many pounds I'd be left with if I went into the garage and sold everything.
- To ensure all loans actually cost some, I will only allow repayment of loans in January.
- Hard economy, default fuel usage, crop destruction, periodic plowing, lime and weeds on.
- Nine day season - Crop moisture, snow tracks and snow mode on.
- Will add some mods to have some cheap gear available, but the price need to sound halfway realistic.
- And of course no mods with income cheats like solar panels and government subsidies and the like. Greenhouses looked too good to be true too.
The sign when we got out of the tunnel said Sandy Bay.. I guess it's as good a place as any to try and find some work. It's not that far from the children so I can visit if I get back on my feet, and fate would have me being here when I got bankrupt, so lets see what we can find to do here. Lets walk up on the hill behind the camping wagon here and see if we can take a look of the bay..
It sure looks nice around here at least.
We took a ride into town too, and bought the local newspaper, the Sandy Bay Herald. There was some guy there with a helicopter pushing to get tourists to pay to take a ride with him, but as he had no business and I couldn't afford it, he offered me to come take a ride anyhow.. We sure got a nice view of the bay.
The camping wagon we rented is up to the left in this photo, left of the tunnel there, where we came from. There's a small buzzling town here, and quite a bit of farmland behind it.
There's even a circus in town.
The lighthouse is still operational. And there seems to be an industrial area beneath it..
