Year 13 Day 31 18:08	Paying Wages?!?
Jax Starblade	I just looked in my NPC inventory and noticed that several of them have Wage Owed: and then the amount. Should this be happening? Should I pay my NPCs? Should it be reported as a bug? Thanks for any assistance provided. Cheers! ____________

Lilith Delcroix	Seems its not a bug, I even got events that I paid some and need to pay others. Would have been nice if Admins would bother to mention it before it happened. ____________ Moons can't fly.

Jax Starblade	hangs head in disappointment ____________

Tiali Bixa-Loca	But why Lilith? Everyone has a month to pay, that's warning enough

Year 13 Day 31 23:54	Paying Wages?!?
Orinous Solarii	It would be nice to have a heads up. I've never been forced to pay until now. Plus all the NPC's that have never asked for Wage are now asking... "/ ____________

Elijah Shoryyhn	I remember when we had to pay NPC wages a while back, it was taken offline because it caused problems with the FI which constantly messed up and paying wages while not always receiving FI wasn't a good combo. Count yourselves lucky that we've gone so long without it. As Tiali said, you have a month to sort it out. The options to set wages as auto paid or not have always been available too.

Ellias Aubec	Technically, the only NPCs that disappeared at this point would be those that weren't paid since the last time it ran,m what, almost a year ago. All the rest have 1 month before they go poof. ____________

Tiali Bixa-Loca	Ah'm just glad that bug didn't hit me, ah've had some of mah NPCs from when ah started about 3 or 4 years ago

Ka`rla Leakey	But silly question about it being switched off due to it messing up FI, has it messed up FI as it doesnt seem to have run yet?

Year 13 Day 32 5:16	Paying Wages?!?
Ellias Aubec	FI ran before the NPC wages - at least according to my events. So if you haven't gotten any events, then maybe you don't have your FI stuff setup correctly? ____________

Dragan Bloodscream	Thanks for turning the credit sink back on, and providing the formula used to determine their wages in the rules, so I can budget accordingly. ____________ Goran'alor Dragan be aliit Ora'jair Alor be Mandal Hypernautics

Tiali Bixa-Loca	Don't have the time to check the Rules (it's getting late and mah machine is running slow), but the wage is based on the cost of hiring the NPC from the source, correct? And not how much you paid? So if you paid anywhere between 0 (won them or were gifted them) and 2mil (a special custom in an auction) the wage would be the same? So, umm, why is a Fighter pilot earning more than a Freighter and a Capital Ship pilot? In fact, out of mah small sample of NPCs (MCT, Brawlers, Medic, Builder, Fighter, Barge, Freighter & Capital Ship Pilot) the Fighter has the highest wage

Year 13 Day 32 7:21	Paying Wages?!?
Ellias Aubec	Tiali, its something like 10% of the server values (I believe it is in the rules pages...), so presumably the fighter pilots have, oh, maybe a higher hiring cost than the others? ____________

Murgo Contarus	''Murgo hands out wage packets to his 91 NPC's'' What happens if you fire an NPC, do they stay at the current location? Murgo ____________

Year 13 Day 32 7:56	Paying Wages?!?
Ellias Aubec	If you fire, they disappear. ____________

Tyr DeMeer	shame the autopay does not seem to work as it should or used too. and there been a warning about it being turned on and only I who missed it? If so could made sure we double checked all NPCs for any outstanding wages. Lost several thousands NPCs which was used in various ways due to this. ____________

Year 13 Day 32 16:37	Paying Wages?!?
Jevon Lambright	No warning,s just happened. ____________

Year 13 Day 32 17:57	Paying Wages?!?
Ellias Aubec	Autopay works fine I think. I have most of mine set to autopay, and I paid them credits - did get an event about them needing to be paid as well but I've bug based that. ____________

Year 13 Day 32 23:56	Paying Wages?!?
Tiali Bixa-Loca	Thank you Ellias, just seems strange that a Fighter pilot would be earning more than a Capital Ship pilot

Year 13 Day 33 10:04	Paying Wages?!?
Tyr DeMeer	strange that autopay always seemed to work in the past for us and that we now lost thousands and thousands of NPCs then. ____________
