Although industrial automation and industrial information technology differ, they are intertwined. Automation reduces production costs by using raw materials, energy, and manpower more efficiently. Win win for everyone IF the quality of the products are good.Īlthough Steam Direct has lowered the quality of games being released lately. In CNC machining centers, automated tool changers reduce set-up time significantly and boost volume of production. More competition improves everyone's products, and provides more choices for consumers. Automation is better for the building type, Gear city is better for the economy/business type. Other than that, I'm perfectly happy with AT being around. So AT will have some competition in the casual market from us a few months after I finish working on GC. (I have a working prototype forked from v1.18 of GC.) This game will be free to everyone who owns GC before it's released. When it comes to game lawsuits, it's mostly around intellectual property (characters, story, place names, etc) or pirated assets (artwork, text, code).Īnyhoo, I have planned for a stripped down, light version of GC for several years now. GearCity it self draws ideas from 1990s games Detroit and Motor City (notice the similar name ) ) (And I'm a lawyer in RL.) Game design is not copyrighted. I like the car designer of Automation, but I like the management aspect for car games even better. Originally posted by balazsgaramvolgyi:Seriously, I'm probably not far from the truth that a lawsuit by the maker of GC would be successful for copying his ideas, layout, design, almost everything. I own both and I must say at this point Gearcity gives me a more complete game than Automation.
