Asking you to play Half Earth if you didn't catch the thread from a couple days ago. I can find literally nothing on this game but it's so amazing, it combines all the good vibes of the socialists and the ecologists from Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri and manages to make a very hopeful message out of a very very bleak situation. Just bumrush BECCS to save the planet 4head.

Also the faction icons are just adorable. Look at these little guys. So cute. In real life fashion if you just follow the whims of the Fanonists, prioritize nuclear, and reduce meat consumption as much as possible you can just stop climate change within fourty years and make a little society worth living in. Have y'all found any strategies for this game that work well for you? I kept seeing lots of comments about getting to space but the game always ends too early for me to get that far, either because I die or because cooling goes below 1.0 C.

    Nothing in the JS code actually checks that probability variable, though, so not sure where it gets triggered to unlock.

      I also haven't been able to find where it would get unlocked/where that decision gets made.

      It exists in the game itself though and can be unlocked through editing local storage: https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/M0fOJ4gSxH.png

      To do this, I just did a search and replace from "locked\":true to "locked\":false.

        Yeah i did the same, but was unable to actually build any, because it requires some kind of resource or something, so max i could build is 0% (for fusion reactor). Theres also a 'concentrated solar industry' as well which I couldn't build either. Nothing seems to unlock this one.
