Rework daily free energies and move to carnival games
RM Garcia
Daily free energy is very easy to obtain and has been taken advantage by bots. Idling in sauna, energy regeneration, speck bed must be removed.
So how are we going to gain the daily free energy now? Carnival!
What about if we reach less than 2 energies and became slow? Im thinking if we put water fountains in TV that will provide enough energy when your energy is below 2.
Let's make carnival great again by implementing ticket exchange NPC where we can exchange tickets we earned from playing in carnival for untradeable wines!
We already have the mechanics where we can earn tickets from carnival games, just need to create an NPC where we can exchange tickets for wines and balance things out a bit by controlling the maximum amount of ticket/wines we can obtain daily based from the current max energy.
This way, bots will have a hard time earning daily free energy as the games are either social or requires thinking. The team can control daily energy by either capping the tickets we can earn through each game daily and limiting the amount of wines we can exchange from the NPC. Who knows maybe new games can be introduced in the future which may include special collaborations from other projects!

But this means you'll be forcing people to play carnival in order to get free energy. Forcing people to take actions in order to get something it's a very delicated thing and should not be abused. I agree with the problem you described, I just think a better solution could be founded!
