Field notes
The page lays out a linked economy in which player orders set exchange prices, credits receive double-entry postings, and wages circulate through a closed loop. It also describes life-support goods as real economic pressures, with dust storms, solar flares, and equipment failures affecting the colony. The proposed political layer includes public logs of official actions and a Council that approves the budget.
