oh.. i see that you have been here since the very beginning:), yes, crown coin was affecting Tiers rewards as a hidden thing for the player to discover, but after further testing, this feature was harming the game more than adding to it, so i removed it.
Data and Materials will be boosted in the next (big) update, which it should be (world map) patch.
I hope the update comes as soon as possible. I also found a bug in the bot manager where the rectangles in the assemble tab become wide if you switch to it for the first time in fullscreen mode. Also, text might overlap with the rectangles. You should also fix capitalisation (e.g. "i" to "I")
Also, some credit achievements are separated by not one but two orders of magnitude. Is that intentional? Because from av (highest total credit generated achievement order of magnitude, SxV [10^81]) to ac (highest CPS achievement order of magnitude, Sp [10^24]) there is a HUGE gap. Some achievements seem ridiculous or am I just thinking that because I am still in early game or will some of these take fewer time to complete in the future? (Total credit generated: close to 3.6B as of writing time).
As for ideas, a new type of hardware called "Dongle" would make sense. The original cost and CPS would be 777,777,777,777,777 (over 777T) and exactly 370M respectively (both amounts if and only if it was to be the 13th type of hardware).
And I talked about typos in the game, but there are also grammar errors (e.g. Frequently instead of Frequent in System Manager/Softwares [the plurals of software and hardware are software and hardware respectively, NOT softwares and hardwares] where it concerns crown coins. The example I previously mentioned of "Dataaholic" instead of "Dataholic" in the game is actually a grammar error, not a typo).
Hello again :), Thank you for reporting all these mistakes, all will be fixed, i might do a tiny update to patch them and tight some loose screws.
regarding your hardware suggestion, i have already set up all future hardware, but i wont say any spoilers... but i might add it as a software, why not!!
As for the achievements they indeed do need some balancing, especially the CPS one, but right now they are not an urgent thing to balance. but even after the balance they will still be kinda ridiculous, but they will get easier as you progress, because some of them are meant for late game.
1. The bug I mentioned in the Bot Manager might also happen even without setting the game to fullscreen mode.
2. If it was a software, it should probably function differently from these ones that add CPS, maybe for a new thing?
3. By "some achievements" I am including the ones that involve tasks and credit or data. E.g. make 256GB data from tasks.
