Clients & orders

Mara needs cabinets. Ivo needs proofs. Dr. Sen needs repeatable references.

QUARTER TURN ARCADE / Mara

Small flexible batches for repaired arcade cabinets.

Any board / Economical or Throughput / at least 10% share

8 qualifying order units complete a normal batch for 12 CR. First order +24 CR welcome payment. Three orders earn a brass arcade token and calibration licence.

NORTHLINE DESIGN / Ivo

Reserve most of one machine for a studio proof batch. Pausing is always fine.

RIVA 128 or newer / at least 60% on one machine

40 qualifying order units complete a normal batch for 85 CR. 85 CR per order. Throughput advances proofs 25% faster. First order earns a calibration licence.

ATLAS INSTRUMENTS / Dr. Sen

Certified samples from a dedicated validation configuration.

Validation configuration / at least 20% share / licence required

24 qualifying order units complete a normal batch for 28 CR. First reference: 120 XP and 120 CR commissioning covered. Two references earn an Atlas plaque.

Accept, then assign

  1. Accept the client at Production → Client board.

  2. Give a suitable machine a compatible configuration and that client assignment.

  3. Set a share at or above the client minimum. Apply the complete setup.

  4. Run production. Server-accepted work advances qualifying orders and pays completed ones.

Base pay and order progress are different

An incompatible board/configuration earns no base pay for that assignment. A compatible share below the client minimum can earn base pay, but does not advance the order. The assignment screen distinguishes these cases.

Orders repeat while accepted. Holding a client preserves partial progress; resuming requires accepting it again. Switching assignments also preserves normal client progress. There are no order deadlines or penalties for pausing or closing the game. Rack dispatch selection is different: changing its job discards its partial progress.

Validation is unlocked by three Quarter Turn orders or one Northline proof. Northline needs a RIVA 128 or newer and at least 60% on one machine. Throughput adds 25% proof progress, but only if your infrastructure can support it.

A useful early split

After the lab opens, 70% Northline on one bench and 30% Atlas Validation on another can progress two client relationships simultaneously. Those shares divide each accepted receipt; they do not duplicate it. Keep both clients accepted, fit eligible cards and compare the resulting capacity limits.
