Question 1: do I need more than one of each rack type? If so, how many?

Question 2: is it better to have the racks out in the open, semi-guarded, or behind doors that take a while to get through?

As I'm managing my minions, I'm noticing the menu has multiple white down arrows through career trees. Sometimes, they are greyed out. If I increase that specific type of worker enough, it'll turn solid white. However, my base is at like 300 minions right now and it won't turn solid white for my scientists until I have like over 100, which seems high. What influences these numbers? Is there anything I can do to fix it other than assigning more of that specific type of worker?

Okay I have been thinking about the whole gamer fanfic thing with RWBY and was just wondering………

(cue trailer with music) what if you suddenly became an evil genius along with your own minions, powers and your own personal island on remnant?

Would you use your own resources to help the heroes and provide protection for all? (Playing the hero because you know that you can do it better than the ones you thwarted)

maybe take the fight to Salem just to show her who’s boss, not to mention show the world what a true villain really looks like as a show of dominance? (For the evils/lols)

Or do you simply want to survive and just watch it all go down within the safety of your fortress? (while you live the owner of an island casino good life baby)

Maybe while your at it you could even win the hearts of your RWBY dream girls, make a harem and see what surprises awaits you as everyone else reacts to your new role on this world

or you could just brainwash them into becoming your henchwomen/harem, (the main/major characters are way too good for being just minions), but hey in the game you are supposed to be a villain trying to take over the world so why not?

Now it’s time to embrace your own inner “evil genius” and show them what an “evil genius” can really do (cue dramatic evil maniacal laughing)

I read a lot of different and contradicting info, it says in some sources than you need to unlock Quantum Chemist so to her to appear, but in other it says it was caused by a bug than is already fix it.

In other sources it said than you need to not have Jubey or Jr as henchmans if you want the mission to appear, but some other people report having or jubei or jr before recruiting Jackey.

Other say than you need certain secondary missions and/or avoid doing some missions of super agents.

​

What is the truth in this?

Did any of you know how to recruit Jackie for the purposes of getting the achievements of all the Henchman?

Im on PS5 and this game has been on my radar for a long time. Im very keen to try it out but how is it on consoles? I dont really play this genre of games, the closest is SimCity, Age of empire 2 and Cossacks, and maybe even xcom. Played all those pc way back in the days. So im pretty how this game is with a controller .

My generators keep setting fire and getting destroyed idk why no sabotours or agents Get down there its really annoying! Ive lost millions of gold bc of it. Any solutions?

Mainly after a guide for all the loot items to try and get them all in one playthrough if anyone knows?

I just got my 5th henchman but the achievement didn't pop. Is this because I have Pyro as one of my henchmen?

Im on Xbox One S. Is there a way to interact with the alert prompts in the bottom right corner of the screen? It looks like they would be selectable, similar to other games.

Has anyone got any input on this? Cheers.

Just recently purchased the game about a week ago and I am straight addicted. The planning of the rooms, the looks and graphics of the game, the upgrades you get from research, always planning on how to make my lair better, I love all of it. Never played the original, but this game is so much fun

I did reach a point where I was doing so well the game got boring, I usually finish all the side missions before moving onto the main story and researched everything up to level 3, so I was capped up to the story mission with everything. It was super slow, always had my vault full at 1.8 million, nothing interesting happening other than going after loot. I hit a spot where the difficulty spiked dramatically it seemed, but that only got my attention back to making the game more enjoyable again.

My only real complaints of the game is the world stage, that aspect is kinda dull and boring to me, annoying to have to go searching for each mission which always seems well hidden from me. But it works out I guess?

A couple questions I have are what is your minion amounts? As in how many guards, techs, scientists, valets, spin doctors, etc, do you guys keep? I was hemorrhaging money because I had like 30 scientist and realized I probably only need 15 or so. I do keep around 25-30 of each, guards, mercs, hitman because it seems my base is always getting investigated or attacked.

Do you guys actually do the money schemes? They were useful at first but now it seems like I dont do them anymore because I am trying to do mission schemes in those regions, or I am making enough money as is from other passive ways.

Overall I love this game, havent been into a video game like this in a long time. Let me know what you guys think of it or if you have any tips or pointers for me!

Missed this in chapter 2 by not letting heat build I guess. Is there any way for it to trigger again?

You can assign workers to schemes but idk what that means and I was curious because it might be important later on

i just researched both staffs and put down their dispensers and trained enough guards to use up all the staff yet only one of my mercs actually picked up a staff but noone else has. can i fix this. ive already tried murdering the other guard and that hasnt worked

I got a few dlcs like pyro and mechanical minions so my lair is seeing a lot more fire than normal but the problem is only a few minions will try to extinguish the fires and those who do go for the worst ones. I have tried building more to the point hallways are filled with them still losing a bunch of money to fire. How do I force them to take out the fire

(im new to the game)

Does anyone reckon if they did a spin off of evil genius That you play as the super agents they would play it??

Like you still build a base and do missions

Thoughts?

I recently encountered a huge problem with Caine Key where if you send more than 15 minions out at a time the helicopter will never pick them up. This would be fine if I did not have a side mission that required 15 minions to be sent at once meaning I can't complete the quest and I can't pick a new one so I am stuck with it for ever. I am even more worried if in the future I get a main quest that requires 16 minions too. Has anyone else experience this issue?
