Intro and requirements

To follow this guide it is essential that you have already registered a company. If you have not then please see the help file section about founding a company then return back to this guide.

OK at this stage you should have started a company but done nothing else yet! If you have do not panic just read on and try to do the bits you have missed. Remember this is only a guide and where this guide uses a specific speciality it does not matter if you choose a different one.

Get your First Buildings

OK before we can start to build we really could do with getting some more money. There are a few ways we can get more cash. The quickest right now is to take a loan.

First Loan

Finding loan on the menu
OK on the main menu located down the left hand side you will find loan located under the section headed as The Bank.
The Loan Screen
Press this option and you should then get the screen shown on the right. On this screen you can see any loans you already have this is the deep red box, at this stage you have no loans. The yellow box shows the loans you could potentially take, at the beginning of the round your initial company value is 5000 so you can borrow 5000. The amount you can borrow is equal to current loans (this is the amount borrowed not amount owed) less your company value.

the orange box is where you can choose how much to borrow, we will ask for 5000. The green box is where you can choose the amount of time you can want to take the loan over. Later in the game you may choose to go for shorter periods. For now please take the loan for 28 days. The blue box shows the interest rate again later in the game we would avoid rates of above 2.5% however at the moment we have no choice we need the loan and will take the rate being offered.

Finely please press the preview button in the red box.
