A mysterious Chinese base



LifeOnMars is above all a simulation game of a base on Mars and the management of the vegetation should not be too complicated.
For the vegetation, I relied on articles indicating that Martian colonists could use bacteria to fix nitrogen from the Martian atmosphere in the soil. I remind you that nitrogen is an essential element in the creation of plant matter. A plant also needs water, but that of Mars would be brackish. The use of bacteria to purify it is therefore also necessary. For chosen vegetation, I read an article indicating that a derivative of alfalfa might be a good candidate.
I therefore have three research directions for my laboratories:
- Search for bacteria enriching the sterile soil of Mars with nitrogen.
- Search for water purifying bacteria.
- Search for an alfalfa derivative that can grow on Mars.
To this, I added the search for an automatic seeder. The search for new buildings is a standard in management games.

Even in a solitary management game, an antagonist can bring salt to the game.

So I decided to add a new player : Xi JinPing GPT. It is obvious to me that the Chinese government will participate in the race to Mars. Human is so made that he always tries to do better than others without often asking himself the interest of the subject of the competition.
The program simulating the Chinese player will therefore have its own facilities and will compete with the player. The idea is not to win a war on Mars, but to add an element of veracity that will certainly present itself in the future. We already see the great powers fighting over portions of the Moon even before a base is established there.
