Explore for 360 turns? You will get cutoff at some point, I think the limit is existing acres?

you can not explore past the point where more than 50% of your land is unbuilt

as long as you wont go over that percentage during your batch, then it is easily possible. you pretty much have to be over 6500 acres as a fully built non rep. as a rep probably closer to 6900 acres givin the current explore rates.

Mrford is right on.

(6533-7027) acres non-R @ 17 x-plore p/turn
(7071-7520) acres R @ 19 x-plore p/turn

You can probably do it at any point your total land is over 10-12k acres and still be far off from having 50% unbuilt

Braden, if you select the link only 5 comments before yours you would find this definition.

Batch Exploring

When you explore, you can designate a certain number of turns to explore with. Your acres-per-turn explore rate is not recalculated between each explored turn. Batch Exploring means using a full batch of turns (86, 120, 126, or 160 turns depending on your server) to explore with all at once. So for example, if your explore rate was 22 acres per turn, you would find roughly 22 acres * FullTurns. You will not grow as fast exploring in smaller bits and pieces.

Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.

I think I have tried this before. your only problem is you won't have turns to build after.. :P well you'll have to wait 4 minutes each build.. good luck with your land though..

all explore is when you explore all your turns. damn 50% restriction gets in the way though so you need to build a few times.
