First Step questions...

[DSP]

Perhaps anyone can help me out. I am looking for some answers to my following questions which I havn´t yet found in the forum here:

1. is there a list where you can see how much incame of ressources each level of mine gives you additional ?

2. is there an error in calculation of metall income? If I click on Government I can read under metall:

Basic income: 20
Metal mines: 241
Energy systems: 5%
Total: 313

That does not make sense. 20+241 = 261. +5% = 274,05.

I really do not understand this. Why is total 313 ???

3. What about this energy

Here I really need some help. How does the energy work. Is it a ressource which you can store or is it just that you produce X energy a tick, you use Y energy a tick and the balance is what you would have available for other things but will not be stored for you in a battery?

If yes the next level of metall mine would cost me every tick 107 energy and I would have to build up solar panels until my balance is 107 or more? Is this right?

So here it would be really nice to have the numbers I asked for in no. 1 to calculate a better start sequence in construciton.

I hope anyone can give me some hints - thanks in advance.

1. I don´t now

2. You forgot to add to the calculation the bonuses of the race you play with:

Noxis
Specifications:
- 25% more income from gas mines
- 15% cheaper ships
- 25% bigger resource storage
- 10% more energy from Solar panels

Terteths
Specifications:
- 15% more income from all mines
- 15% cheaper defence turrets
- Building speed is increased
- 1% bonus to each robot unit in the robots factory

Confederation
Specifications:
- 15% more income from metal mines
- Ship building speed is increased
- 20% more energy from satellites
- Ship upgrades speed is increased

The robots that you asign to work in mines, increase the production as in description:
Every unit located in
* metal mines increases income with 5%
* crystal mines increases income with 4%
* gas increases income with 3%

3. Energy can be gained from Solar Panels and Satelits. Every building you construct or upgrade has an energy requirement. So you cannot build or upgrade if you do not have the required ammount of energy disponible. The energy does not increase per hour, like the others resources. It only can be produced by the 2 ways mencioned. That´s why when you attack someone you can´t steel energy

I hope I answered at least to 2 of your questions.

thank you very much. Helped a lot. Question 1 has been answered by PM.

If I click on the picture Metall Mine in Building Screen, I get the overview :-)

Yet another question came up. The 8 level of solar panels should produce 342 energy. My basic income should be 100. But the total energy produced is only 362. So where is my calculation error in here? Rase Bonus does only apply on energy from satelites, not for solar panels. Is the Basic Income of 100 wrong in it is only 20? Then the calculation would be right?

I am not sure, but i think that the Science Facility has building construction energy on minus.

Edit: Or maybe is because of this:

* Income numbers are not totally accurate +/-5%.

Listed in the Government tab.

When you start the game, you could see, the basic income of energy is 20, not 100.So 20 + 342 = 362.

Science facility 2 lvl can be builded with energy from -20 to + ~.

When you start the game, you could see, the basic income of energy is 20

Just opend a second acount in another universe. It is right. Basic income is only 20, but in the table is written 100. So this must be an error.
