Different structures raise your production, sometimes by a set value, other times by the value of metal on the Astro. The first of these would be new structures being constructed on your base. Your production can be improved by several different methods. This number is used for figuring out how fast a ship can be built. This should be considered when selecting your next construction project. Many structures you can construct add to your economy. We then multiply that number by 60 to convert it into time, which gives us 7.14 minutes. Basically this means that whatever your construction is, your base can build that much in an hour.įor example, if a base had a construction capacity of 42 and you wanted to build a level 1 shipyard (5 credits), to figure out the building build time the server would do (5/42), which gives us 0.119 to 3 decimal points.

The formula for construction is (Structure Cost/Construction Cap)*60. This then in turn lowers the time it takes to construct the structure. Different structures raise your construction, sometimes by a set value, other times by the value of metal on the Astro.Ĭonstruction commanders also affect your construction, lowering the cost of all structures by 1% per level. Your construction can be improved by several different methods. This number is used for figuring out how fast a structure can be built. Disbanding bases early in the game when you have few bases may cause enough of a discount to make your replacement base free.įor more information about disbanding bases, check out the Disbanding section. For example, if your next base costs 2,000,000 credits, and you disband a base giving you 75,000 credits off, your replacement base will be 175,000 because 1,000,000 (instead of 2,000,000 for having one less base) divided by 4 is 250,000, minus 75,000 discount is 175,000. Disbanding a base gives you a 75% discount on reconstructing the base, as well as an additional discount for the base and the structures on it.
