There's a blue guy who has a weird lookin b - is that banned or is there a normal b for banned?

1 red (v) guy too

Anyway, I'd like to begin espionage on the whitey to prepare my invasion accordingly...

And how do I harvest debris fields on other solar systems of my galaxy?

well you have to build espionage probes to spy on people.

when you build one, click on Galaxy, then you click the little eye icon to the right of planet name. when it says "done" at the bottom in green, click on overview and wait for your spy to reach the planet, when it reaches, click on overview again, and then read the new message to see what's up. if he has a espionage technique higher than yours, he can hide stuff...

you need a recycler to harvest debris fields... click on technology to see what you need for a recycler. when you build a recycler, you note down the coordinates, than click on Fleet, choose a reycler, and than on the coordinates screen, you pick "DF" instead of "Planet" than proceed and harvest

thanks turk

hm

I just calculated that at precisely 11:03 I can build my lvl 10 solar plant. I should be worried shouldn't I...

:laugh:

from what i understand, you would be better off to spy on Greenie.

the b dude has been banned
and the red V dude is on vacation.

you also need to build ships to spy.

im rsrching Enrg Level 2 now. (fvck 45 minutes)

So robo factories speed regular builds up like mines, other buildings, defenses and ships? What speeds research up? New lvls of research building?

Spy on greenie? But I can't attack...

read that wrong.

i dont know what speeds research up.

higher the research lab level is, faster the research not 100% sure though.. never bothered to check the validity

If you click on the resources option on the left, that'll bring up a table. The numbers represent how many are added per hour. So it may take 2minutes for 1 at the moment, but eventually it'll be like 2 a second lol. It'll update when you change page or load the same page again. Don't click refresh, or back or anything, it's all within that one page effectively.

a guy i know gets about 12,000 metals per hour... he is on level 27 or 28 on it though..

its pointless to go above those levels on most mines because they cost so high, it would take like a month to get back what you spent on a mine at level 30.

 

[pontifex]

can you trade resources between other players? if so, can you trade between universes?

 

[LeonarD26]

I believe you can trade between other players, but not between universes.

 

[letdown427]

Damn solar power. i'm saving up for it, then it's just going to eat all of my metal/crystal resources. grrr.

 

[Malladine]

yeah tell me about it

lvl 11 solar plant takes 4300 metal...that's over 6.5 hours after I upgrade to lvl 9 metal mine early this afternoon. I have other things to build so i might be able to start it off before I go to bed tonight...

[Malladine]

welcome to the party!

 

[letdown427]

24 members! w00t! we're up to 480 in the alliance listings. I reckon we might start climbing quite quickly, as we're all going to reach the higher levels at a similar time.

I can't decide whether to go defensive or not. I think <dramatic voice> for the alliance </end dramatic voice> it's a safer bet to go defensive, as you're less likely to have resources stolen, and building up defenses could mean the points are more secure. I don't know though. As faster gains are to be had attacking.

Can't wait for lots of metal and my very own 133t f133t lol.



Welcome fisher!

Go for the metal! lol

letdown, where are you in the system? I'm at position 10 and get 73/hr deuterium production at lvl 4 synthesizer.

I'm at position 11, i apparently would get 74/hr deuterium on level 4 (i'm on level 3 atm) So maybe the individual galaxies even have slightly different characteristics aswell? weird

 

[Malladine]

that makes sense, you get 1 more per hour than I do at 1 position further from the sun.

 

[MikeMike]

im in the material collecting stage so i can get Solar level 11 and higher Metal/Crystal/Deterium mines. i have to do a few other lil things but i should be able to build base defenses soon enough

 

[Icepick]

Guys,

I just submitted my application for alliance membership a few minutes ago.

User name: Icepick
Planet name: Priapus
Location: 2:139:12

 

[letdown427]

Welcome aboard then. It'll be accepted as soon as whoever it is that accepts them accepts it. You just starting out or are you experienced?



Teknidude and eatthebaby are in the same galaxy, next door to each other. how cool. I'm all alone here in 136

 

[Icepick]

I'm a complete n00b to this. I just created my planet and am building a metal mine right now

 

[letdown427]

cool, good choice! metal is most important when starting.

metal solar metal metal crystal solar etc

you'll probably notice most of the buildings take loads of metal and a bit of crystal.

don't worry about deuterium for a while. Metal is also good to work on so that you have a nice resource stash tomorrow morning.lol. it starts of slwly. in fact, i'm still in the slow building up stage, after joining two days ago.

what increases your production efficiency? that number you see on top of the resoruces table which starts at 0.5

The production factor basically represents whether your mines are operating at full efficiecny. if you don't have enough power to run all the mines, the production factor drops. the maximum is 1, i think, for 100% efficient.

 

[lozina]

Cool just performed my first galaxy scan

I got 3 inactive players, 5 strong players and 1 white player in my system.

One of them is from the LS alliance

edit: Is this my position next to my planet name? (2:131:11)

edit2: how do I send messages to you people like you are sending to me?

 

[Icepick]

In just under an hour I built a level 3 metal mine, a level 1 crystal mine, and a level 2 power plant. Now my metal is depleted. Looks like my building is finished for the day. Not bad for a day's work . So what's a good build strategy for someone just starting out? Is there anything else I can do while I wait for my metal reserve to replenish itself? (metal is currently at 20 )

 

[Malladine]

So what's a good build strategy for someone just starting out?

Focus metal, solar and crystal for your first 48hrs at least, maybe adding a deuterium synthesizer or two along the way. 54hrs in and i have the following:

m9
c7
d4
s10
and a lvl 1 robo factory

if that helps

 

[flashbacck]

is it possible for us to defend each other?

And I'm still a bit unclear on this concept of "fleetsaving." That sounds like you're just moving your fleet so it doesn't get targeted. But doesn't that leave your planet (and resources) completely undefended?

yes, that's your position

to send a message, click on "Alliance" and then click "Send Circular Mail"

well, the way you can help someone is, attack someone that's attacking them. when that player sees that they are getting attacked, hopefuly they will pull back their fleet to defend their resources.

fleetsaving: you put all your resources in your cargo ships, then send them away along with your attack ships, when the attack is over, you can call them back and have your resources back. at the same time, the attacker goes back home empty handed

this leaves your planet unprotected (unless you have built some sort of defense), but what do you have to lose when you have no resources on the planet? he cannot destroy your buildings or research, so its a pointless war and most likely he'll pull back his attacking fleet
