Buildings

Buildings are the foundation of your economy. They produce resources, generate energy, and store your materials.

---

Production Buildings

These buildings generate resources and energy:

Building	Produces	Consumes
Metal Mine	Metal	Energy
Crystal Mine	Crystal	Energy
Deuterium Synthesizer	Deuterium	Energy
Solar Plant	Energy	Nothing
Fusion Reactor	Energy	Deuterium

---

Storage Buildings

These buildings store your resources:

Building	Stores	Capacity Formula
Metal Storage	Metal	10,000 * floor(2.5 * e^(20*L/33))
Crystal Storage	Crystal	10,000 * floor(2.5 * e^(20*L/33))
Deuterium Tank	Deuterium	10,000 * floor(2.5 * e^(20*L/33))

Building Priorities

Early Game (Levels 1-10)

1. Metal Mine
2. Solar Plant
3. Crystal Mine
4. Deuterium Synthesizer

Mid Game (Levels 10-20)

1. Balance all mines
2. Storage as needed
3. Fusion Reactor on outer planets

Late Game (Levels 20+)

1. Maximize production
2. Consider planet specialization
3. Solar Satellites for energy

Construction Tips

1. Always queue - Never let your build queue be empty. You can queue buildings without the resources on hand; if resources are missing when a build starts, that queue item is canceled.
2. Energy first - Build power before mines to avoid negative energy
3. Robotics Factory - Upgrade to speed construction
4. Nanite Factory - Dramatically reduces build time late game
5. Storage before cap - Don't lose production to full storage
