Buildings
From Star Fury Manual
Buildings
Buildings are constructed on free land, and mines are constructed on free asteroids. Each Land Building costs the same, however mines are not built on land, thus they have a different cost. The cost for each Building will go up as the number of built buildings go up. The minumum cost for each building stays until you get 100 land or 100 asteroids. THen it starts going up. When you first start you have 100 available land, and 50 Residences and 50 Power Planets already built. All buildings take sixteen ticks to construct to begin with (until/if you research advanced buildings, where this time is halved), and can not function until they have finished building (a certain number will be built each tick, with the last completed after 16 ticks).
The Following Buildings can be constructed:
Asteroid Buildings
Tri-Lithium Mines:
Each Mine produces 150 Credits Per tick. (200 Credits per hour with Advanced Mines research). Mines are the primary source of Credits. Without credits you would not be able to maintain your ships, so mines are vital. If you lose asteroids to another empire, any mines on the asteroids taken are destroyed, with the free asteroids transferred to the attacker.
2. Metal Mines: can only be constructed on asteroids. Each Mine produces 5 metal per tick. Metal is used in the construction of star ships.
3. Deuterium Mines: can only be constructed on asteroids. Each Mine produces 2 Deuterium per tick. Deuterium is used in the construction of star ships, and to power your Warp Shields.
4. Residences: can only be constructed on land. They give your people a place to live and allows your population to expand. Each residence holds 50 Population, and helps fill your empty residences by 2 per tick. For every 100 population there will be a use of 1 power every tick. Your recruits per tick are your population*0.005. You can train these recruits into cadets, which are used to man your ships. If you lose land to another empire, any buildings on the land taken are destroyed, with the free lan transferred to the attacker.
5. Fusion plants: supply your empire with vital power. It is used to supply power to your residences, to build your ships and to power your Shields. Power plants supply 1 power per hour (2 power per hour with advanced power plants). Each power plant can hold a power reserve of 100 (150 with advanced power plants). Ship construction requires power equivalent to the ships power core for initial construction, but not as a maintenance cost.
6. Fabrication Plants: produce probes each hour. It takes 2 Fab plants to produce 1 probe(with Advanced fabrication plants you get 0.75 probes/plant). Probes are used to gather intelligence on other empires. The more probes your empire has, the harder it is for other empires to gather intelligence on yours.
7. Defence Platforms: are used to defend your empire against attack. They are ground-to-space defence turrets which can fire at ships attempting to attack your empire. Defence Platforms give 20 Defence points per platform, but are only effective in siege prevention. One will be destroyed for each 500 damage points your enemy has, or when you don't have any ships docked, one for each 100 damage. They are generally ineffctive if you have a low number of them.
8. Research Labs: are used to develop new technologies. You can only research one thing at a time. Each research lab produces 2 research points per hour. The more Research labs you build, the faster your researches will be finished.
