MadMartinB Posted September 9, 2003 Report Share Posted September 9, 2003 I figured we might as well start a discussion on installations and the paths to get there. Domed City: Reduces Atmosphere Attrition, Costs 5000 Improved CM and takes 2G Civil Engineering and Improved CM Thermal Transfer Center: Extends lower temperature range to -90 (from home world). Takes 250,000 Improved Coinstuction Material; 1 Population and consumes 25,000 power Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
President Guztov Posted September 9, 2003 Report Share Posted September 9, 2003 Sounds good to me. heres one.. Orbital crystal refinery 500 improved CM's to construct. uses no power soaks up 50 raw materials and spits out 10 improved refined crystals. Needs improved CM and advanced refined crystals research. Im assuming as I recieved this installation when I researched advanced refined crystals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOTEC Posted September 9, 2003 Report Share Posted September 9, 2003 Orbital crystal refinery500 improved CM's to construct. uses no power soaks up 50 raw materials and spits out 10 improved refined crystals. Thank you for that President Guztov. What is the Orbital part? Does it need 1 population as normal? Looks like a very good return on the investment.

ShadowKitsune Posted September 10, 2003 Report Share Posted September 10, 2003 President Gutzov - How does one attain said Orbital Refinery? Improved Crystals + ??? Thanks, -SK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
President Guztov Posted September 10, 2003 Report Share Posted September 10, 2003 Once i researched advanced refined crystals i got that construct. You also need improved CM's as its required to actually build one. They are nice indeed but not in the longrun I dont think as you will eventually require advanced refined crystals for all the advanced electronic items you wish to build.

ShadowKitsune Posted September 10, 2003 Report Share Posted September 10, 2003 What you are telling me is that I need to research ADVANCED Crystals in order to build an Installation that manufactures IMPROVED Crystals??? I'm never going to figure out this tech tree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTGPete Posted September 10, 2003 Report Share Posted September 10, 2003 What you are telling me is that I need to research ADVANCED Crystals in order to build an Installation that manufactures IMPROVED Crystals??? I'm never going to figure out this tech tree. The idea here is that you've figured out something brand new - Advanced Refined Crystals. With that in mind, your scientists worked out a better way to manufacture the old Improved Refined Crystals. The brand-spanking-new Advanced Refined Crystals are harder to make, so you'll need to use industries for them. Improved Refined Crystals enjoy a level of automation because of the new refining processess that came about during Advanced Refined Crystal research.

ShadowKitsune Posted September 10, 2003 Report Share Posted September 10, 2003 Thanks Pete - I accept the fact that I am niether the sharpest nor brightest crayon in the box. I just get confused by the nomenclature, sometimes. I see Orbital Crystal Refinery and think that I will need to research Improved Crystals, 2nd Gen (or higher) Space Science and 2nd Gen (or higher) Industrial Science. -SK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadMartinB Posted September 10, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2003 It could take 2G Space Science as well. Most of us (the few) who have Orbital Crystal Refineries have all the 2nd Generation items as well.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emanon Posted September 11, 2003 Report Share Posted September 11, 2003 How about Solar Power Plant, Deep Core Heat Sink or even Improved Industrial Complex's, continuing, Cloning Center, Grand Catherdral, Planetary Defense Complex, Atmosphere Exchanger, Anti Matter Power Complex, Geothermal CoreTap, Improved Stripmine's, Terraforming Station, Weather Control Station, Frontier BaseImperial Port Authority Complex, Imperial University, Linear Accelerator, Microbiotic Decontamination Center.

Eldred Posted September 12, 2003 Report Share Posted September 12, 2003 Whilst we are discussing installations, can anyone help me with the pre-requisites for the Fuel Distillation Complex. I suspect 2G Civ Engineering & Improved CM but am not 100% sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurassier Posted September 12, 2003 Report Share Posted September 12, 2003 Along those lines, it would also be nice if the INST order listed the prerequisites neccessary to obtain the installations blueprints..... Look ma, no emoticons! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emanon Posted September 12, 2003 Report Share Posted September 12, 2003 Eldred, along those lines how about Improved Fuel Based on Petes' discussion, wouldn't it make sense once you have improved fuel you can make fuel even easier (see his discussion on Advanced Crystals).
