Containment

Containment is a Starfleet Hired Guns building. It is only available on the Resource Vault Territory. The purpose of Containment is to hold resources until they are they collected, similar to the way storage buildings such as Ore Warehouse allow the corresponding mine to operate. Higher levels allow more resources (all three kinds together) to accumulate. This determines the maximum amount of resources that can be transferred off-planet at a time.

Requirements

Containment must be built on a Resource Vault. It cannot be built beyond the Production Link level.

Cost and Effect

Containment has the same formula for its capacity as other storage buildings:

Capacity = 50,000 · (⌈1.6^Level⌉ + 1)
