Capitol
The Capitol is your planet's main settlement. It is where all of your buildings are built. By upgrading your Capitol and by assigning workers (Build Droids) to the Capitol, you can increase the speed at which new buildings and upgrades to existing buildings are completed.
The time it takes to build any building is based on the following formula:
| Time(hours) = |
|
Cost and Effect
| Level | Ore Cost | Crystal Cost | Hydrogen Cost | New Build Time % |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 400 | 120 | 200 | 50.00 |
| 2 | 800 | 240 | 400 | 33.33 |
| 3 | 1,600 | 480 | 800 | 25.00 |
| 4 | 3,200 | 960 | 1,600 | 20.00 |
| 5 | 6,400 | 1,920 | 3,200 | 16.67 |
| 6 | 12,800 | 3,840 | 6,400 | 14.29 |
| 7 | 25,600 | 7,680 | 12,800 | 12.50 |
| 8 | 51,200 | 15,360 | 25,600 | 11.11 |
| 9 | 102,400 | 30,720 | 51,200 | 10.00 |
| 10 | 204,800 | 61,440 | 102,400 | 9.09 |
| 11 | 409,600 | 122,880 | 204,800 | 8.33 |
| 12 | 819,200 | 245,760 | 409,600 | 7.69 |
| 13 | 1,638,400 | 491,520 | 819,200 | 7.14 |
| 14 | 3,276,800 | 983,040 | 1,638,400 | 6.67 |
| 15 | 6,553,600 | 1,966,080 | 3,276,800 | 6.25 |
| 16 | 13,107,200 | 3,932,160 | 6,553,600 | |
| 17 | 26,214,400 | 7,864,320 | 13,107,200 | |
| 18 | 52,428,800 | 15,728,640 | 26,214,400 |
Example: a building that cost a combined 5,000 ore and crystal would take 2 hours with level 0 Capitol, 1 hour with a Level 1 Capitol, and 40 minutes with a Level 2 Capitol, etc.
Where capitol level = n and new build time percent = x: x = 1/(n+1)*100.
Note: For a moon's Warp Gate, since there is no Foundry and there are no Workers, etc., to alter the equation, the % time reduction off the initial 100 days is essentially a list of the number of days to produce the Warp Gate from initiation. Hence, with a level 7 Capitol, it takes 12.5 days to complete a Warp Gate.
