RESOURCES AND LAB

Resource & Lab System


Basic Resource

There are 7 types of resources:

- 4 (raw) resources: Promethium (red), Endurium (blue), Terbium (yellow), Xenomit (silver, but cannot be found in space)
- 3 processed resources: Prometid (pink), Duranium (green), Promerium (yellow/orange)

Gain Resources

Promethium, Endurium, Terbium

Collect: They float in space and can be collected with your ship.
- Map X-1: Promethium, Endurium
- Map X-2: Promethium, Endurium, Terbium
- Map X-3 / X-4: Endurium, Terbium

By shooting down space ships:
- Strainer: each 10 Promethium, Endurium
- Lordakia: each 20 Promethium, Endurium, Terbium
- Saimon: each 40 of all 3 resources as well as 2 Prometid and 2 Duranium

Xenomit

Can be auctioned with credits or bought instantly with Uridium in the store.
Shot down spaceships may also drop Xenomit.

Prometid, Duranium, Promerium
Process: these resources can be processed by the 4 raw materials mentioned above. The recepies can be found in the Hangar under the Laboratory. They can also be obtained by shooting down enemies.

Resource Store

All resources are always in the cargo hold of your ship. The stored amount can be seen in the lab. Resources can be lost if your ship is destroyed.
Xenomit is special as it can be obtained by shooting down spaceships, which however is not always the case.

Use of Resource

- Sell them for credits in your own company base (Map X-1): al l resources except Xenomit
- Process in the lab
- Upgrade your weapon with processed resources.

The advantages for processing resources, selling and weapon upgrades

- Processing results in less cargo space requirements (as more raw materials are processed into less processed ore).
- Selling processed resources will result in less income than selling the required raw resources.
- Weapon upgrades:
1.Prometid: one unit will increase the firepower of lasers and rockets by 15% for 10 shots (up to 1000 shots can be improved).
2. Duranium: one unit will increase the generator performance of either the propulsion or shield by 10% for 10 minutes.
3. Promerium: one unit will increase the firepower by 30% or the generator performance by 20%.


Bonus Crates

Bonus crates are small crates which are scattered in space which contain valuable items.
Bonus crates can be found on all maps.



In the bonus crates you will find:

- Class I or II laser ammunition
- Credits
- Uridium (approx. 6%)
- for every jackpot
The amount is randomized.
Tip: On the Battle maps of 4-X you will always receive 50% than on normal maps

The cargo-Box contains different things depending on map NPC or enemy ship:



Prometium:



Endurium:



Terbium:
