Mav, you can run everything at 100% if you have enough energy, if you have an energy short fall try lowering production in less essential materials by 10% until you get energy in the green again
at this stage metal is your focus

start like this

solar 1
metal 1 then 2
solar 2
metal 3, then crystal 1
go on like that for a bit then gradually start adding facilities, robotics 1 should be you first, decreases build times

g00b - absolutely. You need it to build a shipyard. But, all it will do until you're ready to build a shipyard is decrease the build times of other buildings and then not enough to make it worthwhile. Build up your resource mining first.

you simply need more power. I'm in same boat, need more power. bahhhhhh the gain of solar plant and solar sat. doesn't really justify the cost of either one. fusion doesn't either so far. but ya gotta have it, one way or another.

It would be nice if the more advanced planets (players) could send supplies to the newbs.

Something like 5-10% of your production--it would kickstart a lot of us just starting out and we can conquer more quickly.

!All your base are belong to us!

I will be trying to do that asap righty, I'm currently broke at 442 metal, 1116 crystal, and 1176 Deut

my small raiding force consists of 2 light cargos and 2 light fighters, as soon as I build another light cargo I'll see what I can do regarding providing resources to the newer players.

Righty, Ive been trying to get myself off the ground, I'll beable to send supplies tomorrow.

Pretty much in the same boat as Pugg right now. 2 light freighters and a light fighter. It's going to take me a little time to build up to where I can afford to start sharing the wealth - very little to go around at the moment.

Awesome!

I have 175 metal, 35 Crystal, 37 Deut.

How do you send a circular message? I click on the message tab, but don't see a nice button to reply to a circular message or create a new one.

Thanks in advance

You need transports. Go to fleet, set how many transports you have or want to send. Proceed. Enter their location at top. Choose transport and how much you want to send on right side. And send.
