Благодаря Avenger'у с
оф.форума, мы теперь точно знаем, как обстоят дела с ресурсами. А выглядит все вот так:
Lot's of people have been asking about how the resources work so here is a post hopefully giving you the answers. It should cover all the basics you need to understand about resources and how to increase themI have tried to avoid giving away spoilers, so there are hopefully no mention of late game technologies.
Metal, Chemical, Fuel These are collected from mines you build on the planet. The more mines you have the greater your production, but 1 more mine does not mean your resource level will go up 1 as well.
Level 0 - 0 Mine
Level 1 - 1 Mine
Level 2 - 2 Mines
Level 3 - 4 Mines
Level 4 - 8 Mines
Level 5 - 12 Mines
Level 6 - 16 Mines
Level 7 - 20 Mines
Your resource level can be increased by building storage warehouses to stockpile materials, or by trading with other factions.
Unlike previous games in the series you don't stockpile an amount of each resource. Requirements for building are based on the level of your income rather than the amount you have. As soon as you reach a requirement you can build the item/building. Leaving your mines running will not increase the amount you have, you will need to find more mines to increase your income.
Energy Energy is produced at the solar power plant in Home Base. It produces an energy level of 3. If you want to increase the amount of energy you are producing you will need to research new technology involving fossil fuels.
Water Water comes from the North pole via the pipeline. If the pipeline is attacked and the supply of water to Home Base cut off you only have a few days before all your people die of dehydration. Research into a reservoir will increase the amount of time it takes before you run out of water.
Trading Resources In the Diplomacy screen you can contact friendly factions and Request Resources, or they may be offered to you in a trade. When this happens the faction will offer 1 level of a particular resource in exchange for something. If they ask for resources in exchange you are giving them 1 resource level, not just losing the output of 1 mine. Make sure you are aware of this before agreeing to any deals, as trade deal cannot be broken easily. If you make a bad trade you have to break your alliance and go to war with them to cancel it, and this is not a good situation to be in.
Overview Screen This screen shows you all the regions you have built a geological probe in down the left hand side, and then in the main table what resources are available in the region. Fuel appears as a drop, Chemical as a flask, and Metal as a cube. When you have built a mine on that resource there will be a 5-sided shape around the resource icon. Only when you have built a mine on all the resources you have found will the advisor be happy
Why are some icons yellow? Normal resources are clear and give you 1 income of that resource. A yellow resource is richer mine that produces 2 income - so a yellow mine is equivalent to having 2 normal mines for that resource.
Building Mines First you need to control the region. You do this by sending out the scientific buggy to build a geosonde. Once complete the region is yours and you will be able to see what mines can be built on it when you highlight the region. Select Build and the technicians buggy will be sent to the region to construct the mine.
I think that covers most of the basics, but if you spot anything missing post it below. Remember this is a guide on understanding the basics of how it works, so I have deliberately missed out some resources. By the time they appear you will hopefully already know all of this
Полагаю, это раз и навсегда снимет все возможные вопросы по поводу "... а почему мне не хватает ХХХ?.."
