Colonization Guide
- This can be unlocked by fulfilling the “Colonization” project just to the right of the middle of the Projects Tree.
- While this can be unlocked early on in the game, it is not very advisable to spend a lot of resources on this as a new player.
- When unlocked, Colonization symbols will appear above planets.
- When clicked, they show the resources needed to build the colony.
- If you have enough resources, the offer symbol will turn green.
- A fulfilled request will grant you a bonus of x1.25 mine rate or x1.5 ship speed or cargo.
- Colony Requests (CR) unlock at the following levels:
- (Amount of upgrades to Mining + Ship Speed + Cargo)
- CR 1: 5 upgrade levels.
- CR 2: 25 total upgrade levels.
- CR 3: 50 total upgrade levels.
- etc.
- (Amount of upgrades to Mining + Ship Speed + Cargo)
- The maximum number of colonies on a planet (without using terraforming) is CR 10: 225 total upgrade levels (fastest way to get there is mine rate/speed/cargo all on 75).
- Every time a colony offer is fulfilled, the game checks for the first available planet on which to put a new offer, starting from the lowest planet.
- This will start at P1 – Balor and move upward through the planets until:
- A planet has enough upgrades for colony request, and
- There is room for more requests on the planet. (Any planet with 10+ requests fulfilled, including terraforming, will not be able to colonize further).
- This will start at P1 – Balor and move upward through the planets until:
- Colonization rooms: Terrarium which decreases colonization prices and Planet Relations which Increases colonizing bonuses.
Notes to Consider
Complete colonization is not, as of yet, as effective as it could be.
For most users, you either:
- Use resources you need to gain GV to colonize, thus not being able to use them for Project Tree Research/Selling for COH gains, or You are beyond the point colony requests will be useful for increasing asteroid/debris size
Colonization requests, even after maxing Terrarium (Colonization price reduction) room and getting Space Station colony cost reductions, are absolutely way too expensive for practical use currently.
In most situations, by the time you unlock a colony level request on a planet, it will no longer matter or benefit you.
The Terraforming Project Tree research projects on the other hand are absolutely overpowered and provide amazing boosts to your vps planets.
Hopefully this guide helped you!
