 July 6, 2012 - 6:11pm | So, I'm still plodding along in the background playing Conquest. I built my free factory this week when Tim introduced them. I make radiators. I checked with my brother and he makes radiators in his shiney new factory too. I see that Karxan has a factory. I don't know about anyone else. So, who has built a factory and what does your factory make? Shall we test out this new trading thing? -iggy |
 July 12, 2013 - 3:50am | Rockers I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
 July 12, 2013 - 5:31am | Well, it's specific to the one you unlocked as that is the one that has to get the materials. I unlocked 2 different ones and they had the same thing until I upgraded them regularly and then they changed. Probably best to try it yourself and see how it works as I could be remembering incorrectly, it's been a while. As for trading, sure. I just need to build some cargo ships. Ad Astra Per Ardua!

July 12, 2013 - 11:25am | Ok that wasn't hard I just transported material to toms fleet. checking my unlocked stations (I have no more unlock slots left) I dont require any pillars or radiators and I barely require my own rockers. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
July 12, 2013 - 1:11pm | Yeah, I didn't realize there were so many different kinds of components. You really need a large group of factories (8+?) to get all the different parts. That means that many players as a given player can only produce one type. Ad Astra Per Ardua!

July 12, 2013 - 6:09pm | just transferred 2000 conveyers to jedion directly to his factory. Did you get a message or notification that this happened? I tried to transfer 2000 conveyers to TerlObar but his factory is full. I see a benifit to the factories being close together. -iggy |
July 12, 2013 - 6:58pm | Send them to my fleet. It has 2000 capacity left. And I didn't get any sort of message when jedi transfered stuff to them. Ad Astra Per Ardua!

July 12, 2013 - 9:50pm | OK, I finished the long upgrade and did another unlock and yes it changed to something new. Unfortunately it is Solder 5400 and Assembly 3600 which we don't have. I put a fleet out by my station with space for one of you to place 2000 resources in it. Then I'll put them in my factory and the next guy can put 2000 resources in it. My factory is full holding all this other stuff. Maybe we should agree to each not hold the same stuff until we can afford to expand our factory capacities. -iggy |
July 13, 2013 - 4:16am | I think I might do a round of factory and transport upgrades. My most recent science upgrade should give me 20/20 for collossi attack/defense and I was going to do Swingers next to get them to 20/20and was considering boosting speed for fighters and SY but perhaps transports and factories need to be looked at in the short run. I really wish we could just transfer stuff to silos. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
July 13, 2013 - 9:38am | Factories are their own silos. I just don't want to build another factory. I have wondered if I had two factories in two different locations, then I could move resources across the map by dumping into one factory and then loading them out of the other factory into another fleet. I upgraded and checked my unlocked station and it didn't change from Solder 5400, Assembly 3600. I suspect it is because I have unlocked collect level 19 on that station and I did not upgrade collect level on that station to clear it. -iggy |
July 13, 2013 - 12:16pm | I got Jedion's 2000 rockers in my factory. My fleet is empty and ready for TerlObar's 2000 pillars. -iggy |
