I have around 150 rank points and I haven't decided what to do with them.

Option A: Turn them into approximately 300 defensive helmsmen adding 300 defensive points. My defense is already 4322 so it would only amount to something around 7% gain.

Option B: Turn them into approximately 300 tactical officers adding 300 attack points. About a 9% gain

Option C: More scientist but I am already running out of things to research. And the toys that I have developed are to expensive to build anyway.

Option D: More deck space but I already have about 120 decks that are empty.

Option E: More cargo space. I already can't log in enough to keep my arts low so I get mass storage pods all the time.

Option F: Engineers but I already wait 16 hours for my energy to fill as it is

I am open to suggestions.

I would say tactical officers. helmsmen and scientists you can get from androids. I would say decks, but it is clear you don't need more.

If you're running out of stuff to research, suggest to Dan that he needs to work on more since you're starting to bump the limit.

Research is a whole other problem though. With the current set up I cannot build the modules I have already "discovered". The top end of the research trees cost 900 Kurenite and 1.5 Billion credits.

I already pay 1.4 billion in daily maintenance. With the mineral cap and not being able to log on every 5 hours, I can't save enough to get ahead.

wow you really have 120 decks you have no use for?

This will never happen to me ...

I suggest you change race then )) Sillix ain't interesting if you have too many decks already

My deck bonus is 10% so by changing my race I would lose about 300 decks, can't afford that right now.

Why not? Everything you got equiped will still be equiped after changing race. And if you still swap around modules put those points on decks..

1.4 billion maintainence? How the hell is that even possible?

It is very possible that is why I keep telling those people posting on the site saying they have too much money to save it..... You will need it, not to mention hundreds of millions it is to colonize a new planet.

Now Kaos if you did pay for so much gl to power lv so much you would not be in this situation, but to show you how wrong you are about people, I will tell you in your situation the best bet for your men is to put the in either attack or defense.

even more so knowing that your atack is only 2900 it might be good to go defence, because i know many that have over 5k atack.

How do you even get 1.4 billion per day just to pay for that maintainence? I get 22 million from selling roughly 2,000 minerals total per shipment. Does that mean I need to get 200,000 minerals per day to afford that maintainence? (22 million per shipment with 2,000 minerals x 100 = 2.2 billion)

At my current level, i gain 2-300 million credits pe 24 hour from the minerals, since hes a lot higher level than i and probably got alot more mineral-planets then i, he would probably gain alot more her 24 hour period.

no the better the planet and higher the lv = more of the richer minerals you get.

You get that by having modules that cost between 1 and 2 billion dollars. Multiply that by the original cost of each module on your ship. Then multiply that total cost by 5% and there is your answer.

For example"
30 modules averaging $1,00,000,000 = $30,000,000,000
$30,000,000,000 x 5% = $1,500,000,000 upkeep

While I make a bunch of money in minerals per hour, I reach the maximum amount I can store in about 5 hours. That means if I can't get to a computer or am sleeping, I lose billions of dollars. Yesterday I estimated between sleeping and being in a meeting all day I lost about 2.2 billion.

I'm sorry, can we put this one to bed? Dan has stated on several occasions that the only thing that affects the quality of minerals you receive is your rank. Nothing else.

Ok can we put this to bed let me explain what was said, question how do you make that much…….. Answer, no the better the planet and higher the lv = more of the richer minerals you get

The better the planet the more you make per hr were a 1x will make you way more than a poor. The higher the lv the more you get. Is that better for you.
