Bio-Dome
Stable food despite climate.
What it does
Produces climate-stable food even on harsh planets.
Bio-domes buffer extreme temperatures and make food production more predictable. Strong on difficult colonies.
What it enables
Makes difficult colonies viable and protects growth from temperature penalties.
Cost for level 1
Building time depends on the planet’s Robotics Factory and Nanite Factory levels and on the universe speed, so it is not a fixed number.
Cost per level
Each level multiplies the previous cost by ×1.8, so each further level gets steadily more expensive the further you push it.
| To level | Metal | Crystal | Deuterium |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 3,000 | 2,000 | 500 |
| 2 | 5,400 | 3,600 | 900 |
| 5 | 31,493 | 20,996 | 5,249 |
| 10 | 595,078 | 396,719 | 99,180 |
| 15 | 11,244,402 | 7,496,268 | 1,874,067 |
Requirements
None — available from the start, with no research or building gate.
How each race builds it
The four races share the same building rules but not the same hardware — each one names and renders it differently, and applies its own combat multipliers from its race profile.
