Housing Complex

What it does

Increases population capacity for colonists and crew.

Housing raises the population ceiling. More colonists mean stronger bonuses and more room for ships and ground forces.

What it enables

Supports population bonuses, crew-heavy fleets and ground-force growth.

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 ×1.6, so each further level gets steadily more expensive the further you push it.

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.

Terran Housing Complex

Terran Directorate

Standard Directorate infrastructure with broad operational reliability.

Lattice Housing Complex

Auralith Concord

Crystalline infrastructure grown around resonant mineral channels.

Brood Housing Complex
