Orbital Shipyard

Orbitale capaciteit voor grote projecten.

What it does

Verplaatst de zware productie naar een baan om de planeet en voegt vlootbouw met hoge capaciteit toe.

Orbitale werven halen de druk van de planetaire productie en maken zware vlootprogramma's beheersbaar.

What it enables

Voegt parallelle productiecapaciteit toe voor late vloten en speciale scheepsprogramma's.

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 ×2, so each further level gets steadily more expensive the further you push it.

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 Orbital Shipyard — Terran Directorate building
Terran Orbital Shipyard
Standard Directorate infrastructure with broad operational reliability.
Lattice Orbital Shipyard — Auralith Concord building
Lattice Orbital Shipyard
Crystalline infrastructure grown around resonant mineral channels.
