Important: Information is subject to change during development

Food

One of the complex resources for the sustenance of a population, food is used for population growth and survival of ship crews. Food is generated by consumption of ore and fuel on stations and planets. Once on a station, it can then be transported to ships. Ships have a storage of food for their crew. In the circumstance that a crew decides to abandon ship the escape pods will have a limited amount of food.

Fuel

One of the basic resources, fuel can be mined from asteroids and deep core mining. Fuel is used for FTL travel and food generation. Ships store fuel and must be replenished after a certain number of jumps. If a ship depletes its fuel reserves, the ship can still travel but only at sub-light speeds which will take it substantially longer to reach its destination.

Money

Money is one of the basic resources and is created by the taxation of the population. All population is taxed, generating income, even crew serving on ships. Money can be used for creation of officers, ships, stations, research and more.

Munitions

Munitions are one of complex resources needed for the armament and efficacy of ships. They are generated by consumption of ore and fuel. Munitions must be physically transferred to ships. If a ship runs out of munitions the ship cannot fire and perform it's combat role.

Ore

One of the basic resources, ores can be mined from asteroids. Ores are used for the construction of all vessels and stations, as well as food generation. To improve production, refineries can be used. Ore can also be mined by deep core mining a planet, though this carries a risk, as deep core mining destabilizes the gravitational field of the planet, causing orbital stations to de-orbit, leading to the loss of the station.

Population

One of the basic resources, population is created on planets and moons that are colonized. Population is used during ship construction for fulfilling crew requirements, and also during officer training. Population will also be needed for stations. They provide money in the form of tax income. Crew members in space will provide less income than those on planets.

Supplies

One of the complex resources, supplies are generated by the consumption of ore and fuel. Supplies can be found on supply ships. They are carried from stations on the supply ship to other ships in need of resupplying. When resupplying they can be transformed into munitions or food for the ship.
