General Discussion / One mining can supply 20 colonies?
« on: July 03, 2022, 07:06:58 PM »
If there is a guide for this stuff somewhere, plz point me to it because I have looked and couldn't fine it.
I am very confused about the "in-faction" imports and how much they supply each other. I have tried to figure it out by deleting and rebuilding mining and refining, but my results are very inconclusive.
How the F does the importing for industry work? Please let me know if it is one of the below examples, as I can't figure it out.
1. 1 for 1 perfect supply and demand.
Colony A mines 5 basic Ore.
Colony B mines 7 basic Ore.
Colony C (Or A, or B) has a refinery that needs 8 Ore.
4 Ore gets sold as surplus.
2. Highest output cloned.
Colony A mines 10 basic ore.
Colony A refines 9 ore into metals.
Colony B mines 4 ore. (making this a useless industry that does nothing).
Colony B refines 7 ore into metals.
Colony C refines 10 ore into metals.
Colony D refines 11 ore into metals, 1 ore deficit import from other factions.
3. What else is there I am so confused?
I have seen a single Farm industry supply my other 10 colonies, what? Here is my farm planet:
Farm planets says it is making 9, consuming 4, and exporting 9..... WHAT? Is this Highest output cloned?
Here is one of my MANY other planets:
It needs 6, all being imported from one faction. Please help me understand what the F is going on with this system.
