Pardus/Buildings

Buildings are the economic infrastructure of Pardus. The majority of them are owned by players, although there are exceptions to the rule. They take commodities that are upkeep and every building tick (6 hours) turn it into something else. The efficiency of the buildings increase by each production level they are upgraded, although the change is much less noticeable after level 5, where the main incentive is the extra production. Buildings require 500 AP to build as well as an amount of materials. A magnetic scoop may be used to carry extra resources if your cargo space is too small. The number of buildings you can have is controlled by the amount of experience you have. The requirements for the next one increase ten-fold after getting the prior one. Also, some buildings such as military outposts and droid assembly complexes have experience requirements.

Experience required for number of buildings
 * 1-100
 * 2-1000
 * 3-10000
 * 4-100000
 * 5-1000000
 * 6-10000000

Space Farm
The space farm is most commonly used as a food source for starbases. They however do not produce much water so their biowaste often goes to a recyclotron. It is also used as a food source around areas that are far from the reach of a major food source so it's not needed for traders to bring in food from far away for a small cluster of buildings.

Recyclotron
Building cost:

30, 40

Because of space farms small resource of water, and production of biowaste, recyclotrons are made to supplement the water supply and use the biowaste. Expect to see some of these around any starbase with space farms around.

Energy well
Building cost:

20, 15

An energy well produces energy namely, but is rarely used as a major source of energy despite it's high level of effifency. The energy produced is incredibly low in comparison of a nebula plant. It needs to be located on energy, making running food, water, and energy to and from it to a planet hard and inconvienient. It does however provide a shield battery for pilots to recharge their shields at a price and for no wait, but the battery has a limited amount of charge which can be increased by upgrading the production.
