Station Chain

[Conbadicus]

Is there a guide or faq showing Station Chains? the in game tooltips don't tell you what you need to make X Y Z etc. I'm looking for a logical progression of stations to build a self sustaining fleet etc.

no, thats the THINK part of the game, you have to find it out for yourself. lots of paperwork and scanning stations ... or you can just choose to look it up on roguey. still not easy but he has all the information you need.

There is a recent lengthy discussion thread on that topic which no doubt has been seen by the devs by now. Luanda has contributed to it too. Let's hope something will come of all the ideas there.

Actually, you CAN see the required resources needed for a station to run without having to build it first. As I just posted in that linked thread.

As for a guide or FAQ, this is exactly what you want: http://www.starfreeze.com/wiki/Category:Stations

(That site is very good overall, although not sure it's entirely up-to-date with latest patches so some information may be legacy).

Shameless plug for a program I wrote which generates printable output for what a fully-built station needs and produces. Output is downloadable as well, for a slightly old (but still accurate) version of the program.

Nice one @TruePikachu - very useful little program

Cool thanks
