![]() ![]() When completed, the Shipyard Complex has a single Slipway with a capacity of 1000 tons. The cost of a Shipyard Complex is 2400 BP and it is built using construction factories. Physically moving the shipyard away from the planet with a Tug will effectively shut down the shipyard, but note that shipyards will disappear if the tug releases them while not in orbit of a colony.Īll ships greater than 500 tons have to be built in Shipyard Complexes. Shipyards can be towed to a different colony. Keep in mind that the expansion of shipyards consumes great amounts of Neutronium. After designing the class, retool a shipyard to build it or select "Build PDC/Orbital Habitat" in the industry tab. This can be used to build arbitrarily large industrial bases that could include Terraforming modules, Sorium Harvesters or Asteroid Mining Modules without the need for a shipyard. ![]() Notes: Every design that includes an Orbital Habitat Module can be built by industry as well as by a shipyard. Properly planning your fleet construction can save you time and costs, as sometimes similar classes can be build in the same yard without first retooling - see the Retooling section below for more details. Keep in mind that a shipyard usually can only produce one class of ships at a time, and that retooling for a new class takes considerable time and money, so building more shipyards is a better way of quickly expanding a fleet with many different classes than adding slipways to existing yards. You begin with only a small building capacity shipyard at your homeworld, so you should invest in building more shipyards and expanding their capacity. Shipyards are critical because they represent the only method for constructing ships, whether for combat or for various other purposes, such as colonization, transport, surveying, trading, and so forth. Naval shipyards can build either military or commercial ships. Commercial shipyards get a 10x size bonus for the same cost, but may only build Commercial ships. ![]() They also have a number of slipways which let them build multiple ships at the same time. Shipyards are rated by their maximum construction tonnage(capacity) and come in two variants: Naval and Commercial. Shipyards are orbital installations that specialise in the manufacture, refit, repair and scrap of ships and defensive structures. ![]()
