The Power Plant is a building used to generate electricity to give speed boosts to other buildings.

Power Grid

The power grid is where you place structures in order to generate and store energy.

You can place structures by selecting one from the list on the left of the screen, and then clicking an empty tile.

To delete a structure, right-click the filled tile while not having any structure selected from the list. Doing so will refund you 25% of the resource you spent buying the component. This can be increased to 50% if you have Component Recycling Skill.

Structures can connect with each other without the use of pipes, but pipes can be used to use resources more efficiently at times.

Network

This is where you spend your energy to speed up other buildings:

• Construction Firm: Reduces construction time for buildings.
• Factory: Speeds up shard refining, store reload, and machine speed.
• Mine: Speeds up the drill.
• Headquarters: Speeds up download of software.
• Shipyard: Speeds up shipments.
• Workshop: To boost Workshop you need an Era artifact, speeds up Era related purposes.

The more energy you use, the longer and stronger the boost is.

You can boost multiple buildings at the same time, but selecting less makes the individual boosts better.

Technology

These are your structures for use in the power grid.

You can unlock more by upgrading the Power Plant in the Construction Firm.

You can upgrade structures if they are upgradeable. All costs are rounded to the nearest resource.

• Quantum Grid - Allows components on the power grid to connect to components on the opposite edge of the grid.
• Super Boost - Using more power for boosts has a higher impact on duration/effectivity. (Log10 -> Log7)
• Max. Power - Increases the effectiveness of all active boosts by 25% (multiplicative) if the current amount of power exceeds the maximum amount.
• Component Recycling - Increases the amount of resources returned from selling components to 50% instead of 25%.
• Shutdown - Allows you to cancel boosts anytime. Does not refund any power!

• Hibernation Mode - Boosts stop losing their duration while the game is closed but still affect all buildings during that time as many they would normally do.
