Its so that you can reduce the production in cetain mines if your low on energy, this is usually done when you havent got enough power to run at full capacity and are short on metal for example so you lower the production in the other mines.

likewise, anyone throw some light on this please.

okay so in the main box is your mine levels and what they currently are,ie how much they will produce in an hour.

The percentage box shows the percentage of the hourly rate you are producing.If you drop yout mines down to 50% they will only produce half of what the hourly rate that they are capable of.

when you do a mine upgrade you sometimes have to hit the calculate button before your upgraded hourly rate of income is enabled,

The figures in red are the amount of energy your mines nee to run at 100%.

If any of the green figures turn red then you need to upgrade your energy because you are using more energy than you are capable of supplying,and as a result your hourly income will be reduced untill you can get the figures into the green again.

Thankyou. Makes a little more sense.

reading this sounds intriguiging, must contimue my X2 game which I have many stations and ships! already!

I guess you need a colony shipt to colonise other planets (Doh?), any tips on colonising? Also anyone in TNGA? (I think Davey_Pitch recommended this) only they are either not responding or have ignored my request. Oh, Uni3 by the way.

Cheers.

Yo!...if you message WRECK in game then he should respond with a YAY or NAY quite quickly.

Planet slots 4-6 give a higher percentage of big planets, though 7-9 give big ones too. Lower number planet slots make solar sats more effective, high ones give better deut production. I generally keep planets if they are over 190-200 fields.

Don't send any resources in the colony ship. You'll lose it.

Where you place your planets in the universe will affect how your game progresses. High galaxies are normally quieter, lower ones are more active with more targets. Putting all your planets near each other makes it easier to move resources, spreading them out will give you a larger range of targets to choose from.

Enjoy

I did that, I picked up Wreck (and Teifiterror) and used them as references from earlier in the thread. Here's hoping.

yimpster, I did that ages ago, no response yet. Are you in contact with the guy? Just wondering wether to message again or try elsewhere, maybe a nil response is the same as a no?

He may well have missed the message, all messages elicit a response.

Try again, remember to quote that you are coming from OCUK forums and point back to this thread

Don't let him join TNG I need targets

Also just so you know my account sharing ban related to the fact that due to work I log in, in two different countries each week. So once I explained that it was indeed me in two different countries I got unbanned.

Though I lost a days resource and then got stung by the VM bug where you lose resource on planets

Is anyone in uni21?

Ive currently got 3252 points (Rank 2336 of 8757)

Holy Smoking thread revival Batman

Anyone still playing this and in what universes etc ?

Teifiterror · 7 Dec 2006 at 10:28

Quite a few still at it in Uni 3, playing for T.N.G and T.N.G.A

Funky Mosquito · 7 Dec 2006 at 17:54

Not all in TNG

stu4691 · 7 Dec 2006 at 18:52

I'm still playing. In Uni 8, ranked 9 at the moment. Got slightly more interesting recently as the alliances ranked 1, 7 (mine) and 8 went to war with the 2 and 3rd rank alliances.

All adds to the fun
