Factory

Factory Sector
The Factory Sector is a Planetary Sector focused on the consumption of resources for the production of components.

Production
The first thing a player will see with the factory menu are two columns for components queued or component sunder construction.



It is possible to queue a ship from the Shipyard and all required components will automatically enter the factory queue; however, producing a reserve of components for future production will be useful. Doing this is first started by clicking the + icon under the 'under construction' column. Clicking that will open a glossary of available components to produce. The triangle next to the + will bring a drop-down list of previously produced components for quick queuing.



The glossary component list allows the player to set the amount of components they wish to produce in different quantities while showing some basic information (CP cost, slot type, and build time). When build is clicked, these components will be queued for production.



When more components are queued than can be produced at one time by the planet's factories the overflow is left in the queued column. When these components are finished they will be transferred into the Warehouse.
