Hi, I'm new to production and mass production at Starbases. I was hoping someone could clarify that this is possible: Desired result: 4 Factories mass producing Basic Modules and 4 Factories mass producing Industrial Modules and 4 Factories mass producing Military Modules and 4 Factories mass producing Structual Modules and 4 Factories mass producing Transport Modules and ie 20 Factories Mass Producing 5 different items. All the above while the other factories use standard production to produce items from the normal production queue. I've tried issuing orders to this effect and they have all failed for the second week running... so I'm now asking whether this is possible. Cheers! GTDoug. Ps - I know there is a four week tooling period to account for. | |

As far as I'm aware, the minimum number of factories which can be set in an individual mass production line (= per item produced) is ten, with a production 0f 450 MUs/week. I've heard that you can end up with less than this due to damage to the starbase or other factors though. Your twenty factories could mass produce two items, with ten factories in each 'line'. Efficiency goes up if you add in more factories, peaking at about 40. Twenty factories in a single mass production line would produce 950 MU's of one item per week. TonyH | |

Hope this helps: 01 - 10 : 45 per factory 11 - 20 : 50 per factory 21 - 40 : 55 per factory 41+ : 50 per factory Factories - MU Produced 10 - 450 20 - 950 30 - 1500 40 - 2050 49 - 2500 59 - 3000 69 - 3500 79 - 4000 89 - 4500 99 - 5000 109 - 5500 119 - 6000 129 - 6500 139 - 7000 149 - 7500 159 - 8000 169 - 8500 179 - 9000 189 - 9500 199 - 10000 209 - 10500 219 - 11000 229 - 11500 239 - 12000 | |

Don't know if this possible - I seem to remember something like this being mentioned once - but could you set the initial mass production line at 10 factories, and then afterwards change the number to 4? | |

You can (could?) get MP to set for four factories if you only had four factories free, and issued an order to tool 10 or more factories. |
