I have a resource that looks something like this .....

RESOURCE ID YIELD 10% DROP SIZE

Clothing (30152) xxxxx 30 2 24598


The size is 24598 .... does this mean that once those are gone I can't get this resource any more .... or do they replenish?

depends on the resource, some don't replish at all (normally things like metals or minerals or stuff that takes millena to form), some replish a fixed amount each day (mostly non-animal resources), and others replish by a percentage of the total size (mostly living animal resources)

issue the resource information order to get all the details for your resource, or look at which ever speical action gave the resource.

also if the resource information order fails it's because it's an internal resource and not a planet-based one (apparently), not sure how you are ment to find out the growth rate of those mind you, i'm currently enquireing into it.

I can tell its not replenishing because I have an update from the day before .... In fact none of the resources have replenished. Even those where I take minimal quantities ... like local animals and such.

don't forget you might not be the only person exploiting them.

but if their not replensihing then as far as i know when it hits zero it's all gone, and shame on you for strip mining a whole planet tongue.gif

Don't resources only replenish once a week? So the figures should change next week?

yes resources either grow by a % or an ammount per week.
gordon
Any particular day they "grow" on?

Obviously it can't be the day the starbase updates, as there could be several bases on the world, each updating on a different day.

no just once per week. If they reduce the resource to 0 then its shared equally between the exploiters.

so each resource my 'grow' on a different day of the week? i had just assumed end of week or maybe automatied over the weekend.

gonna have to check my starbases more closely happy.gif can't have my resources running out (darn pd stealing them all.... tongue.gif)
