== Summary ==
The '''Planetary Base''' is a [[Dark Fog]] structure constructed by a [[Relay Station]], after it installs a [[Core Driller]] on a planet's surface. It consists of a variety of production and defense facilities and grows over time, until it reaches its maximum size. The Planetary Base's energy is supplied by the Relay Station above it, and its matter is supplied by its Core Driller.


== Mechanics ==
When a Planetary Base is first constructed, it will do nothing until it has stored about 9500 matter, at which point it begins constructing its first buildings. A single Planetary Base can store up to 15000 matter, and any excess is sent to its Relay Station.


== Summary ==
A Planetary Base will produce 180 matter per second, unless it has entered overdrive mode. This is triggered if [[Icarus]] or a [[Signal Tower]] is close to the Planetary Base and increases matter and unit production speed tenfold.

It receives its matter from the Core Driller and its energy from the Relay Station connected to it.
 
=== Trivia ===


* A planetary base will store up around 9500 matter, then it begins construction of the first buildings.
If the Planetary Base's Relay is destroyed, the Base will quickly run out of power and go dormant.  
* The Planetary Base will store a maximum of 15.000 matter, anything above that also gets sent to the Relay.
* A Planetary Base will produce 180 matter / second, unless it has entered overdrive mode.
* Overdrive Mode is triggered by close proximity of [[Icarus]] or a [[Signal Tower]]. It increases matter and unit production speed tenfold.
* If the Relay is destroyed the Base will quickly run out of power reserves since it has no power generation of its own, rendering it dormant.

Fully grown Planetary Base

Summary

The Planetary Base is a Dark Fog structure constructed by a Relay Station, after it installs a Core Driller on a planet's surface. It consists of a variety of production and defense facilities and grows over time, until it reaches its maximum size. The Planetary Base's energy is supplied by the Relay Station above it, and its matter is supplied by its Core Driller.

Mechanics

When a Planetary Base is first constructed, it will do nothing until it has stored about 9500 matter, at which point it begins constructing its first buildings. A single Planetary Base can store up to 15000 matter, and any excess is sent to its Relay Station.

A Planetary Base will produce 180 matter per second, unless it has entered overdrive mode. This is triggered if Icarus or a Signal Tower is close to the Planetary Base and increases matter and unit production speed tenfold.

If the Planetary Base's Relay is destroyed, the Base will quickly run out of power and go dormant.

Composition

  • The Planetary Base consists of three distinct rings:
    • Central Ring: Buildings here are constructed at a speed of 1% every 6 seconds, so each takes 10 minutes to build. Each building is located on the hard foundation section. The central ring can support:
      • 3 Raider Camps
      • 3 Plasma Sentries
    • Second Ring: Buildings here are constructed at a speed of 0.1% every 6 seconds, so each takes 1 hour and 40 minutes to build. However, multiple buildings may be under construction at once. Each building is located on the ground around the hard foundation. The second ring can support:
      • 6 Ranger Camps
      • 3 Raider Camps
      • 3 Unknown Structures
    • Third Ring: Buildings here are constructed at a speed of 0.3% every six seconds, so each takes about 33 minutes to build. However, fewer buildings are under construction at a time. Each buildings is located on the ground around the hard foundation. The third ring can support:
      • 9 High Energy Laser Towers
      • 6 Guardian Camps
      • 3 Ranger Camps
      • 3 Plasma Sentries

Planetary Base (core)

Dark Fog's brain above the planet, it follows two simple rules: First, never build unnecessary structures; Second, clear any threats near the base. A Planetary Base will regularly assess its nearby environment. If a threat is identified, it will give an order to its Camps to accelerate production. A Planetary Base will dig wells deep into the planet to exploit core matter. Such matter will then be used to build structures and units. This technology grants a high degree of freedom in evolution to its units, and this may have induced the Dark Fog's variation. Therefore, this technology has been prohibited by the COSMO Technology Ethics Committee. You can still see the core even after a Planetary Base is destroyed. Frankly, only a few engineers were lucky enough to witness this.
