Outposts

Description

An Outpost is a generic Starbase that has been built from a Transport Vessel and can be placed anywhere in the map within a 100k range from a starbase, however they cannot be within a radius of 23k from another starbase. This is apart of the Outpost update.

Outpost's are normally created to get closer to the Mega Base or to the opposition. They are also known to spammed in Economy servers due to the high resource collection

The spamming of outposts in an eco server.

Appearance

An Outpost looks and acts exactly like a Starbase.

Creating an outpost

An outpost can be built by a leader of a Faction in exchange of the current selected starbase's resources. Building an outpost costs 25k silicate, 5k carbon, 4k iridium and 1k uranium. When selected a Transport Vessel will fly to the selected spot (very slowly since no warp drive) and once arrived will start spinning in place for around 20~ seconds before spawning a new starbase.

An outpost cannot be named and will instead will take the name of Outpost-(random letter followed by an interger)
