Research information

Space Port is a Building where you can sell and buy Resources. The ship arrives approximately every three days.
The ship has a limited time on the ground in which to Buy/Sell Resources.

Note there are 2 modes: Buy/Sell or Supply.
For Supply missions reputation levels do not advance and there are no additional Space Ports available.

Storage

The default storage can hold 16 Resources to sell and 8 Resources that have been purchased.
To Buy more than 8 Resources, they must be cleared (sourced) from the Spaceport to free up storage room.
The default limit on Sales/Purchases is 16.
However, a Space Port can Buy up to 18 Resources if the entrance is on a roadpost and the Resources are sourced so that the roadpost is cleared (by other Stackbots or Carrybots ).
Note that putting priority on the sourcing building(s) actually negates this and the Space Port will only Buy 16.

Timing

The Space Port ship has 4 stages:

Display Days Ticks
INITIAL TRIP
Ship arriving in 3.0 5400
Ship landing 0.23 420
Ship departing in 1.0 1800
Ship departing 0.23 420
REPEAT TRIP
Ship arriving in 2.77 * 4980 *
Ship landing 0.23 420
Ship departing in 1.0 1800
Ship departing 0.23 420
  • The arrival time for repeat trips is shortened by 420 gameticks to stop the exploit of deleting a ship once transactions are completed and placing a new Space Port, bypassing the 420 departure gameticks

Note that the ship, if it is only selling, will depart at the earlier of:
16 resources Sold.
1800 game ticks (1 day)

  • Note that this can be delayed if the Ship is also buying resources, or if resources to be sold have not reached the Ship's outgoing storage (i.e. some are en route).

Building Limits and Reputation

The number of Spaceports is limited by reputation level.
One reputation point is earned for each $4 earned (sales) or spent (purchases).
Additional Spaceport buildings are unlocked by reputation level.
