Discovery Player Base Guide

[St.Denis]

I have recently noticed that this Guide is out of date due to the recent changes added.

Seeing as this is a very good Guide for those I have decided to try some of the Information so that Daedric, if he is still around and interested, can up date his Thread.

If those who have Bases can add the latest information that I can't add at this moment then that will be great. This will allow the information to be complete and up to date.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Snoopyman.

Further to my last is the JD MkIII

90,000 Reinforced Alloy
5,000 Gravity Field Stabilisers
15,000 Critical Temperature Alloy
21,000 Industrial Hardware
15,000 Robotic Hardware
20,000 Argentium Silver
15,000 Magnetic Superconductors


I have also worked out how much each costs and how many trips required using a 5k transport. This is calculated that you have exactly 5k of cargo space to use. I don't know if this is worth adding in.

Core Upgrade - Cost to make 116M. 5k trips = 84 (per Upgrade)
Docking Module Factory - Cost to make 15.5M. 5k trips = 12
Docking Module - Cost to make 14.25M. 5k trips = 12
Jump Drive Factory - Cost to make 34M. 5k trips = 20
JD MkII - Cost to make 37.25M. 5k trips = 27
JD MkIII - Cost to make 69.2M. 5k trips = 40
Hyperspace Scanner Factory - Cost to make 49.5M. 5k trips = 24
Cloaking Device Factory - Cost to make 30M. 5k trips = 14
Weapon Platform - Cost to make 27.75M. 5k trips = 16
Shield Generator Module - Cost to make 20.25M. 5k trips = 12
Storage Module - Cost to make 23.25M. 5k trips = 19

To make a Core 4 Base with the following Modules:

5 x Storage
2 x Weapon Platforms
1 x Shield Module
1 x Docking Module Factory
1 x Jump Drive Factory
1 x Cloaking Device Factory
1 x Hyperspace Scanner Factory

It will cost 642.5M to build and will take a total of 461 Trips using a 5ker.

I had a look around yesterday and i found out that all the information, in regards to building items and modules, can be found your Disco folder

Code:

.../[Discovery Folder]/Exe/flhook_plugins

In there is a file called "base.cfg". Open it up with note pad and you've got all the requirements to build all the items and modules there. I'll get around to updating this when i get home. But thank you for your help, St.Denis.

Thanks again Snoopyman for that. I have never bothered to look in these files as I wouldn't know where to look. It has saved me having to make all the items to update my records and these ones. Seeing as you can fill in the missing blanks for the rest, don't forget the Storage Upgrade which I seemed to have forgotten to add in my first Posts.

Thanks again.

Just to finish what I started with regards to cost and loads for each item and seeing as Drrobe added that information I will post here and finish it off.

Jump Drive MkIV - Cost to make 74.75M. 5k trips = 47
Hyperspace Survey Mk1 - Cost to make 47M. 5k trips = 35
Hyperspace Survey Mk2 - Cost to make 59.5M. 5k trips = 44
Hyperspace Survey Mk3 - Cost to make 70.75M. 5k trips = 52
Cloaking Device (Small) - Cost to make 15M. 5k trips = 12
Cloaking Device (Medium/MkII) - Cost to make 30M. 5k trips = 23
Cloaking Device (Large/MkII Advanced) - Cost to make 45M. 5k trips = 34

Shield generator and daily consumption need adjustment it still says one day needs 8600 alloy but this is wrong since the last update? And the shield says 99% absorption should be 96 %

[Ponge]

" one day needs 8600 alloy"

It still needs that much in 24 hours.

They said it is now easier to maintain, or am I wrong?

I was supposed to change, but it was not changed yet (there were some issues).
