Architect Archive

Hey all I am still climbing the ranks of architect. I just hit Installations IV a couple of days ago. I have a few questions!

1) I have 2 solar generators. Would it be wise to replace those 2 generators with a Fusion Generator? Would I get the same amount of power?

2) Do heavy harvesters, fusion generator take up 1 or 2 lots?

3) How many lots does a medium house take up. (Im thinking of upgrading.)

4) Is having a Heavy Mineral Harvester the equivelant of having 2 mediums?

Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

The answers are as follows

Solar is 7 units/min

Fusion is 13 units/min

Medium mineral 4 units/min

Heavey mineral 7 units/min

Not sure on mediums houses, kinda buggy and seems to be related to the style you choose. 2-4 lots. Shoud be 4 most are not currently.

I can make you all of the about.

Fusion 125k

Heavy mineral 140k

Medium house 60k

1) if you have a good source of radioactive, then yes

2) 1

3) 2

4) yes, with only 3 times the maint and power consumption of the small, of course the high cost of making it means it wont pay for itself for weeks.. unless you need the lots..

I wondered if someone could help answer some of my questions...

1) I have recently bought a cheap "mouse Droid" (my first droid). I taught it some basic commands but when I used the "store" Command the droid disappeared (forever), I expected it to go into my Inventory... Is this a bug? or is it supposed to do this?

2) Every now and then, items in my inventory changesits 'name colour' toyellow, what does this mean?

3) Do Harvestors decay when turned off? So doyou have to pay maintenance when they are turned off?

Thx

Hehe, no it didnt go away forever. Push ctrl D(datapad). Its there and you will be able to take it out again just push call. I am not sure bout your 2nd question. I do know if the item is yellow that is supposed to mean it has sockets. I dont know if u mean that it changes back and forth or you get some items that are yellow. It wont hurt it anywaz. For your 3rd question yes they decay and you have to pay matience. Hope i helped

Cheers thanx... that helped a lot

That leads on to a new question:

What are sockets for?

thx

This gets complicated. Sockets are on clothes and backpacks. It is somethign that a tailor can add on to one of those items so all do not have them. If you examine a yellow item it will tell you how many sockets it has. Now sockets are for skill enhancers. There are all kinds of em but i am preeeeettty sure its only the 'tape' kind. Looks like tape. Now i am not absolutely sure but i think that skill enhancers don't work. I know the one i put in my clothes doesnt work.

Actually, while im here:

Ive never had a pet and Ive noticed people selling 'CH pets' and 'Non-CH pets'... Whats the difference between 'Creature Handler Pets' and 'Non Creature Handler Pets'?

thx

Youneed to be a Creature Handler to have a CH pet. Non CH pets are available to everyone.

You can hold 2 non CH pets at one time in your datapad, but i think you can only call one of them at a time.

Sorry for the wait. I was away. This is a good question to ask me since i have a creature handler charcter. I dont want to go in depth to much but just a little. See creature handler can tame babies you know that. Well they have this complicated system of creature levels. Now creature handlers with the right skills can use stuff regular people(non creature handlers) cant. A regular person has a creature lvl of 15...hehe ok thats tooo in depth

In other words non ch pets are pets that people like you that are not a creature handler can use. Ch pets are for creature handlers only...Most ch pets are alot more powerful then non ch pets...
