Hello fellow architects. I have a small question. Well first let me tell you my situation. I have 90%+ efficiency components(DSC, MSS, and CU). Then I use 1000conductivity copper that spawned here on bria. I get the station up to 99% but only get a 32.xx func. Anyone able to tell me what I'm doing wrong or what can I do to to get them up.

There is a thread here (probably buried 3-4 pages back, driven by the "how do u master arch?" and "arch suxxor" posts) with "crafter's assistant" in the title/body. There is an excel spreadsheet that calculates how you'll do with your materials.

Basically, to get into the 40s you need very very high CD copper and ALL of the optional components as close to 99% as possible.

did you make the subcomponents yourself? it may be that they are not actually 90%. for me to break 40+, i had to use 95% control units and 99% droid storage compartments. i forget the rating on my micro sensors. you also need to use all 10 exp pts and get all great successes or better during experimentation.

I have made a few +41.34 stations useing 96% control units and inside the microsencer suites 96% control unit 96% electronics and 95% energy distrubiters and they come out as 86% micro sencer suits.

i use 983 coductivity copper with 99% droid storage units and the 86% micro sencer suits

The internal components of the micro sensors actually matter. It seems strange with all the db strain the system has that it would rememberthe quality of subcomponents, but it does. Also you need that optional energy distributer.With 1000Con copper, you can hit 45, however if all 15 subcomponents average 90%, you'll lose 10% off the top, bringing it to 40.50. I've been able to hit 40.5 with 931 con copper, so the electronics means everything in station contruction. This is really a master artisan product and probably the hardest to build.

It's not that it remembers the quality of the sub components... but it's done in an additive way...

Microsensor = +/-5 +(control unit) +(electronics GP) +(energy distrib)

It simply keeps a total, and doesn't remember the subcomponent numbers.

So, in short, your microsensor is worth a good 20 Functionality, as each plain component is worth +/-5.

And Yes, I make 43.45 stations and my microsensors are at 89%, but it's a very high 89%...

Stupid microsensor is costing me a full point of functionality.

Rest assured, all my other components are at 99%

45.0 is the max for stations.


And if you want that spreadsheet that was mentioned... here is where to find it.

You gotta have microsoft excel to use it tho.

I baught a 43. something station so i know they exsist just don't know how to make them.
