You need a Food and Chemical Factory.

What type of factory do we need to make meds ?

You don't get med crafting xp for stuff you make in a factory do you?

Yes you do get med craftingXP for items crafted in a factory. But at a low rate.

Also, at the end of beta it wasn't working for me unless I was near my factory while it crafted. No idea if that was intentional or a bug. However, if I logged off near my factory, I got the XP from the factory when I returned later (so I started factory runs before I went to bed).

Guess they must have fixed that, my factory is near Theed on Naboo and i was hunting on Rori before the servers came down and i was watching my crafting exp go up the whole time as the factory was crunching StimD's.

As of the end of Beta, the rule was that you get one tenth (1/10) the Medical Crafting XP, if you are within 2km of your factory. Wayfarer, were you farther away than that whilst hunting? I'm curious now. Also, someone told me that you needed to remain logged in, yet someone else has said that they didn't. Someone let me know, or I'll test it once I get my factory (maybe today).

I am running a test as we speak so I can tell if you get exp while offline. I started my first D stim run this morning and logged off (stopping and restarting production beforehandto make sure the darn thing worked). My house is right next to the factory and I made a note of my crafting exp when I logged off. If it's more when I log in then I got exp while offline.

If it's the same, I will just start going afk when I go to work or bed rahter than logging. I plan on using factory mostly at nights/worktime anyway.

If anyone could post some kind of upkeep info it would be greatly apreciated, I'm hoping to get a factory up and running on the 8th and would like to know what kind of cost I'm in for, being a poor Doctor and all. Those words still don't look right together. Anyway thanks,

Might anyone be able to tell me the credit and power upkeep costs for Food and Chem factories? Just want to be sure that I can afford to run one for my Stim Ds and other meds as I get them

Thanks in advance!

Well, I A) Have one to sell (25k credits, Meestar on Flurry if you're interested) and B) Have other factories of my own set up, here are the stats on the one I have currently upkeep-wise:

2675 credits will last 2 days, 5 hours, and 30 minutes. So a bit over 1000 credits/day

Power reserves are 1630, and it'll last 0:32, consumption is 50

By comparison, a medium harvester I have has:

2670 credits, 1 day, 20 hours, 30 minutes

Consumption is also 50, but he's out of power right now... I should fix that.

Anyone wanna tell me what units the time on power is in? I remember in beta I just concluded that it was bugged to hell, but maybe I just don't know the units...

Power Units are per hour. 25.0 = 25 units per hour = 600 units per day. 50.0 = 1200 units of power per day.

Blah, no exp while offline and I logged out right next to the factory yesterday morning. But last night I went AFK next to the darn thing and got exp, till the servers hiccupped and took me offline. I didn't get much exp but I also don't know when I went offline.

But, 100 D packs and going up. And I also setup flora harvesters on Lok to make advanced bio controllers. Lok is a VERY dangerous place. But the music is great......

Is a "Food Factory" different than a Chem factory? It sure sounds like "Food Factory" is for food only! I want to make some Stem Pack C's and the sub components for them.. I wanted to know what kind of factory I needed.. anyone? I can't find a definateanswer to this question. Is a "Food Factory" the same thing as a Chem Factory, even though it's doesn't have "Chemical" anywhere in the name?
