Thread: Factory and skill tapes Question

Now it's my time to ask some questions :


1. Does the 100 Item limit of a Factory count in total or 100 Items for the input Hopper and 100 Items for the Output?

2. How long do Items in a Factory last? Do they get deleted after to much time? If yes does one get a mail before that happens?

3. Does the droid assembly bonus from a SEA/Clothing stack with the bonus for a reseach facility?

4. Does Droid assembly only decrease the chance of a critical failure while assembling or does it help in any way while experimenting?

5. Does Droid experimentation increase the rate of amazing successes while experimenting or does it only increase the experimentation points?

Each can hold 100 seperate items (for a total of 200). However you can only place items in the input hopper. The output only accepts things the factory makes as it makes them. You take it out you can't put it back in.

2. How long do Items in a Factory last? Do they get deleted after to much time? If yes does one get a mail before that happens?

Just like a house, or input hopper of a crafting machine, they stay there indeffinitly. However watch the maintenance on the factory... they cost more to keep up.

3. Does the droid assembly bonus from a SEA/Clothing stack with the bonus for a reseach facility?

I believe so, though I could be mistaken on this point.

4. Does Droid assembly only decrease the chance of a critical failure while assembling or does it help in any way while experimenting?

From what I understand (and again I could be mistaken) assembly helps with fewer crit fails, and slightly higher chance of an amazing success. I don't have any Assembly tapes myself so I can't say with any authority on this.

5. Does Droid experimentation increase the rate of amazing successes while experimenting or does it only increase the experimentation points?

From what I understand (and yet again I could be mistaken) experimentation helps with getting an amazing success and not actually adding exp points. I don't have any experimentation tapes myself so I can't say with any authority on this, though I suspect it is similar to Bespin Port in that respect which does not add points but does help with successes.

Thanks for the info on the factory

FYI, Droid Experimentation does add experimentation points, but you need +10 Droid Experimentation in order to get a single experimentation point, and the limit is two extra points.
