Shipyard

Base Cost
Metal:	400
Crystal:	200
Deuterium:	100
Energy:	0

The Shipyard is responsible for constructing all ships and defensive structures. The level of the Shipyard and the Nanite Factory have an effect on the build times of ships and defense.

$T(h) = \frac{\mbox{metal cost} + \mbox{crystal cost}}{2500\times (1 + \mbox{Shipyard level})\times 2^{\mbox{Nanite Factory level}}}$

T(h) is the final building time in hours. More advanced construction formulas can be found on the Nanite Factory page.

It is not yet possible to cancel production or reschedule/change the production queue.

Note: In some universes the formula appears to be

$T(min)={\frac {{\mbox{metal cost}}+{\mbox{crystal cost}}}{250\times (1+{\mbox{Shipyard level}})\times 2^{\mbox{Nanite Factory level}}}}$
