Robotics Factory

| Base Cost | |
|---|---|
| Metal: | 400 |
| Crystal: | 120 |
| Deuterium: | 200 |
| Energy: | 0 |
Robotics Factories reduce the time taken to construct buildings. The base time required for construction is divided by (1 + level of Robotics Factory).
Robotics Factories have less of an effect for higher level upgrades. For example, the first level of a robotics factory will cut production time in half, but the ninth level will only cut the time by 1/10 of what it was at the eighth level. If a building takes 1 hour to build before you build your robotics factory, it will take 30 minutes after the factory is built, but if a building takes 1 hour to build with a level 8 robotics factory, it will take 54 minutes to build after the level 9 factory upgrade is built. Therefore, it is rarely worthwhile to upgrade the Robotics Factory beyond Level 10.
The formula for calculating the percentage of original build/upgrade time is (example: Level 1 Robotics factory is 50% original time, and Level 1 + 1 = 2, and since
When your factory is upgraded to level 10, you will be able (assuming that you have researched Computer Technology level 10) to build a Nanite Factory. Many OGame players prefer Nanite Factories because every level halves production time for buildings as well as for fleet and defense. However, Nanite Factories have a large base cost, so you will not be able to afford one until later in the game.
Is Required For:
- Shipyard (Level 2)
- Nanite Factory (Level 10)
