#SINS OF A SOLAR EMPIRE REFINERY MODS#

The Black Market fluctuates by itself and is affected by how much you sell and buy.

#SINS OF A SOLAR EMPIRE REFINERY MODS#

Im not using any mods and dont plan on using any mods. Havent messed around with the politics yet. The trade ports are useless to me right now (no activity going on or trade). Im not allies with anyone in politics in a saved game Im using to see how the game works. So the market in game is going off of how many crystal and metal asteroids we have? I researched Black Market but like I said I just started playing again the other day. Some mods have buffed it to make it competitive, but with vanilla you likely wouldn't be missing much by never building them. Sadly, there are very few cases where refineries are better than building trade ports and using the credits to buy metal and crystal on the black market.

However, each individual resource asteroid may have only 3 refineries use it for generating metal/crystal (captureable extractors in uncolonizeable gravity wells support 4, but its rare to find a situation where this actually matters). Refineries generate metal and crystal based on the number of metal and crystal asteroids at the planet its at plus ones withone one phase jump away. Typically its a bad idea to build more than three refineries in a set of adjacent planets.

This results in a severe Credit expense when relying on the market to correct an imbalanced economy.ДЄctually even if no one uses the Black Market at all, there will occasionally be market crashes and rises. Sell too much and the price falls sharply and visa-versa, large purchases result in extremely high prices. A market crash is likely a result of an AI player selling off excess resources. The Black Market operates on a simulation of demand and supply. Refineries boost Metal and Crystal outputs. Originally posted by dennis.danilov:Trade Posts generate Credits.
