The Icon Construction Data

Buildings

Small buildings take 2 turns to build. Medium buildings take 3, Large take 4, and Massive take 5. Certain environmental factors can cause buildings to take longer to finish. Buildings can be constructed in parallel, so this is mainly a delay in how fast they start doing things. Each increase in size generally makes the building cost twice as much, use twice as much power, and require 2.5x as many Workers and/or Professionals, but yield 3x the benefit. Larger buildings are always more efficient, so long as you actually need that much benefit and are willing to wait.

Housing

Home, sweet home. Without houses, citizens will not work on the planet surface, and will live in any available space on our fleet, suffering a -1 morale penalty. (Small)Temporary Housing A cluster of tents. Not suitable for a permanent settlement.

Houses 125 people at -1 Morale.

Construction cost: 5 Metal

SPECIAL: Builds in one week. 1 turn is a month, so this is essentially instant.

(Small)Apartments Permanent housing. Nothing special.

Houses 250 people.

Construction cost: 50 Metal

Farming

An army runs on its stomach. I shudder to contemplate what would happen if we ever ran out of food. (Small)Farming Dome

Medical

An apple a day keeps the doctor away. When that fails, we have these. Medical buildings increase the birth rate, reduce the death rate, stave off disease, and tend to combat injuries. They also generate Implant Points, which we can use to cybernetically enhance the population. (Small)Medical Outpost

Slightly boosts population growth.

Standard disease resistance.

1 IP generated per turn.

Construction cost: 50 Metal, 0.5 SC.

Uses 0.5 Power, employs 10 Professionals.

(Medium)Hospital

Boosts population growth.

Increased disease resistance.

3 IP generated per turn.

Construction cost: 100 Metal, 1 SC.

Uses 1 Power, employs 25 Professionals.

(Large)Medical District

Greatly boosts population growth.

Maximum disease resistance.

9 IP generated per turn.

Construction cost: 200 Metal, 2 SC.

Uses 2 Power, employs 60 Professionals.

Sports

SPORTS! Stadium Our people must really love their sports, as this is one of the best morale structures. Currently, the only sports building available.

+2 Morale for the entire settlement.

Construction cost: 300 Metal.

Entertainment

Entertainment structures raise morale, and... do nothing else. They're good at it though. Small Entertainment

Large Entertainment

Construction cost: 400 Metal, 2 SC.

Uses 2 Power, employs 200 Workers.

Shopping

Splinter citizens are a materialistic sort, and so if you want high morale you need to let them buy pointless crap. Shops have a Morale bonus that stacks with Entertainment structures, don't cost SC or use power, and wind up using less workers per person served, in the end. In exchange for this, they require Goods to be made at Factories in order to function. (Small)Store

Construction cost: 200 Metal.

Employs 75 Workers.

Warehouses

Enabling our packrat tendencies since the start of the quest. Warehouses store materials, goods, food, and vehicles. Food takes up less space than the other things. Warehouses have no upkeep at all, so there's no excuse for running out of space. If we do run out of space, production buildings will simply stop generating things that need that space. Warehouses cannot be added to ships like other buildings, as in order to add functionality to Building Freighters, they have to be very economical with space. Warehouses are just enclosed space, so that doesn't work. Small Warehouse

Stores 3000 units of resources.

Construction cost: 75 Metal.

Medium Warehouse

Stores 9000 units of resources.

Construction cost: 150 Metal.

Large Warehouse

Stores 27000 units of resources.

Construction cost: 300 Metal.
