Stations can be on territories to provide different functions, and are either scientific or technical.

It is impossible to order a station demolished, but all stations in a territory would be lost when the territory is lost to enemy hands or the sea.

The science and technical teams work separately, but you cannot further split each team, since there is not enough vehicles. If you add more people to the bays after the vehicle has launched, they will just sit there waiting for the craft to return.

You claim a territory by bulding a Geological Probe on it. You must own a territory before you can build other stations. Some territory resources, such as potential excavation site, will only be know after you have claimed a territory.

Scientific Stations

These stations are build by scientists in the Scientific Bay using Scientific Craft.

Station Requirement Time
Geological Probe - 2.5
Excavation Site - 3
Terraforming Station Icon tech planetologyTerraformation 4
Advanced Terraforming Station Icon tech planetologyAccelerated Terraformation 6

Technical Stations

These stations are build by technicians in the Technical Bay using Technical Truck.

Mines build over minor resources (grey blue icons) produce one unit of that resource. Mines build over major resources (gold icons) produce two units of that resource. Advanced mines has double output.

Station Requirement Time
