* Listed costs are associated with buying a building without any work effort invested on a gravity 0.5 world (maximum cost). Cost savings from worker effort starts out very significant. The first few days of work reduce the cost more than 5 times the average cost per total days of effort to complete the build. This cost saving reduces exponentially and shallows out towards the end of the build to virtually nothing in the last few days ^{[Unconfirmed]}.

Ship Designs

Once you have a Star Base constructed, you may queue up any of the ship designs you have defined. Only ships upto 300 tons total mass.

You may also build individual equipment items by specifying "no hull" for a ship design.

Initial purchase cost of a ship design seems to be about 5-6 times the market vaule.
