Resources
In OGX, resources are the foundation of all activity. They are required to build, research, produce, colonize, send fleets, and much more.
There are four main resources in the game:
Metal
Metal is the most common resource. It is used for:
- All buildings
- Ships
- Defenses
- Some technologies
It is mainly produced by the Metal Mine.
Crystal
Crystal is a rarer resource, essential for:
- Scientific research
- Advanced ships
- Deuterium production
It is extracted by the Crystal Mine.
Deuterium
Deuterium is a strategic and energy resource. It is required for:
- Interstellar travel (fuel)
- Expeditions
- Some research
- Certain advanced buildings
It is generated by the Deuterium Synthesizer and depends on the planet temperature (the colder the planet, the better the yield).
Dark Matter
Dark Matter is a special resource. It is obtained through:
- Expeditions
- Daily Votes
- Special events
- (No direct purchase on OGX)
It can be used to:
- Speed up certain actions
- Unlock bonus options
Production summary
Each planet produces its own resources locally, depending on:
- The level of its mines
- The current energy level
- The Plasma Technology
- The optional Commander (VIP) bonus
You can view production from the Resources page of each planet.
Storage capacity
Each resource is limited by:
- The level of the Metal Storage
- The level of the Crystal Storage
- The level of the Deuterium Tank
When a storage is full, production for that resource stops.
Tips
- Remember to upgrade your storages regularly so you do not block production.
- Expeditions can randomly bring back additional resources.
- A cold planet gives better deuterium production.
- The VIP bonus increases the production of the three main resources by +10%.
