Factory Production
Every factory has its own build capacity, determining how many units it can support at once. Trial accounts may use one build slot per factory. Standard, Premium, and Elite accounts may use each factory's full available capacity.
Upgrading immediately unlocks the additional capacity at every factory you already operate.
Intelligent Build Queues
Large production orders are managed automatically. When you submit an order, construction begins for every unit you can currently afford — the rest wait in the queue and are funded automatically as mining, refining, trading, and deposits add materials. Queued production continues while you are offline and resumes as slots free up.
What Happens When You Downgrade?
Downgrading never deletes your units or removes earned assets. When an account returns to Trial, units using Tier 3+ technology remain in your possession but become restricted. Actions already underway are never interrupted — a moving unit completes its journey, active construction finishes, and ongoing battles resolve normally. Restrictions apply only when you issue the unit's next action.
