How do you come up with that?
Laser GP = 700 common
Laser Lynx = 750 common
750-700=50 common
Unarmed Lynx = 50 common
Scout = 250 common
Scout > Lynx
????

can't remember, I found it in some old notes.
Consider that the laser GP's cost isn't only the weapon's cost.

Lynx dont come with out turrets and the GP turrets seem to be different or bigger plus the you have to build there platform.  The Lynx itself woundnt be 50.  There is just a 50 cost difference.

I know that Lynx don't come without turrets, I'm just saying, if you built one.  But you have a good point with that GP having its own cost thing.

The lynx costs 50 more because it needs more moving parts, and therefore more computer and motor components

Any way this was about Heavy Ore.

The way to think about the ore in Outpost2 is that Common ore is your light metals and non gas elements that you can get from the ground.

And Rare ore would be your heavy metals and non gas elements and rare earth elements (Ones that werent created in a particle accelerator).

The Lynx chassis costs 300 common ore, no turrets.

In Outpost2 is that Common ore is your light metals and non gas elements that you can get from the ground.

And Rare ore would be your heavy metals and non gas elements and rare earth elements.
Then why not some sort of gas? Maby Xenon? Im shure we could come up with a use for Xenon. Maby a medical use? Or prehaps in some way of constructing or in factories?

Of couse we have to reaserch it. It could be called Xenon extraction. With a specal unit like a GeoCon that deploys over a Xenon thing (insert better name here) and would have the Gas be shiped in a specaly modifed Cargo Tanker thing (insert better name here) and have its own seperate structure like the smelters the refines the gas into a pure state.

No gas there is no need for gas extraction for a few reasons

1. this isnt star craft
2. where the hell does xenon even come from
3. resources in a game are used through out the entirity of the colony power works scis and food.  Ore is used to make new buildings  which are esential.  A gas mine for just medical is a waste of time power and workers.
4. the GEO Con is used on Geo Thermal vents (fuma roles) its not a collector of any kind.

Heavy ore was originaly thought up for production of new weapons say like the Falinginding assualt laser lol.

Xenon i think you might be thinging about RADON.  And i believe that only certain Natually occuring Isotopes are dangerous other wise the gas is to heavy for some one to breath

poisening is not an option. The last humans don't want to kill each other.

Play the Outpost2 campaign and read the novella. Then you'll know.

Yes but people are in the buildings and they destroy buildings.

I had a new idea for the ore. We could call it Obison Ore. Since all of the nown ore is taken by common and rare why not have them discover a new ore type?

Why not just call the ore Bithium ore. In all concepts Bithium is an ore composed of elements that are not found naturally on earth. Like promethium.
