Can no longer Purchase Point Singularity Projector

Hey there, I found out that I can no longer purchase the Point Singularity Projector, because the only Factory that makes them has been destroyed by Pirates.
Will a New one respawn after a while or is that it? no more available cause I have an Osaka that needs them and you can't buy Factories from Terrans?

You can by PSP forges from the Mars & Saturn Shipyards. (Unless you mean you don't have the rep to buy them.)
But yes, I think the base will eventually re-spawn.

No Terran/ATF Shipyard will sell me them, maybe I should of mentioned that I'm playing Terran Conflict.
My standing amongst the ATF is Earth Access and Hero of Sol with the Terrans.

Waited a week and the Factory wont respawn.

The Aldrin 2 plot unlocks the shipyard that sells Terran factories in X3TC.

If it was going to re-spawn I would have thought it would have by now (although I don't think there's a time limit on how long it takes). Have you checked the other Unknown Sectors to see if it's popped up there?

I think only equipment docks, trading stations, shipyards and outposts (and Terran equivalents) respawn. Mere factories and forges have to be replaced by GoD by TL going pretty much anywhere in Terran space and only if the local supply and demand warrants it. Unless you are supporting the overall Terran economy somehow that is quite possibly seen as unlikely.

Are you sure the original was destroyed by Pirates and not removed by GoD because of lack of trade at it?

Well, may of been lack of trade, but I've programmed the Commodity Logistics to buy manual up to 2 PSP and unload Up to 2 at my Equipment Dock at Xenon Sector 371(?) (The one between Black Hole Sun and Thynn's Abyss) and the Baldric's never deliver them anymore.
Plus I Programmed Freighters to solely keep providing the PSP which was in Saturn 2, noticed the Advanced Satalite Network I set up in that area was destroyed by Pirates.

I haven't finished the Aldrin 2 Missions.. I'm on the Tractor Beam mission after discovering the Terran Unknown Sectors, where one is infested in Kha'ak Units.
They finally appeared after delivering the 500,000 Loads of Ore at the Xenon Hub was finally Finished and the Nvidium was delivered.
Just need 60,000 units more Crystals!

If pirates keep destroying your satellite network I would find the pirate base, (probably in one of the unknown sectors south of Oort Cloud) and knock it out. That hopefully should reduce the number of pirates in the area and thus your network should hopefully last a little longer.

You're ridiculously close to unlocking the TUS1 shipyard, if you want to go that route.

At least for my universe, some stations still respawn.
From the original three Water Purification Plants in Jupter, tzwo respawned.
The new ones have been taking care off, after some moneymaking (delivering resources).
I will observe this matter really close.

Reasons for the respawns are still unknown to me.
Just as like commonwealthstation they usually get delivered by TLs.

I plastered the sectors with adv. sats and have some m7m with marines ready.
They are on standby in Asteroid Belt, Jupiter & Jupiter 2 + Saturn for a quick Ice Miner interception (who deliver new stations, at least in my very first game they did so).

Just 4 hours away from a tractor beam being built.

@ Eisenkalle: yes, when I used the term 'respawn' for docks etc and not for forges etc, I meant they 'just appear' while you are elsewhere, ie without being delivered by a TL.

Heya Alan,

yeah I understood.

These station only respawn, while the other stations usually are delivered by TL.
I am quite irritated about my current game.
The not regular stations are NOT delivered by TL.
For example Water Purification, Weapon stations and the like, currently respawn after 12-24h.

They respawn... ;_;
So nothing to board for me... anyway this is under observation from my part.

What a bugger, went through all the trouble of building a Tractor Beam Factory, waited hours for it to build and then equiped it to my Orca, only for my Orca ta accidently crash into the Mining craft, blow it to smitherines and the guy to say, "You tried your best!" Mission no longer needed to be completed.

ha ha, i'd of annhilated it had I of knowm.

Managed to unlock the Terren Shipyard so Whoop whoop!
