HQ Support Plex

Post by Hexdom » Sun, 22. Sep 13, 06:18

Looking to build a support Plex for PHQ for producing ships, in the unknown sector south east of Oort Cloud. Been trying to use a complex calculator, but have had a hard time balancing resource productions. Anyone have a plex they've used to supply their phq they can recommend?

Have you tried the Xadian's Complex Calculator.
It's in my sig and is my calc of choice.
Many built in utilities not found in others.

I've been using Xadian's calculator for X3TC and it is my go-to tool. Exceptionally handy piece of software! I generally don't built more than 30 units into my complexes, but it has not let me down yet.

xadrian + hephastios(sp) corp building service = win. Almost feels like cheating lol.

Yeah, I'm using Xadrian, and Hephaistos (got in X universe late, so have only built one complex in TC without it, and will never go without it haha). I was just having trouble finding the right balance of factories to make a closed loop plex. Kept having not enough excess silicon produced, or not enough excess crystals, etc. Thanks for the link cattafett, I'll have to take a look at that.
