X3AP: HQ building and selling ships

[MCOD]

Hi

I was wondering, can I build ships on my HQ and after that sell them to any shipyard for profit reasons?

You can, but the profit factor would need to be determined by totaling costs from materials and credits. I've seen a spreadsheet or chart that lists the costs to build a ship, but I can't remember which or where.

Even if there is a monetary profit, the time taken to build the ships is likely to make it not worthwhile - except, perhaps, mass-producing M5s. Even so, the time spent doing this would (imo) be better spent on building ships that you want for your fleet.

The list of production cost data is at http://www.x3wiki.com/index.php/Headquarters

Note that the amounts you get for selling are likely to be less than the total build costs.[/url]

Thank you both.
