What is required to build a resort base?

Post by 100thMonkey »

I have resort locations in the "New Resort Locations" tab in the control center, but when I select any of those, there's never a a button to create a resort base.

Nothing in the Galactopedia about what is required to build one (in term of components and/or techs). Nothing in the tour, nor in the manual.

I've checked in the ship designs, with "All Designs" and "All Types" for filter, in the hope of seeing the components, but I don't see any design for resort base. And I didn't find the asnwer in the forum either.

Cas someone tell me what I'm missing?

You have to research the resort base tech and I believe the transport tech with passenger ships....GP

Yes. I found those two techs. Their names are:

- Basic Transport Systems
- Expanded Space Stations

You also need the Recreation Center tech.
Just when I get the hang of a game, I buy two more... :)

I've looked it up, and "Recreation Center" is a component obtained with the tech "Recreation Systems". Thanks.
