Energy

NOTE: The information on this page is valid only for beta version yet and may change before release

Every player has an amount of energy. Displayed as a yellow bar and a number.

Energy is consumed when doing some actions and refilled over time.

Use of energy

Some actions cost energy:

• Build Nest - 2
• Rebuild Nest - 1

Note that colonizing an existing nest costs no energy.

If you are out of energy you may not perform these actions.

Gain energy

Every 12 minutes energy is refilled by 1 up to your max level.

Max amount of energy

You start with 10 and for every level you increase your maximum energy increase by 1, so: Max = 10 + your level

Ideas

• Build nest cost a lot. Colonize gives most of it back. So the sum is just one? (to prevent costly geo-lookup). To allow people to correctly colonize without having the problem of getting end of energy to fast.
• You may store energy from your energy to an "energy bar" item. This has maybe half or even less of the stored energy. (This makes you willing to enter the game even you can not actually do something where you are).
• Let nests build energy bars (when big).

Future development

An item refilling your energy might be introduced at some point. How to get it is also not decided.

Energy might be used for more things in the future.
