    Quick help

    We have plenty of prestige and should have plenty of control and power althoughI don't know how to check.

    When you are in edit mode, there are two bars at the top right of the item selection menu. A green bar and a red bar - these tell you how much energy and control you are producing and how much you are using.
  2. Good luck with the building. If you are interested in seeing just how big a base can get, let me know in-game (@Dr. Feedback) and I will give you a tour of mine.
  3. Aux items attach to a main item. For instance, the Power Crystal (arcane) or Basic Generator (tech) are the main items, and the Crystal Focus (arcane) and Circuit Breaker (tech) are auxillary items that attach to those main items. Auxillary items typically boost whatever it is the main item is putting out.

    The main control items are the Magic Axis (arcane) and Mainframe (tech).
  4. You are going to need to build up to the power and control rooms with their subsequent Tier 1 power and control sources. The starter unit is really set up to power about 1 teleporter along with a med bay.
  5. Do you have your settings set so that you only see what you can craft with the salvage you have on your character?
  6. You can't block an SG member from the base, however you can lock him out of the storage bins.

    Wooden posts can be stacked using lamps/safes and the floor tile.

    teleporter guide

    Read the one in my signature.
  9. 200k is not a lot, however it is enough to get some function from a base. At a minimum, you can get a room and a storage unit to put in it. Combined with the 15-member bonus, you can have 500k which is enough to add in power/control and a teleporter room and porter.
  10. You have to clear them out before you can sell them.
  11. We don't know how badges will work in the Rogue expansion. The best way now is to do the STF.

    Even though it takes a really long time, you can use the Modern Art Frame object (the plain white picture) to simulate white walls by placing them next to each other/slightly overlapping...probably not a good solution for a whole base, but it's pretty good for just a room, like a small medbay or office.

    It's also good for a movie screen.
  13. You have to approach it from the side, and your cursor cannot touch the edge of raised section. It's hard to put into words, really, but basically you want to take a long and flat view in order to pull it off.

    Couple Q's

    You probably have gone over on control or power. The vault is "shut off" if you don't have enough of either.
  15. Miyuki gravel is the pattern for the floor.
  16. I pay rent these days just to get rid of the rent notice. It's 2800 prestige. That takes like, what? 10 minutes to earn? They ought to just get rid of it.
  17. I'd say my favorite is my MA/Shield scrapper, although I am very fond of my MA/Regen as well. I just find martial arts to be the most comic-booky scrapperish set of the bunch. It's a lot of fun to play and the animations rock.
  18. It's a bug - petition it and they will fix it.
  19. If you haven't gotten to "Shield Charge" yet, you will love it. Six-slot that bad boy and have fun!
  20. As stated, /regen or /willpower are good ones. Having said that, my MA/Shield is a lot of fun, but was an end hog early on.
  21. Why would someone hate an AT so much as to avoid one half (or more) of the game?
  22. I must be the only one that doesn't miss base salvage.
  23. I once watched my wife's fire/fire tanker herd 14 death mages. Not a weak tank in the slightest.
  24. I've gotten this accolade on several of my characters since I started playing this in 2004. I have maybe used this power five times.

    If anything, I use it for screenshots.
