Help me design a "plane-jane" personal storage base

I have a second account now, which will allow the money to come in much faster...alogn with more salvage, which will allow more IOs to be built, etc.

Because of that, I want to create a personal base...nothing fancy...just a place to store salvage, crafted IOs, and a table on which to craft them. I'm not concerned about alot of decorations or anything, and I can live without teleporters.

Can someone provide me with info regarding how much prestige I'm going to need to do this?

Also...maybe a basic "shopping list" for doing so?

All you need is an entry room and storage rooms then.
Storage bins and crafting stations are non-powered, so you don't need any control/power items or the rooms to house them.
I suggest holding out to getting the square - 4 block room to start instead of the two block room. It holds more bins for the prestige price.

---

You won't need much prestige if you just want it for storage and crafting.

Summary of items:

2x2 Workshop (9 storage, 2 workshop, 1 empowerment) = 100k
Invention Crafting Table = 25k
IO Storage Bin = 95k (holds 100 crafted IO's)
Salvage Storage Bin = 15k (holds 25 salvage items)

If you plan on needing a Personal Storage Vault (100k, uses 5 Energy & 5 Control), you will need at least the Oversight Center (50k, 3x3, 1 workshop item, 1 storage item, Combo Unit) and a Combo Unit (25k, produces 125 Energy & 75 Control, only 1 per base) to provide Energy and Control.

All told, you'd be looking at around 600k prestige, depending on what you drop into the base. The total would be a little higher if you cram the rooms to their limits for storage items, but 600k is enough for the Oversight Center, Combo Unit, one 2x2 Workshop, Personal Storage Vault, Invention Crafting Table, and several storage items.

The total is obviously quite a bit lower if you don't need/want the Vault item.

I have something similar to what you're asking about, but I wanted all the teleporters, too. It was a pain in the rear to try to keep track of it all so I built a database to track costs and names and types and stuff... I'm going to save you some trouble. And also, I'm sorry to double post some of what Pyber already listed.

Notes:
A base can ONLY have 18 "Storage" bins (IE Salvage, enhancement, inspiration, or vault).
Oh, and a correction to the above note, a Salvage Storage can hold 30 items.

I wanted to have every salvage possible in my base, so here's how I broke them down.

There are 36 Common, Uncommon and Rare salvage. Each one is listed past all my notes with the name in alphabetical order, then the type (Arcane or Tech), and the level range you would find them (1 - low, 2 - medium, 3 - high).

So, 36 Common Salvages @ 5 of each = 180 Salvage
Each bin holds 30, so 180 / 30 = 6 bins

36 Uncommon, same math as above = 6 more bins

36 Rare = 6 more bins. This totals 18 "storages", but this does not leave room for the enhancement tables, or the vault.

So, I did 1-2 of each Rare, and only have 2 bins for Rare salvage. 18 in one, and 18 in the other.

Now, that totals 14 Storages - all salvage, leaving room for 1 Vault, 2 enhancement tables, and 1 extra (I did inspiration).

So, the costs:

Oversight Center 50000
Combo Unit 25000

2X2 Workshop Room 100000 (These can only have 9 Storage items per room)
Vault 100000
Enhancement Table 95000
Enhancement Table 95000
Invention Worktable 25000
Storage Bin 15000
Storage Bin 15000
Storage Bin 15000

As a note, if you want to fit 9 storage racks in a 2x2 room you will need to stack them. It's pretty simple and I think there's some guides to doing it on the board somewhere.

Indeed, there are threads related to stacking as well asYouTube tutorials.
