Goodaye,
Attempting to wrap my head around Wealth and how it works. I've managed Research, Industry, Shipyards and Ships without problems but info is a little sketchy on Wealth.
So am I correct in assuming the following specifically regarding money going out the door and not in (found a good post on how that works)...
For anything that involves Build Points - Ships, Installations, Shipyards, Ordnance and Fighter production etc. the cost in Wealth is indentical to the cost in BP's.
There is a similiar relationship with Research Points but I 'm unsure what it is. 1 for 1?
Ground Units cost Wealth to maintain. How is this figured?
Maintenance Facilities appear to cost Wealth to operate as do Maintenance Supplies. What is the wealth cost here?
Oh, and could I second the gentleman that requested that your total current Wealth be displayed somewhere more prominently than the Vista-invisible window task bar (F2). Finding that was a challenge.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Plugger

Other than Research, everything costs one wealth 'point' per ton of Trans-Newtonian Elements it consumes. Research costs . . . 1 wealth per RP I think. I'd have to double check

Yes, 1 RP = 1 wealth

In general, Steve has set things up so that all of the points are equal, e.g. if something costs 657 "production points", then it will cost a total of 657 tons of minerals and 657 wealth.

Fair enough. Given that I'm probably batting zero for correct forum postings I've disabled the shotgun and changed my medication.
