Empire Status Window

Description

| This window allows you to get an overview of your empire's resource spending. It takes the form of a balance sheet where what you produce is listed at the top, then the amount you are currently spending is deducted, and finally the net resources is listed as the total. |

Controls

| Resource Production Per Turn | This section lists all of the different areas where you can produce resources. "From Our Colonies" lists all of the resources that our colonies are producing per turn (see Resource Types for more details). "From Trade" is the resources we generate per turn from trade (this is a total of the individual trade amounts seen on the Empires Window).

"From Tariffs" is the amount of resources your empire receives from Empires that are subjugated by you (see Treaties for more details).

"From Remote Mining" is the number of resources per turn that your ships with remote mining components are generating.

"Total" is the total amount of resources per turn that your empire is producing.

| Resource Expenses Per Turn | This section lists all of the different areas where we are spending resources each turn. "Tariffs" is the amount of resources that our empire must pay each turn to the empire which has subjugated us (see Treaties for more details). "Maintenance Cost" is the amount of resources that must be payed each turn to maintain our ships (See Maintenance for more details).

"Construction Queue Usage" is the amount of resources that our construction queues are currently using. (See Construction Queues for more details).

"Total" is the total amount of resources per turn that your empire is expending.

"Net Resources Per Turn" is the total resources your empire is producing minus the total resources your empire is expending. This result can be either positive or negative.

| Resources in Treasury | In addition to the amount of resources you are generating, there is the amount of resources you currently have on hand. "Current Total" is the total number of resources that your empire currently possesses. Each turn this amount will change based on the "Net Resources Per Turn" amount.

"Maximum Resource Storage" is the total number of resources that your empire can store. Any resources you accumulate in excess of this amount will be lost. You can increase this amount by building more Resource Storage Facilities.

Special Notes

| It's important to try and maintain a positive "Net Resources Per Turn". If it goes negative, then it means that you are spending more resources than you make. And you'll eventually run out. |
