Resources

There are six resources in FrEee: minerals, organics, radioactives, research, intelligence, and supply. They are generated by components and facilities. All but supply are used at an empire level, while supply is used at a vehicle level. Minerals, organics, radioactives, and supply can be stored from turn to turn, but research and intelligence must be used immediately or they will spoil. There are limits on how much of each resource you can store; any beyond that will be spoiled as well. You can increase your limits by building appropriate facilities or components, e.g. mineral resource storage or supply storage.

Minerals, organics, and radioactives are used to build things such as vehicles and facilities.

Research is used to unlock new technologies.

Intelligence is used to perform intelligence operations. (This is not yet implemented.)

Supply is used to keep your ships functioning; ships without supplies move very slowly and cannot raise shields or fire weapons.

Eventually we will add moddable resources.
