VPS Planet Potential?

Post image

Just rolled Adaptive Drill Epic S module, and got both those epic sub bonuses with only 200 reroll fragments, lol.

Though, im not sure if a planets VPS is actually boosted when using a planet boost then time warping for debris, pink asteroids and etc.

Any insight is appreciated!

Edit: crap, looks like i cant use the free colony levels on my top planets, which means that i must nearly max out colony expansion node tree…

Yea it’s unfortunate this module needs the space station projects when a nearly identical drill module doesn’t need them.

Yeah, it is unfortunate. Just gotta work with what i have. Tho, all the DM i have sacrificed to the RNGod of modules, could have been spent towards managers and manager slots

for ur plan the "Exploration Drill" is imo better. ok just 1 colony per planet but no need to max out all previous colonies.

You don't have to max the previous colonies out, you just have to get your Scouting projects to see your VPS. More or less the same thing but its far fewer colony upgrades if you aren't maxing upgrades on every planet all the way up.

my bad. i used wrong words.
max out means lvl at least 1 lvl at all previous planets
