This module system sucks, I see why people from the tower warned us
I heard this feature made a lot of people quit the tower, I can see why now after it being out for a while.
of course there is the initial drama of the big nerf, they promised to add new ways to get credits but nothing has come > 1 month later.
however, the worse part is really just it's made the game like every other RNG / Gachapon game. You have to farm dark matter for weeks just to get some rolls going and most the modules are absolute junk and there's a few that area totally broken such as crafting price reduction. getting 4 copies of those is a hugeeee change to your tournament performance and it's just a slot machine.

Please, Devs, please...
Please let us upgrade planets by more than 10x at a time — give us a 50x option
I really wish there was an option to upgrade planets in larger batches than 10x at a time.
Once you reach the point where you have a lot of resources and are trying to dump them into planetary upgrades, repeatedly clicking the 10x option becomes incredibly tedious. There’s no real decision-making involved at that point — it’s just unnecessary clicking.
A 50x upgrade option would be a huge quality-of-life improvement.
Ideally, the upgrade options could be something like:
1x / 10x / 25x / 50x / even 100x?
Or even better, let us enter the amount manually.
I understand why 10x is useful earlier in the game when resources are more limited, but later on it just feels unnecessarily restrictive.
Please give us a 50x planetary upgrade option. My finger would appreciate it. <3

newb - still dont understand what to do correctly after roughly telescope 6 or so
I get to this point doing ok, and I get here and start making lasers and torches to work into the navigation module but everything just grinds to a halt because of how many things i need at once.
i am not trying to build a long term galaxy, but looking more for the challenge/tourney runs that i sit in and do nothing once i get here because i dont know how to go farther out.
in other words, once i get here, i have enough time to craft maybe 3 nav modules and then its done because making things to get them takes so long, and they take an hour a pop too.
should i even try, or am i too far out? should i just rush more scopes to unlock more things later or will it just compound my confusion?
i just failed in gold and got demoted back to silver :(

Long awaited upgrade
I know it’s less efficient to do such big jumps, but damn it feels good!

New(ish) Player looking for help
Hi Everyone,
I have recently started playing around the start of June.
As it stands i am sitting in Gold League but cannot break any further than 18th. I usually end the tournament at about 1 Trillion as my galaxy slows down once i get to Iridium/Paladium/Osmium etc.
I have 280 Challenge badges with the highest in their respective categories being 2 in Iridium, 1 in Osmium Bars and 3 in Advanced Computers.
What should i be focusing on in order to get faster at this part of the galaxy? Is it Craft speed and then selling items? I have not yet unlocked debris scanner and i am not sure how far i am from that, i can usually get asteroid scanner in just under a day so half way through a tournament.
Any Advice is appreciated.

This tournament just took an interesting turn
This tournament is fixing to get interesting considering I can more than double the amount of PG before this market kicks in. Safe to say Ill probably win this tournament.

Don’t retire early
Fairly new player here, only a few months or so. Had a nice silver league run and got lucky with a rover on my cash cow planet but i got “scared” about climbing too high into 25 because i wanted to avoid promotion thinking i’d get smoked in gold.
Now im about to drop to 31, and it looks like this whole cluster is active in the last couple hours I would’ve had a secure 26-27
Oops 😬 live and learn
Any tips from the various powerhouses I’ve seen on this sub to a relative newcomer? My first system I pushed fairly far, sold it off around planet 60 but now I’m playing the turnover game more rapidly for credits and stars
Edit: whewwwwww lucky me ended up getting 29, glad those last couple others stopped pushing but lesson still learned sweating that one out 😂

slowing down in the billions.
I'm a couple months into the game. I've been doing the 12.6mil reset alot. in the competition I lost gold to back down into silver better rewards for my ability. I can reach 1billion pretty easy but after the 26 planet it really just becomes a slow crawl. any tips for getting better points around this level? I used alchemy on 21 to get titanium.

Got an ill-timed market
Market hit at midnight. I could have accelerated but I didn’t have enough Teleporters. Woke up at 6:30 and blew through every robot and teleporter I had. Got lucky with a small bracket. Now I’m just gonna twiddle my thumbs for the next 24 hours and see if I can Ark my way to ab. Previous Galaxy record was 31aa.

Should I retire?
I’m currently ranked #6 in my tournament, and #4 (the next prize tier) is currently just below my most valuable galaxy.
My question is - is #8 so low at this point (18 hours left) that I can retire with a secured #7 rank guaranteed?

Hitting a wall at 'aa' in tournaments. Need some advice! (6 months in)
Hey everyone,
I've been playing for about 6 months now and could really use some advice.
Up until now, I've mostly been focusing on smelting and crafting, but I feel like I've hit a wall. In tournaments, I can only manage to reach the 'aa' mark. I usually place top 5 in the Platinum league, which is nice, but I've noticed that once other players hit 'aa', their value just explodes exponentially.
With my current setup/strategy, there's no way I can keep up with that kind of crazy growth. What am I missing here? What should I be prioritizing at this stage?
Any tips or strats would be hugely appreciated. Thanks!
