Master Shipyard

[Reggae]

Hi,

what advantages does a Master Shipyard give me over a Large one. I'm presuming its reduced production time on some if not all recipes?

[Quineloe]

master shipyard has 5 times the production power of a 3 lot shipyard

phew! LSB's included?

With advanced structures it's always all recipes.

Unfortunately, it now has only 2.5 times the labour of a 3 lot Large Shipyard.

This gives it the same labour:lot ratio as an Advanced Medium Shipyard but it is beaten by both standard and advanced Small Shipyards, which is why I almost always run one or more small yards as well as I make lots of small and medium ships.

The full list is:

				Lots	Labour		Recipe
					Multiplier	hrs per lot
Small Shipyard			1	50%		2
Advanced Small Shipyard		1	40%		2.5
Medium Shipyard			2	50%		1
Advanced Medium Shipyard	2	40%		1.25
Large Shipyard			3	50%		0.67
Master Large Shipyard		4	20%		1.25

Thanks very much for the explanation, very interesting.

I'm pretty sure the tooltip said the Master Shipyard only uses 10% of the recipe time when I looked the last time?

But everybody gets 50% labour cut on all recipes. Another thing FLS screwed up with.

Maybe my math is wrong but 10% to 50% is the same as 20% to 100%.

There is nothing wrong with your maths, and maybe the tooltip did say the Master Shipyard only uses 10% of the recipe time when you looked the last time, but were you to look today you will find it says,

This structure reduces the labor required by recipes to 20% of the original.
