Maintenance
Consumed continuously to keep the facility running. Starve it and it degrades.

StarvedAt least, when supplies hold out. Sensor arrays flash yellow warnings, some habitat zones show declining air quality, and filtration membranes need replacement.
Upgrade Chain (4 tiers)
| Tier | Facility | Build Cost | Build Time | Labor | Power | Life Sup. | Materials |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| L1 | Life Support System | 600,000 | 150 | 40 | — | — | 2 |
| L2 | Environmental Processor | 1,800,000 | 225 | 60 | — | — | 2 |
| L3 | Habitat Corethis tier | 5,400,000 | 300 | 80 | — | — | 3 |
| L4 | Biosphere Module | 16,000,000 | 375 | 100 | — | — | 3 |
Each tier is built by upgrading the one below it. Cost, build time and power draw climb with the tier; the recipe it runs stays the same.
