Later on, the options of Solar Satellites (located in the Shipyard) and the Fusion Reactor (located in Facilities) are available. The easiest method, and only option at the beginning, is the Solar Plant. This energy can be produced in several different ways. In doing, so you will need more energy to power them.
To get more out of the mines and the synthesizer, they have to be upgraded.
Deuterium does not have a base production. Without any upgrading, the Metal and Crystal Mine have a base production of 30 units of Metal and 15 units of Crystal (per hour). There are three different resources that can be produced in OGame: Metal, Crystal and Deuterium. Within Facilities there is also a small divide because some can only be built on a planet and others on a moon. Resources include mines, storages, and energy producers all remaining structures are classed as Facilities. The buildings are classified into two groups, Resources and Facilities. Most are requirements for further buildings, research, ships or defensive structures, without which it's not possible to make headway. Since the dawn of time, buildings have been the foundations of your account because they provide you with vital infrastructure.
