Game Mechanics

Redeeding is the process of reclaiming the original deed used to generate a particular structure. To redeed a structure a player must pay a fixed fee for the structure. This fee is based off of a simple calculation which is:

50 x maintenance rate

where maintenance rate is the hourly rate at which the structure is currently charging. For example a structure with a maintenance rate of 90 will have a redeed cost of 4500 credits in which the player must have in order to reclaim the structure. This process is affected by the current maintenance pool and condition value on the structure. The structure will use any currently available maintenance in the pool to deduct the re-deed fee from. Structures that have any condition loss below 100% cannot have their deeds reclaimed until the structure's condition loss has been repaired. Additionally a structure cannot be re-deeded if the maintenance pool in the structure is insufficient to cover the cost of re-deeding it. Any structure that is re-deeded without paying the maintenance cost will be destroyed. Furthermore the player re-deeding the structure must be the structure lot owner.


Re-deeding has some more special conditions when it comes to structures like factories and harvesters. Before you are allowed to re-deed a harvester or factory, several additional requirements must be met:


  • The harvester or factory must be turned off.
  • The input & output hoppers must be empty.


Surplus Maintenance and Power remains during a re-deed; if you examine the deed in your inventory, it will show the amount of maintenance and power in the harvester.



Re-deeding

To initiate the re-deeding process the player must click on the Structure Management radial menu and select the Destroy Structure radial option. Once clicked, one of two new Sui Windows will pop up informing the player of whether or not they can redeed the structure. One of the types of windows the player may see is shown if they do not have enough credits that are needed to re-deed the structure. If the player receives this notification and continues with the re-deeding process, then they will simply destroy the structure and will not reclaim the deed. The second type of window a player may see displayed, is shown when they have sufficient credits to support the re-deeding process and can proceed with reclaiming the deed.

After players move past the confirmation window phase of the process, they are then presented with another SUI prompt which requires them to enter a random 6 digit code into an input window. Entering this randomly generated code correctly and pressing the OK button will then remove the structure from the game world and the player will collect their deed (or simply destroy the structure if they didn't have sufficient credits in the maintenance pool).
