Game Mechanics Maintenance is the credit value required for a structure to be operational. Maintenance is deducted from the credit pool on the structure at every hour even if the structure is unoccupied or not in active use. If the structure's pool gets to zero then the deductions begin to be made from the player's bank account. If the bank account reaches zero then the deductions are taken from the player's onhand cash until that to reaches zero. Should all of the above become exhausted then the structure starts to be come damaged. Maintenance is important to structures due to its affect on their condition values. Condition marks the total amount of hit points (damage) that a structure has before it is destroyed. Condition loss represents a point value that is subtracted from the structure object's total Hit Point count during a cycle period. Cycle periods vary in duration from 30 minutes for non city structures up to a week for city municipal structures. Whenever a structure's condition reaches zero, it will then be destroyed and removed from the world. Condition loss on structures is also affected by the remaining credits within the maintenance pool. For example if the hourly maintenance is 1000 credits and the condition loss for the structure per 30 minute cycle is 100 units then a structure with 500 credits remaining will suffer a condition loss of 50. Condition loss can be reversed through the structure repair process. Repair costs are inccured when a structure has no maintenance and its cycle period comes up. Each object has a set amount of credits that it takes to repair one unit of condition loss. Repair costs add cumulatively, and factor into the total maintenance cost when the owner goes to pay it off. The structure will be repaired to full condition once the repair cost requirement has been fulfilled. Adding Maintenance to Structures The Maintenance Pool of a structure can be viewed by the structure (or the Structure Management Terminal), selecting the Structure Management radial menu and selecting the Status option. This will bring up an SUI window which lists the current credits deposited as maintenance in the structure. Each type of structure has its own unique credit requirements. Maintenance pools listed under the status window indicate the length of time that the structure can continue existing in the game world with its current maintenance stockpile before condition loss begins to set in.
