You can get by without robots but they definitely make things much more efficient. Milestone 6 is not difficult but requires that you focus a little on either a Robot Facility or trading to acquire robots. Press to see Prestige status - star value under welfare bar. You should have both before you even bother building the Signpost etc. You can also build a radio antenna and radio console (in a security center) and accept requests for aid which will reward prestige. Prestige value generally increases as you expand, but can also be boosted by building a Signpost, Pyramid and Monolith. Milestones 4 and 5 happen over a little time but are also not difficult. Milestones 1, 2, and 3 are easily done and will happen without thinking about them. Milestones can be earned out of order you may see blank spots in the 10 blocks indicating the milestones when you go to start a new planet. Technocracy: Acquire all Techs from tradersДЎ0. Expansion: Have new colonists land at your base (by building a Landing Pad).Д©. Self Sufficiency: Build a Meal Maker (in a Canteen), a Mine, a Bioplastic Processor & a Metal Processor (in a Processing Plant) and a Bio-Dome.ДЈ.

Survival: Survive one day on your planet.Дў. Statements marked with * seem to be correct but have not been rigorously tested.The milestone list in order is as follows:ДЎ. If you shift-click, you can add/remove 10 items at the time. If you hold the left mouse button down, you can speed up the counter. Purchased goods will be dumped in a pile on the landing pad, and colonists will eventually move them to a Storage dome. When the trader has all the items you promised they will complete the trade and leave. You can select the ship to see what goods still need to be delivered. Once you have agreed to a trade, your colonists and carrier bots will carry your goods to the trader's ship. For example, a trader with a 40% markup values your Bioplastic at 10 but values their own Bioplastic at 14. The trader effectively overvalues their own items by their markup value.

The markup appears to be random* and varies between 35% and 65%*. Note that the main UI's resource counter includes resources assigned to construction, so if items are 'missing' from the trade window then they are likely sitting on the ground somewhere waiting for construction.Д®ach trader charges a fixed markup, which is visible once any item has been selected for purchase. Resources assigned to construction (buildings or components) cannot be traded, regardless of whether they have been delivered to the construction site yet. Input resources to production stations are not available but output resources are available. You can sell any unused resources in your base. Once you have built the Starport you are allowed to remove the regular Landing Pad, but not before. Large Colonist Ships that land on the Starport may carry up to 4* colonists. Note that the ship types allowed in Landing Permissions apply to all landing sites, so small Visitor Ships may land at the landing pad once Visitors are unlocked. The landing pad also allows you to build a Starport, which handles larger ships and unlocks the Visitor ship type. Click on the trade ship to open the trading window. Trader Ship: Brings a selection of goods, coins, bots, and techs for you to purchase in exchange for your goods and coins.Colonist ships will not arrive if your colony's welfare is too low. The profession of each colonist is based on the percentages you set in the Landing Permissions panel. Colonist Ship: Brings 1-3* new colonists to your base.By default, both Colonist and Trader ships are allowed. Building it unlocks the Landing Permissions panel, which allows you to restrict which types of ships are permitted to land at your colony. The landing pad is a very important part of your base and is required to obtain more colonists. Small colonist or trading ships can land here.'
