Steemnova Ultimate Guide - Resources & Dark Matter
Hello in this part of the guide I will be talking about resources and dark matter.
In Steemnova there are 4 types of resources: Metal, Crystal, Deuterium and Energy
Metal: Can be obtained from Metal mine. It is used mostly in building (structures, feet, defense). For trader, one unit is worth: 0.5 Crystal and 0.25 Deuterium. Mines are the cheapest and require small amount of energy to work.
Production for hour: 60*Level of mine*1.1^Level of mine
Energy consumption: 20*Level of mine*1.1^Level of mine.
Crystal: Can be obtained from Crystal mine. It is used mostly in research. For trader, one unit is worth: 2 Metal and 0.5 Deuterium. Mines are the most expensive and require moderate amount of energy to work.
Production for hour: 40*Level of mine*1.1^Level of mine
Energy consumption: 20*Level of mine*1.1^Level of mine
Deuterium: Can be obtained from Deuterium Refinery. It is used mostly in fleet flights and research. For trader, one unit is worth: 2 Crystal and 4 Metal. Refinery cost is moderate but required amount of energy to work – the highest. Production depends of the planet's temperature, the lower temperature the higher the production.
Energy consumption: 60*Level of mine*1.1^Level of mine
Energy: You need this to run Mines and Refinery. There are three ways to obtain Energy:
- Solar power plant – safest but most expensive way to get energy. Production is the same on every planet. Production: 40*Power plant level*1.1^Power plant level
- Solar Satellites – Cheap but very risky. Production is different on every planet, the higher the temperature higher the production, used often in Gravitron research.
- Deuterium power plant. Use deuterium as fuel. Production: 60*1.1^Deuterium power plant level. Energy consumption: 20*Level of mine*1.1^Level of mine
Dark matter: it's a strange resource, there are no mines but every player receives 100 units for every 6 hours. Can be used to buy boosters and officers. However there is a way to obtain extra Dark Matter – Expeditions and Gathering by Dark Matter Collector from the moon.

Yes more, these are excellent for the community man!
Im sure it will keep a lot of players playing the game and give a lot of direction.
