Strategy Guide

Export optimization strategies

Early Game (Level 1-5)

  • Focus on simple items with low input costs (Titanium Sheet, Wolfram Wire)
  • Prioritize items with high value per input ratio
  • Build relationship with one corporation first (Training Corporation is easiest)
  • Aim for 1.1x multiplier before switching corporations

Mid Game (Level 6-10)

  • Start crafting intermediate items (Electronics, Battery, Coil)
  • Compare ROI between different corporations
  • Use the batch planner to optimize production cycles
  • Consider value per minute for time-sensitive goals

Late Game (Level 11+)

  • Focus on advanced items (Superconductor, Electromagnet, Scanner)
  • Maximize profit with high ROI items (100%+ return)
  • Diversify exports across multiple corporations
  • Use reputation multipliers (1.3x-1.5x) for maximum returns

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which corporation pays the best prices?

It depends on the item category. Check the "Best exports by corporation" heatmap above to see which corporation values each item type highest. Generally:

  • Clever Corp: Best for mechanical and electrical items
  • Moon Energy: Best for power and energy-related items
  • Selenian Corporation: Best for structural and scanning equipment
  • Future Enterprise: Best for advanced technology
  • Griffiths Dynamics: Best for precision instruments
What does ROI mean and why is it important?

ROI (Return on Investment) shows your profit percentage relative to material costs. Formula: (Export Value - Material Cost) / Material Cost × 100%

A 100% ROI means you double your money. Items with 140%+ ROI are excellent choices for profit maximization.

Should I prioritize value per minute or ROI?

It depends on your bottleneck:

  • Value per minute: Choose this if you have abundant materials but limited time
  • ROI: Choose this if you have limited materials but plenty of time
  • Best approach: Balance both metrics based on your current situation
How do reputation multipliers work?

As you increase reputation with a corporation, they pay more for your exports:

  • Level 1-4: 1.0x (base price)
  • Level 5-7: 1.1x (+10%)
  • Level 8-9: 1.2x (+20%)
  • Level 10: 1.3x (+30%)
  • Level 11+: 1.5x (+50%)

Use the "Reputation multiplier" filter above to see adjusted prices for your current level.

What items should I avoid exporting?

Generally avoid items with:

  • ROI below 50% (unless you need quick cash)
  • Very high input costs relative to output value
  • Long build times with low value per minute
  • Items you need for your own production chains
How often do export prices change?

Export prices are fixed per game version. Our data is updated with each game patch. Current version: Hotfix 0.1.2 (Updated: Jan 23, 2026).

Reputation multipliers can change as you level up with corporations, so check the adjusted prices regularly.
