The most abundant resource — the base currency for construction and research.
Space Dust is the most common resource in the sector and the foundation of your economy. Almost everything you build or research costs Dust, so a strong Dust income underpins your entire growth curve. You begin with 2,000 Dust.
Dust is produced by Dust Extractors, which are stackable — you can run several at once. It pays for building upgrades, research, and warship construction. It is also the most commonly raided and traded resource. Keep your Storage Vault leveled so Dust production never overflows.
