ERN Portal
Upgrades take 2 minutes to reach 100% efficiency and scale linearly up to their 100% efficiency numbers.
| Upgrade Name | Upgrade Effect at 100% efficiency |
| Energy Collection | +50% energy generation |
| Mine Production | -50% production delay on factory resource producers |
| Build Speed | -50% build packet request delay |
| Move Speed | +50% unit move speed |
| Fire Range | +25% weapon range |
| Fire Rate | -25% weapon fire delay |
Move Speed
Base speed for a ground unit is 0.09 (or 2.7 cells per second).
Base speed for bombers is 0.35 and 0.25 for AC bombers.
Ground units, flying units, and the Refinery drone get a 50% movement speed increase.
Terp drone doesn't get a speed increase and has a speed of 2.
Porter drone doesn't get a speed increase and has a speed of 0.8.
ERNs don't get a speed increase and have a speed of 0.2, and 0.02 when drifting.
Energy Income
This table lists how many seconds a tower takes to pay for itself once operational depending on the situation, and includes the miners for comparison. The EC is the ERN portal's energy collection upgrade.
| Unit | Repayment time | EC Repayment Time | Energy/Sec at max | EC Energy/Sec at max |
| Tower - 121 Soylent | 27 | 22 | 0.333 | 0.5 |
| Tower - 121 Soylent 50% Eco | 15.5 | 12.7 | 1.0 | 1.5 |
| Tower - 40 Soylent | 49.3 | 34.3 | 0.11 | 0.166 |
| Miner | 40 | 26.7 | 1.0 | 1.5 |
| ERNed Miner | 8 | 5.3 | 5.0 | 7.5 |
So basically if you place a tower that can make 121 soylent and it survives for at least 27 seconds, it has paid for itself (a good guideline might be 30 seconds to take into account distance inefficiency). If it died at any point past that, it would have been worth it to build for energy generation. Note that the ERN portal's energy generation upgrade doesn't reduce the initial payoff time as much as you might think, because most of that time is waiting for the soylent to accumulate.
Every 6 tiles of soylent will generate approximately 1 energy per minute. With the ERN portal energy upgrade, every 4 tiles of soylent will produce 1 energy in a minute.
There's also efficiency loss based on the time it takes a packet to get to the tower, but at the absolute worst that's only a 20% drop in income.
1)
Assumes short travel times where tower inefficiency doesn't come into play
2)
The actual value is within 1% of that, (i.e. 6 tiles of soylent will produce .992 energy/minute)
