How does unit upkeep work?
For every unit you own you have to pay 1gc maintenance per tick. They also use 1 unit of food per tick, except for droids (these mechanical units do not need food). You can not lower these costs unless you lower the amount of troops. Therefore, the following is how your unit upkeep is calculated: Upkeep in gc = (total amount of units) * 1gc Upkeep in food = (total amount of units – total amount of droids) * 1food Please note that if you don’t have enough cash for at least two ticks +1 gc worth of upkeep you will be informed that your fleet is disbanding. This disbands at a rate of 1% of your total fleet per tick (which works for every 100 units, for example, if you only have 99 or less droids, none will disband, if you have 199, one will disband and so on…). Note: Your fleet will not actually disband if you still have gc left after a tick, even if the game tells you it is. It will not disband for real until you completely run out of gc.
