Activate production boosters

A booster temporarily increases one type of production on a planet. The current collection includes boosters for minerals, microchips, hydrogen, food, power, credits, science and diplomacy.

Activating a booster consumes one copy of its card. Its profile shows the bonus and duration. Boosters in the current catalogue last one hour, and their strength depends on rarity.

Step by step

1. Select Boosters in the planet controls and open Archive.
2. Choose one of your cards that boosts the production you need.
3. Check staffing, power and available storage.
4. Read the effect and confirm activation.
5. Check the remaining time and status before trying to use another booster.

The current limit is one active booster per planet. After it ends, wait five minutes before activating another. Use the in-game timer to see when you can activate one again.

Activate a booster when you can make use of it. Without enough workers or with a full storehouse, you may waste part of its benefit.
