The Shipyard is a building where you can send ships out to gather resources.

Weather

Weather is a modifier to the resource gain of your shipments.

Weather changes over time, except when you start a mission, then weather stays the same until you collect the shipment.

The effect of weather is affected by certain upgrades.

If you have bad weather, then it's advisable to wait until the weather changes, or consider re-starting a shipment if the weather has improved shortly after it starts.

Shipments

You can send your ship out to gather shipments.

Every time you collect a shipment, your reward bonus is increased by increasing shipment number by 1, which additively increases the reward bonus by your bonus/shipment percentage.

You can upgrade your bonus modifier per shipment, which recalculates you reward bonus by multiplying shipment number by the new percentage bonus.

There are 6 options of shipments

  • 5 minutes: White Cubes
  • 15 minutes: Orange Cubes, Brown Cubes, and Red Cubes
  • 60 minutes: Green Cubes, Blue Cubes, and Purple Cubes
  • 4 hours: Yellow Cubes, Light Blue Cubes, and Pink Cubes
  • 8 hours: Cyan Cubes, Gray Cubes, and Black Cubes
  • 24 hours: Gems, and Exotic Gems.

Sea miles

As long as your ships are out making shipments, they are gaining sea miles. Unlike shipments, this gain happens continuously, regardless of if the shipment completes.

The formula for sea mile gain is 0.0002 / sec. * ShipmentConstant (which is 1 for 5 min. shipment, 2 for 15 min., 3 for 1 hour, etc.) and the skill raises the shipment constant to the power of 1.2. So with the skill, a 24-hour shipment has a constant of ~8.59, and is that much better than doing 5-min shipments.

Like everything else in the Shipyard, sea mile gain is affected by the Power Plant.

Sea miles earn you the following Milestones:

Miles Name Description
1 Freshwaters Increases resource rewards (excluding gems and exotic gems) from shipments by 10%. (multiplicative)
8 Third Mate Unlocks temperature forecasting.
15 Offshore Increases resource rewards (excluding gems and exotic gems) from shipments by 25%. (multiplicative)
25 Second Mate Unlocks wind forecasting.
40 Dead Sea Increases resource rewards (excluding gems and exotic gems) from shipments by 30%. (multiplicative)
100 Engineers Island Increases production from resource producers in the factory (excluding gem and exotic gems) by 1% per shipment.
200 First Mate Unlocks humidity forecasting.
250 High Seas Multiplies resource rewards from shipments (excluding gems and exotic gems) with your town level.
500 Cave Islands Increases all mining resource rewards (town resources, shards and gems) by 1% per sea mile.
1250 Atlantic Ocean Increases resource rewards (excluding gems and exotic gems) from shipments by 100%. (multiplicative)
5000 Pacific Ocean Increases resource rewards (excluding gems and exotic gems) from shipments by 200%. (multiplicative)
15000 Sea Bear Increases resource drops from enemies during tower testing by 1% per sea mile.
27500 Atlantis Each shipment increases all mining rewards (town resources, shards and gems) by 100% (additive with itself)
50000 Mariana Trench Increases resource rewards (excluding gems and exotic gems) from shipments by 400%. (multiplicative)
100000 Sea Lion Increases resource rewards (excluding gems and exotic gems) from shipments by 5% per sea mile. (additive with itself)

Upgrades

Upgrades can be bought to provide bonus to shipment reward.

Shipment Rewards Upgrades

  • Improved decks (Max. 400 levels): Increase the reward bonus per shipment by 0.05%.

That means, multiply the resource gain by x(1+0.05%*upgrades*shipments)

Weather Effects

  • Bigger sails (Max. 100 levels): Increase the weather exponent by 2%.
  • Stronger keel (Max. 50 levels): Increase the weather exponent by 3%.
  • Reinforced hull (Max. 20 levels): Increase the weather exponent by 5%.

Each weather effect upgrades stack additive with itself, but different weather upgrade stack multiplicative.

Note that the power effect also apply to weather debuffs.
