so as I understand it, ME0 = 10% waste, ME -1=20% waste, ME -2 = 30% waste... and ME -5 = 60% waste.

in producing a t2 ship, it requires 1 unit of the t1 version of the ship. If the wastage factor is 50% or above, would this cause you to require 2 ships due to rounding? Or are ships a special case and exempted from material waste?

thanks

Hello Kodama,

everything marked as "extra" in the bill of materials is not subject to ME waste. So no, you will only need 1 ship. Regardless the ME Big smile
