Resources
Resources are various nuggets or secondary components used in factories or weaponry. Generally, resources fall into three categories: Raw Resources, Refined Resources, and Ammunition.
Depending on the category, they can be mined from asteroids, salvaged from ships, or produced by factories. All resources are purchasable from stations or trade ships, limited by the current amount of stock.
Raw Resources
Raw resources are obtained from asteroids and are used to produce refined resources and ammunition within factories. The single exception is Hyperium, which Hyperdrives use directly in raw form.
All raw resources stack to 5 per m2 of storage, except for Hyperium at 20 per m2.
Refined Resources
Refined resources are used to build parts, and can either be salvaged from ships or produced by factories.
Ammunition
Ammunition is used to supply Projectile Weapons and can be produced by factories or salvaged from some ships. (Not all ships carry ammunition.)
