RESOURCE COLLECTION READOUT

exactly how much of each resource your base is producing, and how each is
being used.
• Lost. Red blocks are resources lost to inefficiency (see Inefficiency, p. 118).
• Used. Blocks to the left of the bar are being used for maintenance of units
and facilities already completed (minerals) or to feed the population of the
base (nutrients).
• Surplus. Blocks to the right of the bar are surplus, and are going to population
growth (nutrients), project completion (minerals), or energy allocation (energy).
