BioSynth Laboratory

The BioSynth Laboratory or Biosynthetic Lab is a dedicated one stop shop for drugs. It serves as a secondary upgrade choice to the vanilla Light Industry structure but loses on a significant level of versatility in return for a massive boost to Recreational Drug production. This structure is unlocked by completing the Drugs Amplification technology and is a more specialised upgrade choice in comparison to the Consumer Industry. Unlike its counterpart, it produces drugs regardless if the Colony is a Free Port.

It can be further refined by using either a Story Point and/or AI Cores. Additionally, it can accept the Biofactory Embryo special item.

• Story Point: Increases Industry Production by (+1) Recreational Drugs.
• Gamma Core: Reduces Demand by (-1) Organics.
• Beta Core: Reduces Demand by (-1) Organics and reduces Upkeep by 25%.
• Alpha Core: Increases Industry Production by (+1) Recreational Drugs. Reduces Demand by (-1) Organics and reduces Upkeep by 25%.
• Biofactory Embryo: Increases Industry Production by (+2) Recreational Drugs.
