The engine must be in this planet's Colony Stores and this planet's [[Engineering Lab]] must meet its grade (31 / 33 / 35). An installed engine calibrates first (72h Forge, 24h Recovery) with its bonus rising in quarters, then can be overcharged (paid by this planet; 7 days or until its wear runs out, then it burns out) or scrapped. The Engine Bay shows calibration and wear bars; once it gives a bonus (from the first calibration step), the build progress bar and the Graveyard screen show it, and ship build times show the boosted time with the normal time struck through.

			=== Flight Time Calculator ===
			From '''Realm 3''' (game config <code>fleet.flightTimeCalculatorMinRealm</code>), the clock button in the Shipyard header opens the '''Flight Time Calculator'''. It uses the same formula as launching a fleet, so the result is exact when every input matches the sender.

			* '''Sender''': ''My fleet'' uses your own research, monuments, class, Regnal Honor and the active colony's [[Gravimetric Tower]]. ''Other player'' lets you enter another player's speed bonuses to time their fleet.
			* '''Route''': launch and target coordinates, and whether the target is a player (PvP), a pirate (PvE), the sender's own colony or an ally. Same-system PvP attacks take longer than pirate attacks, and own-colony targets use convoy speed bonuses.
			* '''Fleet''': mission (attack, coordinated strike, station, transport, scout, dispatch), the ship types in the fleet (it flies at the slowest ship's speed) and the speed setting (10–100%).
			* '''Other player's bonuses''': drive research (Chemical Propulsion, Ion Propulsion, Warp Technology, Quantum Drives), convoy research for own-colony targets (Supply Chain Mastery, Colonial Expansion), speed monuments and their levels, class, Regnal Honor and the launch planet's Gravimetric Tower level (a moon launch uses its planet's tower).
			* '''Warp hop''': for your own fleet the best exit gate and readiness are picked as in the send screen. For another player, enter the exit gate coordinates and, when they launch from a planet through its moon's Warp Gate, the Ascension Gate level; readiness uses their Warp Technology level.
			* '''Result''': flight time, warp gate readiness, launch-to-arrival time, the arrival time if sent now and, for attack, transport and scout, the time the fleet is back home.

			A scout report that reached the target's research has a '''Calculate their flight time''' button under Researches. It opens the calculator with the scouted colony as the sender and your active colony as the target, with research levels and the scouted colony's Gravimetric Tower filled in. Monuments, class and Regnal Honor are not in scout reports, so enter them yourself.

			== Ship Construction Time ==
			Ship construction time is determined by the ship's base build time, your '''Shipyard''' level, your '''Engineering Lab''' effect.

			The player-facing formula is:<pre>Final Ship Build Time
			= Base Ship Build Time
			× (0.9 ^ Shipyard Level)
			× (0.5 ^ Nano Construction Level)
			× (1 / Engineering Lab Effect)</pre>Where:

			* '''Base Ship Build Time''' is the ship's listed base construction time.
			* '''Shipyard Level''' reduces build time multiplicatively.
			* [[Engineering Lab]] '''Effect''' multiplies overall production speed.

			=== Engineering Lab Effect ===
			Engineering Lab has two phases:<pre>
			Engineering Lab Effect = 1 + 0.25 × Engineering Lab Level for levels 1 to 10
			2.0 for level 10 and above
			</pre>This means:

			* Level 1 = 1.25x speed
			* Level 2 = 1.50x speed
			* Level 3 = 1.75x speed
			* ...
			* Level 10 = 2.00x speed
			* Level 11+ = still 2.00x speed

			In other words, the Engineering Lab ramps up to double production speed by level 10, then stops increasing further for ship production.

			=== Example ===
			If a ship has a base build time of 10,800 seconds, and the colony has:

			* Shipyard Level 8
			* Nano Construction Level 0
			* Engineering Lab Level 6

			then:<pre>
			Engineering Lab Effect = 1 + (0.25 × 6) = 2.5
			Final Time = 10800 × (0.9 ^ 8) × (0.5 ^ 0) × (1 / 2.5)
			</pre>This gives the actual ship construction time for that colony.

			=== Notes ===

			* Shipyard level always matters.
			* Engineering Lab always matters.
			* Nano Construction only matters if it is active in your game ruleset.
			* No other construction-speed research is referenced in the currently loaded live building/research data for ship production. [oai_citation:2‡buildings.json](sediment://file_00000000c100720a88ad0b1e9bc0bd5e) [oai_citation:3‡buildings.json](sediment://file_00000000c100720a88ad0b1e9bc0bd5e)

The '''Shipyard''' is the industrial heart of any spacefaring empire.

Here, fleets are assembled from raw materials into fully operational starships ready to patrol the galaxy.

Shipyards combine heavy orbital construction platforms with planetary manufacturing complexes capable of assembling hull sections, propulsion systems, and advanced weapon arrays.

== Mechanics ==

* Enables construction of all ships.
* Larger ship classes unlock at higher levels.
* Construction speed improves with research upgrades.

== Lore ==
Shipyards are among the largest structures ever built by colonial engineers. Massive orbital gantries stretch kilometers into space, where ship hulls are assembled piece by piece before their first launch.

From small reconnaissance craft to colossal capital ships, every vessel begins its life within the dry docks of a shipyard.

== Strategy ==
Shipyards are essential for military expansion.

Higher levels become increasingly valuable when:

* Producing large fleets
* Unlocking advanced ship classes
* Accelerating ship production during wartime
