Stargate Project
The Stargate Project is the aim of the Boldly Go gamemode. It is completed in 10 phases which all require different quantities of items or other requirements.
These items are usually Stargate Components though occasionally other items are required such as Tilium Crystals and Stable Isotopes.
The construction of the Stargate is loacted in the central Star System of the starting Sector. The final goal is to have a fully operational Stargate.
Phases
Phase 1: Certification
- Contract: This phase is completed during the Deep Space Industrialists contract, where the player partners with Alexander James Elistar.
- Requirement: Manufacture and deliver 10 Stargate Frames for certification.
- Outcome: Unlocks the Stargate Window and provides $600,000 in seed capital for scaling production.
Phase 2: Bulk Manufacturing & Partnership
- Contract: This phase concludes the Deep Space Industrialists contract.
- Requirement: Manufacture and deliver 200 Stargate Frames.
- Decision Point: Upon delivery, the player must choose between honoring the 50/50 profit split with Elistar or canceling the partnership, which results in the immediate loss of the A.J.E. Foundry station.
Phase 3: Advanced Components
- Requirement: Deliver 250 Stargate Actuator, 250 Stargate Resin, and 100 Stable Isotopes.
Phase 4: Crystal Refinement
- Requirement: Deliver 200 Stargate Receiver, 150 Stargate Actuator, and 250 Tilium Crystals.
Phase 5: Power-Up
- Requirement: Build 5 Energy Transmitters and install them on a ship.
- Activation: Use a ship capable of delivering 1,000 MW to activate the stargate.
- Maintenance: Maintain 100 MW continuous power to keep the gate online.
Phase 6: Exploration
- Action: Jump through the stargate to a new, unexplored sector.
- Exploration: Explore 3 new star systems (arrival zone, Zeleon Gas cloud, and an Asteroid Belt with Neubidium Ore).
- Research: Research Zeleon Gas and Neubidium Processing.
- Requirement: Deliver 75 Neubidium Ingot and 30 Stable Zeleon.
- Maintenance: Continuous 100 MW power to the stargate is required.
Phase 7: Confrontation
- Narrative: Commander Harken reports new star systems are occupied by Pirates.
- Action: Explore 2 "FORTRESS"-marked asteroid systems guarded by Weapons Platforms.
- Research: Research Zeleon Energy Containment and Neubidium Fabrication.
- Requirement: Deliver 140 Zeleon Energy Cell and 160 Neubidium Capacitor.
- Maintenance: Continuous 100 MW power to the stargate is required.
Phase 8: Crystal Synthesis
- Action: Contacted by the Andromeda Project Representative, assigning a research task.
- Action: Meet Prof. Artemis Toppingbury to deliver 1 × Shielded Zeleon and 1 × Neubidium Ingot.
- Action: Complete a short tutorial on radiation safety and containment using the new Laser Infuser.
- Requirement: Deliver 10 Charged Crystal to the Stargate.
Phase 9: Final Assembly Components
- Action: Phase starts automatically.
- Requirement: Deliver 100 Charged Crystal and 100 Warp Alignment Computers.
- Research: New research Quantum Processing becomes available.
Phase 10: Final Activation
- Requirement: (Details to be filled in later).
