The Oceanic Terminal is a special goods building of the Oceanic Future that sends out a submarine on Oceanic deep sea expeditions to collect Orichalcum. Researching Deep Sea Exploration the 17th technology unlocks the terminal.
Production[]
This building produces Orichalcum (
), a special good of the Oceanic Future.
One trip to the deep sea provides the player with 50 orichalcum. The submarine requires the selection of three crew members from five randomly offered crew members. The amount of harvested orichalcum can be augmented or reduced by the crew members. A damaged submarine also reduces the amount of orichalcum acquired.
The standard expedition time of the submarine is 24 hours. By upgrading the Oceanic Terminal and hiring certain crew members, the expedition time can be decreased to a minimum duration of 7 hours.
Submarine damage[]
Taking a trip to the deep sea damages the submarine by 13%. A damaged submarine hauls less goods and needs more time to take a round trip. A highly damaged submarine also costs more goods to repair.
| Name | Damage % | Orichalcum | Travel time | Repair cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hull | 10% | -2 | +25 min | 12 of each OF good |
| Propeller | 30% | -8 | +130 min | 25 of each OF good |
| Driving Plane | 50% | -16 | +295 min | 50 of each OF good |
| Bridge | 70% | -28 | +510 min | 80 of each OF good |
| Main Engine | 90% | -40 | +760 min | 120 of each OF good |
First Upgrade[]
The first upgrade reduces the standard travel time of your ship to 22 hours. Your ship capacity increases by 5 (to 55). Unlocks by researching 
Seasteading. Still only 3 crew per trip
After researching Advanced Aquanautics – add 4 new crew candidates – still 3 slots in terminal.
Second Upgrade[]
The second upgrade reduces the standard travel time of your ship to 18 hours. Your ship capacity increases by 8 (to 63). Unlocks by researching Aqualoop.
After researching Electronic Tattoos the choice window will give you 6 Crew members to choose from instead of 5 plus two additional crew candidates. Can still only send 3 crew on ship.
Third Upgrade,[]
The third upgrade reduces the standard travel time of your ship to 17 hours. Your ship capacity increases by 5 (to 68). Unlocks by researching Research Grant, opens 4th crew slot to travel on ship.
With this upgrade your ship must have 4 crew members.
After researching New Recruits – 2 new crew candidates
After researching Marine Engineering – 1 new crew candidate
Crew Members[]
You can hire crew to travel in your submarine and get orichalcum. They will also gain 100 experience points each time you use them. When they gain levels, they will perform even better.
| Level | Experience required |

|---|---|---|
| 1 → 2 | 500 | 6 of each OF good |
| 2 → 3 | 700 | 10 of each OF good |
| 3 → 4 | 900 | 12 of each OF good |
| 4 → 5 | 1200 | 16 of each OF good |
| 5 → 6 | 1500 | 20 of each OF good |
| 6 → 7 | 2000 | 28 of each OF good |

| 8 → 9 | 3600 | 48 of each OF good |
| 9 → 10 | 4800 | 66 of each OF good |
The cost to hire a crewman is 30 random Oceanic Future goods.
