| + | Planets can support one of each type of structure. They cost [ManualPlanetWarsEconomy#Metal energy] to build and [ManualPlanetWarsEconomy#Energy energy] to function. Anyone can build a structure on any faction-held planet. The output of that structure, if any, is added to your resource [ManualPlanetWarsRoles#Quota quota]. Once built it requires a few turns to become active. Larger, more expensive structures take longer to power up. | ||

They will shut down and become non-functional if there is insufficient energy. [ManualPlanetWarsRoles#Roles Economic leaders] can set energy priorities for each structure to control which structures are kept running during a brownout. | ||
Structures are disabled when destroyed ingame or if a successful invasion occurs on their planet. A structure disabled by an attack or power loss requires a few turns to reactivate. This time is twice as long as their initial activation time. | Structures are disabled when destroyed ingame or if a successful invasion occurs on their planet.
