# Builder **Construct a new future for humans on Mars.** Builders take the biggest gamble on Mars. They have to assemble the complex resource chain required to manufacture new buildings — but each time they do, they earn a chance to own that structure. Do you want to make a living, or build an empire? *** **Relevant Item Types:** 1. Linear Rail 3D Printer 2. 3D Printing Robot 3. Construction Utility Vehicle 4. Ore Processing Plant 5. Cargo Rocketship 6. Crew Rocketship **Strategic Resource Production:** 1. Construction Materials **Appeals to:** Players who want to manage buildings. This role focuses on Construction Materials and Building-related rewards. *** ### Progression Requirements | **RANK** | **EFFICIENCY** | **CONSTRUCTION** | | -------- | --------------------- | ---------------- | | 1 | 50% for 1 day | 1,300 | | 2 | 60% for 2 extra days | 5,200 | | 3 | 65% for 3 extra days | 13,000 | | 4 | 70% for 4 extra days | 26,000 | | 5 | 75% for 5 extra days | 52,000 | | 6 | 80% for 6 extra days | 104,000 | | 7 | 85% for 7 extra days | 182,000 | | 8 | 86% for 8 extra days | 286,000 | | 9 | 87% for 9 extra days | 468,000 | | 10 | 88% for 10 extra days | 754,000 | | 11 | 89% for 11 extra days | 1,196,000 | | 12 | 90% for 12 extra days | 1,820,000 | | 13 | 91% for 13 extra days | 2,860,000 | | 14 | 92% for 14 extra days | 4,160,000 | | 15 | 93% for 15 extra days | 6,240,000 | | 16 | 94% for 16 extra days | 9,100,000 | | 17 | 95% for 17 extra days | 13,260,000 | | 18 | 96% for 18 extra days | 19,240,000 | | 19 | 97% for 19 extra days | 28,600,000 | | 20 | 98% for 20 extra days | 39,000,000 | ### Progression Rewards **Cumulative Production Increase Reward** CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS outputs are % higher for Linear Rail 3D Printer, 3D Printing Robot, Construction Utility Vehicle, Ore Processing Plant, Cargo Rocketship and Crew Rocketship. **Cumulative Input Reduction Reward** ALL inputs are % lower for Linear Rail 3D Printer, 3D Printing Robot, Construction Utility Vehicle, Ore Processing Plant, Cargo Rocketship and Crew Rocketship. **Cumulative Resistance Increase Reward** Linear Rail 3D Printer, 3D Printing Robot, Construction Utility Vehicle, Ore Processing Plant, Cargo Rocketship and Crew Rocketship have % increase in resistance. **Cumulative Repair Reduction Reward** Linear Rail 3D Printer, 3D Printing Robot, Construction Utility Vehicle, Ore Processing Plant, Cargo Rocketship and Crew Rocketship have % reduction in repair and reactivation cost.
