*[[File:AM box.png]] AMR Parts can be ordered from Cargo for 2000 points. This crate will contain an additional 9 segments.
*The antimatter reactor injects the specified amount every 6 to 8 seconds.
*[[File:Am jar.png]] Fuel Jars cost 2000 points for a single jar.
*[[File:Am jar.png]] Antimatter containment jars contain 10,000 units of antimatter each. Divide that by the number of units being injected to see how long one will last.


Adding segments to the Antimatter Engine will increase the number of cores, in turn allowing you to safely increase injection rate. Remember that this will also cause the engine to deplete fuel faster.

The power produced by an antimatter engine as it is expanded has linear growth, and is given by the formula: ''(Injection Rate)^2 * 20000 / (Number of Cores).'' If you are injecting at the maximum rate, this can be simplified to ''Injection Rate * 40000''. Eight cores should be enough to power the station fully at full injection, producing 320 kilowatts.
