it runs every 5.9 minutes. there is a small chance in cosmic terms that the shipyard will cycle and you will see the exact same ships. If you do, go buy a lottery ticket.

You know, yesterday, my little girls rotating musical toy that has all the different animals on it hit 'Cat' seven times in a row. If I win the lottery, 1st thing I'm doing is hiring someone to fix the SQL and server kit process. Then I'm taking everyone out for drinks. And then sticking J'inn with the bill. ;)

Nope, economy has been running at the default of every two turns since testing.

Turns are every 5.9 minutes. The economy is run every two turns. We can increase it to every turn but I suspect that will increase crash frequency until the shiplist is fixed.

Hmmm, crashing the server -vs- the current inconvenience of waiting 12 minutes to watch it build freighters instead of CVD's & STL's..
I think the answer is obvious  ;D

Confirmed. The shipyards run with the economy - currently set to every 2 turns - will be adjusted to every turn next reboot.
