Construct Dilithium Generator B is an early station mission in Star Trek Fleet Command with one objective: build your second Dilithium Generator. It needs only warp 1, and the game lists a recommended level of 1. The reward is 100 Tritanium and two 3 Minute Repair Speed Ups, and completing it unlocks the next station mission. The generator matters more than the reward, since it adds a second steady supply of Dilithium.
Construct Dilithium Generator B objectives
The story line asks you to expand your Dilithium production to acquire more of this valuable resource. There is one objective and no choice split:
- Construct Dilithium Generator B.
No system is named, no hostile is listed and nothing is donated. The mission clears when Dilithium Generator B is built.
Where and what warp
Warp 1 to start, warp 1 to complete, no pickup system. The whole mission happens on your station. The recommended level is listed as 1, but the building has its own unlock requirement.
What building the generator needs
Base values from the game’s building data for Dilithium Generator B:
| Level | Cost | Build time | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 400 Parsteel, 300 Tritanium | 45s | Operations 13, Dilithium Generator A 1 |
| 2 | 500 Parsteel, 350 Tritanium | 2m | Operations 2, Dilithium Generator A 2 |
| 3 | 600 Parsteel, 400 Tritanium | 3m 30s | Operations 3, Dilithium Generator A 3 |
Dilithium Generator B unlocks at Operations 13, and Dilithium Generator A must already be built. After that, each early level of B needs Generator A at the same level. Base production is 2 Dilithium per hour at level 1 and 12 per hour at level 5, and the game describes Dilithium as a mineral needed for research and advanced ship components.
Construct Dilithium Generator B rewards
| Reward | Amount |
|---|---|
| Tritanium | 100 |
| 3 Minute Repair Speed Up | 2 |
Completing the mission also unlocks the next station mission.
How it compares with other construct missions
| Mission | Rewards |
|---|---|
| Construct Dilithium Generator A | 440 Tritanium, 12 1 Minute Repair Speed Up |
| Construct Dilithium Generator B | 100 Tritanium, 2 3 Minute Repair Speed Up |
| Construct Dilithium Warehouse | 460 Tritanium, 12 1 Minute Repair Speed Up |
| Construct Tritanium Generator B | 140 Tritanium, 2 1 Minute Repair Speed Up |
Generator B pays less Tritanium than the first Dilithium Generator mission, but its repair speed ups are longer, at 3 minutes each rather than 1.
Tips
Build it as soon as Operations 13 is done. At 400 Parsteel, 300 Tritanium and 45 seconds, it is cheap, and a second generator adds Dilithium output straight away.
Keep Generator A ahead. Early levels of Generator B need Generator A at the same level, so upgrade A first when you plan the next step.
This mission follows Upgrade Operations to Level 14 and leads into Upgrade Dilithium Generator B to Level 2. The generator family is covered on the Dilithium Generators page.
