Outposts

Outposts can be found often in the world map. When the player finds one, they can purchase weapons, defence, intelligence, and security upgrades for a price.

As the player purchases more upgrades the more costly the upgrade will be for the next purchase. For example, a level 1 upgrade may cost a mere 200 Mars Dollars, while a level 6 upgrade will cost 1725 Mars Dollars. The price will only increase for the category of the upgrade purchased. For example, if the player has level 4 defence and level 5 weapon, and has enough Mars Dollars to purchase the level 6 weapon upgrade and decides to, the weapon upgrade price will increase while the level 4 defence upgrade price stays the same.
