Overview
Rent is an in-game charge to Supergroups based on what they posses in their bases. The rent system in-game has been changed three times since it was initially introduced in Issue 6, first with a tax system which was later replaced with a flat rent based on base size, which was then itself replaced with a charge based on possession of certain items. The developers have stated they are still looking into base rent, so it will likely change again in the future.
Rent is paid with Prestige by speaking with the Super Group Registrar. This charge is normally made 2 weeks after the last payment, with a 2 week period for it to be turned in. A further 2 weeks is generally allowed before bases are negatively effected. A group with long overdue rent cannot make further upgrades to its base until the rent is paid, and ultimately if the debt is left long enough, access to the base is completely cut off.
Current Calculations
Beginning in Issue 13, base rent will be calculated based on the number and type of items placed in a base. Plot size and security/hidden status no longer have any effect on rent. Please note that Items of Power no longer provide Upkeep bonuses under this new system.
| Item Type | Rent |
|---|---|
| Storage Items (per bin) | 100 prestige |
| Auto-Doc / Tree of Wonders | 100 prestige |
| Robo-Surgery / Spirit Signal | 100 prestige |
| Advanced Worktable / Advanced Forge | 100 prestige |
| Expert Worktable / Expert Forge | 100 prestige |
| Robotic Fabricator / Flames of Hephaestus | 100 prestige |
| Radiation Emulator / Enchanting Crucible | 100 prestige |
| Linear Accelerator / Arcane Crucible | 200 prestige |
| Supercollider / Mystic Crucible | 300 prestige |

Second Rent System
Base Rent will be calculated solely on your plot size. The larger the plot, the larger the rent. Secure plots also pay more rent, due to the number of defenses they are allowed to have. When they are re-introduced, Items of Power will reduce the amount of Rent due.
| Plot Name | Plot Size | Rent |
|---|---|---|
| Tiny Hidden Spot | 8x8 | 0 |
| Small Hidden Spot | 8x12 | 20,000 |
| Small Hidden Spot | 12x12 | 43,000 |
| Small Secret Location | 12x16 | 65,000 |
| Small Secret Location | 16x16 | 105,000 |
| Large Secret Location | 16x20 | 145,000 |
| Large Secret Location | 16x20 | 145,000 |
| Small Hidden Complex | 20x20 | 200,000 |
| Small Hidden Complex | 20x20 | 200,000 |
| Small Hidden Complex | 20x24 | 280,000 |
| Large Hidden Complex | 24x24 | 350,000 |
| Massive Hidden Complex | 24x28 | 610,000 |
| Small Secure Location | 12x16 | 200,000 |
| Small Secure Location | 16x16 | 420,000 |
| Large Secure Location | 16x20 | 750,000 |
| Small Secure Complex | 20x20 | 1,300,000 |
| Small Secure Complex | 20x24 | 2,100,000 |
| Large Secure Complex | 24x24 | 3,200,000 |
| Massive Secure Complex | 24x28 | 5,000,000 |
Original Rent System
The old base rent system was both a rent, and a tax. While the exact calculation is unknown for several parts of this formula,
(X * Z) + Y = rent
X = total amount of unspent prestige sg currently has as corresponding to a look up table. Ex: 10,000 free prestige would be 2, and 13,000 would be 3
Z = total number of objects subjectable to the tax (ex: control items, power items.. this excludes most decorations)
Y = rent charged per plot size + rent per room
The Table used in the Y portion of the equation is currently unknown, but most likely is similar to the new calculations, just at a larger amount.
The X amount can be lowered down to 0, thus avoiding the tax portion of equation provided the base architect has kept a good track of when the base rent will be calculated, and spends all loose prestige ahead of time.
