It means that you can't just sit in one sector forever. It incites expansion. But yes, a universe with one galaxy you will eventually run out of resources. However, the resource pools are only drained in NPC faction territory, so they have to have every sector.Well, this is where I am a bit lost. If the NPC faction has to mine their resources, it will run out at some point, right? But that will just lead to the galaxy losing all of its resources. This is not really fun to play, is not it?
Also, Schine mentioned about replenish rates. If they mentioned about it, there has to be a new system that might work in a different way.
