* Upgrades become available based on the number of personal ships you own.
* The general rule is that with every six (6) ships you buy, an upgrade "unlocks" - it can take a while however to get the upgrade offer and it might be necessary to have some buy/sell activity to trigger the upgrade
* With every six (6) ships you increase, an upgrade "unlocks" - it can take a while, upgrades average appearing every 8-12 playing hour between them. 
* Each upgrade improves the fleet efficiency by 50 credits/ship (as far as we know now)
* Each upgrade improves the fleet efficiency by 50 credits/ship  
* The initial cost is the cost of the upgrade at the minimum number of ships (see below).
* The initial cost is the cost of the upgrade at the minimum number of ships (see below). If you go over the minimum ships needed to unlock the upgrade, as a penalty you will pay the additional '''multiplier cost per ship over'''. 
* If you choose to purchase the upgrade later its cost will be: number of personal ships x multiplier, so the initial costs are only when you buy the upgrade at the minimal required amount of personal ships
* Cost will be: number of personal ships x multiplier per ship over, so the initial costs are only when you buy the upgrade at the minimal required amount of personal shipd.  Watching getting to far ahead in ships as it can become very costly to upgrade if over while your credit income is still low and you have other expenses such as colonies and disasters to pay also.
* Purchasing upgrades are finished at 177 personal ships (you will get additional upgrades given to you which are listed below)

''Remarks''
====Remarks====
* From amount of ships needed 123, there is no cross-reference yet, so the amount of ships needed and price can be other than mentioned (up to 123 ships, the list is 100% accurate)
 
  (The accuracy may not be 100%, some players have mentioned getting these upgrades in a different order than it is listed, one example is getting the upgrade to sling-shot before upgrading the rest of the fleet to tiny ships. There may be 2 separate lists of upgrades, similar to TE where you could upgrade land separate from upgrades in living conditions. Just an idea... )
