Alien Spawn Information (thanks to TSTOTopix)

Does anyone know the max for the egg spawn/Grem-aliens (i.e. the Gremlin pallet-swaps)?

update: every 5 minutes, 50 max in the town, and it appears there’s a “bank” or buffer that can hold 30.

I don't think there is a bank or buffer. I didn't enter my feeder town for 24 hours and I only got 150 probe. And after clearing all the Rigelians, they appeared every 5 minutes. But that town is way behind. Maybe the bank/reserve accumulates the more you progress in the quest line.

Thanks for the info.

Has anyone been able to confirm that there is a bank in the game?

Not that I know of. But it's interesting info.

This is something that people need to stop making a big deal over. The game itself tells you, we honestly don't need the forumers telling us, too.

The "game" tells me what is SUPPOSED to happen. I've never seen a bank. I enter my town in the morning, clear out my rebellions, counting as I go ... And then collect my rents, task 110 characters, etc. I have not seen a second wave show up. If it was not for the forum, I would not know that -- as you say -- the. Game "tells" me that.

Incidentally ... Where did the GAME tell YOU that?

I stand corrected. It CAN happen. Just got a slew of whatchamacallits in a second wave, shortly after clearing out my first 30 of them. First time for me. (Happy!). Maybe it was a glitch and they fixed it?

I tested it earlier today after being away.

I opened the game up and let it sit for a minute so the aliens all congregate in one spot. Then I squished all of them and counted exactly 50, confirming the town max of 50. I didn't check again later for a second wave as @annette observed--will try that tomorrow.

Through testing, I can also confirm that 1 additional alien spawns every 5 minutes.

This means that you must check in every 250 minutes (4h 10 min) in order to not lose any aliens -- not too bad. If the bank actually works (I'm not optimistic), you could stretch out your check-ins to once every 400 minutes (6h 40 min).
