A step up from [[#Making Mountains of Molehills (3 of 10)|mission 3]], manufacturing the Cap Boosters (from a BPC given by the agent) is a little more involved. | '''{{co|#9ef37c|Granted when accepted:}}''' Cap Booster 25 BPC. | ||
* It needs three different kinds of minerals to manufacture (Tritanium, Pyerite, Mexallon - you can find this out by plugging the BPC into the Industry window and checking the inputs). | |||

* It needs three different kinds of minerals to manufacture (329 Tritanium, 80 Pyerite, and 25 Mexallon - you can find this out by plugging the BPC into the Industry window and checking the inputs). | |||
* Then, in turn, right-click on the three input minerals and check their "Show Info" windows to determine what ores they are reprocessed from (or you can look at the [[Reprocessing#Ore|ore table on the wiki]]. | * Then, in turn, right-click on the three input minerals and check their "Show Info" windows to determine what ores they are reprocessed from (or you can look at the [[Reprocessing#Ore|ore table on the wiki]]. | ||
* You will discover that all three minerals can be reprocessed from Pyroxeres or Plagioclase ore, which can be found in systems with a [[security status]] of 0.9 and below. | * You will discover that all three minerals can be reprocessed from Pyroxeres or Plagioclase ore, which can be found in systems with a [[security status]] of 0.9 and below. | ||

* Once you have mined enough of the right kind(s) of ore, return to your station, reprocess the ore into minerals, and start the manufacturing process. | * Once you have mined enough of the right kind(s) of ore, return to your station, reprocess the ore into minerals (note that as before, ores can be only reprocessed in increments of 100), and start the manufacturing process. | ||
Alternatively, you can just buy either the minerals or the Cap Boosters from the market; they are usually not particularly expensive. However it's may still be worth going through the steps above in order to get a better understanding of the thought process behind manufacturing. | Alternatively, you can just buy either the minerals or the Cap Boosters from the market; they are usually not particularly expensive.
