The main goal in Bacterial Takeover is to destroy as many planets as possible.
Attacking a planet uses up all [[Resources#Bacteria|bacteria'''Bacteria''']], and [[ColoniesResources#Nanobots|'''Nanobots''']], and resets [[Resources#NanobotsColonies|nanobots'''colonies''']] and resets bacteria [[Upgrades|'''Bacteria upgrades''']]. Destroying planets unlocks new upgrades and features, such as [[Research#Colony Irradiation|colony Colony irradiation]] or [[Research#Nanobot Production|Nanobot production]]. After entering a '''[[Black Hole]]''', the player enters an alternate timeline where none of the planets have been destroyed. The planets in the alternate timeline have the same stats and defenses, but can unlock different features. For example, destroying the fifth planet after the first Black Hole unlocks [[Research#Bacteria Irradiation|'''Bacteria irradiation''']]. The first 34 planets have unique descriptions and artwork, but the others are generated automatically. <br><br><div style="float:left; padding-right:30px; padding-bottom:20px ">__TOC__</div> =Planet Attacks=Initially, it's possible to attack a planet only once you have enough [[bacteria]] to destroy 100% of the population. Starting from Planet 6, you can attack an unlimited number of times until it is finally destroyed. A planet counts as destroyed if its remaining population has been reduced to 0. However, it's not possible to attack a planet if the player cannot destroy enough population to gain even 1 [[Gene Strands|Gene Strand]]. The amount of population that is destroyed during the attack is equal to the total of the population destroyed by [[Resources#Bacteria|Bacteria]] and [[Nanobots]]. ==Using Bacteria==The formula that determines the percentage of population that will be destroyed by [[Resources#Bacteria|Bacteria]] is based on the [[SIR Model|SIR model]] for the spread of infectious diseases. For this reason, it can sometimes take more Bacteria to kill the last 1% of the population that it was required to destroy the first 99%. The total number of Bacteria required to destroy 100% of the initial population is calculated according to the following formula:  '''BacteriaNeeded = Population × 9.9 × 15<sup>[[Planets#Shields|ShieldLevel]]</sup>'''  ==Using Nanobots=={{nanobot productionformula description}} ==Rewards==Killing a percentage of a planet's population earns [[Gene Strands]]. If the player has already unlocked [[Minerals]], completely destroying a planet also has a chance to drop a [[Minerals|Mineral]] native to the current planet. Destroying planets also unlocks new game mechanics and [[Upgrades|upgrades]]. ==Reset==Both attacking and destroying planets resets certain [[Resources|resources]], [[Upgrades|upgrades]], and bonuses<u>Attacking</u> a planet '''resets''':* [[Resources#Bacteria|Bacteria]]* [[Colonies|Bacteria Colonies]]* [[Upgrades#Bacteria Upgrades|Bacteria Upgrades]]* [[Nanobots]] (if the planet was not destroyed)
A planet counts as destroyed if its remaining population has been reduced to 0. Killing a percentage of <u>Attacking</u> a planet's population earns gene strands and there is no limit to how many times the player can attack one planet to destroy it. ''does not reset''':* [[Gene Strands]]* [[Upgrades#Gene Strand Upgrades|Gene Strand Upgrades]]* [[Evolved Bacteria]]* Bonuses from [[Planetary Research]]* [[Achievements]]* [[Diamonds]]* [[Resources#Scientists|Scientists]]* [[Resources#Dark Matter|Dark Matter]]
However, it's not possible to attack <u>Destroying</u> a planet if the player cannot gain even one gene strand or if he has less than 1 bacteria.'''resets''':* Bonuses from [[Planetary Research]]
Each subsequent <u>Destroying</u> a planet '''does not reset''':* [[Nanobots]] that were not necessary to destroy the planet increases in population and defenses.
After entering =Planet Population=<div class="page_icon">[[File:population.png|80px]]</div>Each planet has a larger population than the previous one. Population can reach [[Black HoleLarge Numbers|'''large numbers''']]in early game, which are displayed using [[Large Numbers#Abbreviations|abbreviations]] or [[Large Numbers#Scientific Notation|scientific notification]], if it has been enabled in the player enters an alternate timeline where none of the planets have been destroyedsettings menu. The planets in higher the alternate timeline have the same stats and defensespopulation, but can proc different features. For example, destroying the fifth planet after the first Black Hole unlocks more '''[[Research#Bacteria Irradiation|bacteria irradiationGene Strands]]''' can be earned from completely destroying the planet.
There Even though planet population is no known limit to how many not technically a form of defense, planets there with higher population are in the gameharder to destroy, because they require additional [[Resources#Bacteria|Bacteria]] to infect.
=Population=It's possible to view the population of previous planets since the last [[Black Hole]] in the '''Destroyed Planets''' panel.
=Defenses=
Currently, there are two types of planet defenses: nanobot Nanobot resistance and antibacterial shields.
===Nanobot Resistance===
Nanobot resistance reduces the effectiveness of nanobots[[Nanobots|Nanobots]]. There are 4 tiers of  {{nanobot resistancetable}} Nanobot resistance coefficient is determined by Nanobot resistance and it is used to calculate the effectiveness of Nanobots when [[Planets#Planets#Using_Nanobots|attacking the planet]].<br><br>---- <br>[[File: noneShields.png|150px|left]] ===Shields=== ::::::::Starting with '''[[Tesmielara]]''' (Planet 20), lowall planets have shields, medium, highwhich makes them harder to destroy. ::::::::The shield level increases by 1 for each planet. So the next planet after Tesmielara will have Level 2 shields and so on.
