BPS
,no edit summary
BPS adds to the total number of owned [[Resources#Bacteria|'''Bacteria''']] even when not tapping or when the app is closed. The player starts with 0 BPS and increases it by purchasing different [[Colonies|'''bacteria colonies''']].
In later game, percentage increases or [[BPS#BPS modifiers|'''BPS modifiers''']] become available. BPS modifiers can be local to one colony type or affect the global BPS. Since attacking a planet means losing the current bacteria Bacteria colonies, permanent BPS modifiers are a way of quickly recovering the bacteria Bacteria production rate.

[[File:Idle bonus.png|thumb|200px|The yellow bacteria indicate that the idle BPS bonus is active]]
Some BPS modifiers provide a boost to idle bacteria Bacteria production.
Idle BPS bonus becomes active if the player hasn't tapped on the main screen for over a minute.
It is indicated by the Bacteria changing color to yellow. Pressing on any of the menu buttons or the ''[[Red Bacteria|red bacteria]] '' does not break the idle BPS bonus.
Idle BPS bonus can be obtained from Gene Strand upgrades, Evolved Bacteria, and the Dark Frequencies technology in the [[Dark Matter Institute]].
