Upgrades to Weapon Platforms, How?

[ColdSteel]

It appears that you cannot upgrade weapon platforms on a planet. Is this correct?

If that's so, does anyone know why not?

If you can, how the $#%&$ do you do it?

[Marty Ward]

I think you have to create an new platform and jettison the old one if you need the room.
Seems odd that you can't, maybe it's because they don't need a spaceyard to be built.

You can't. No units can be upgraded. That's the balance for the fact that they don't require upkeep.

Okay, thanks for the info. Just wish they had put that in the HTML manual somewhere (grumble, grumble). http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/tongue.gif
