Re: Building New Planets

Thanks, I'm interested to see if this works. But won't it cost more than building them normally? Sure you only pay 80% at each step, but you pay 80% several times. Even if you only retrofit once...

Re: Building New Planets

Your abbreviations threw me off a bit, what do RD and the variants (I assume P0-5 = plate 1-5, and c0-5 = cable 1-5; but what is RDS1-5?) stand for?

So what you do is build the in-progress bases...

Re: Is starbase design with all resources equal possible ?

You could minimize the higher mineral effect from the hull by sticking on enough organic weapons/armor to balance the minerals. Then you'd only lack a small amount of energy.

Re: Event modding

I don't know the data files well enough, but if it is possible it would involve adding the effect from ruins as an event file entry.

Re: cumulative systemwide building bonus warning?

The problem with those guys is that they have several abilities, not all of which overlap. The warning comes on whenever an overlap is discovered even if the facility in question has non-overlapping...

Re: TG Contest and upgrading designs in queues

Re: Can some atmosphere be changed to none ?

Yeah, it's not a big deal, especially with that option to ban colonizing worlds other than your own home type and atmosphere. THAT's going to be really interesting!

Re: Making neutrals a bit tougher...

Neutrals are very limited in what you can do to mod them. They cannot have any non-average values nor any racial abilities (special techs, ancient race, etc). And they only use a few of the AI files....
