Environmental Resistance
What does the Environmental Resistance racial characteristic do?
------------------
It's not whether you win or lose that counts: it's how much pain you inflict along the way.

Re: Environmental Resistance
Right now, it decreases the effect of bad 'conditions' on your race's ability to reproduce. A race with 'normal' Environmental Resistance can have it's reproduction reduced to zero by 'harsh' conditions, for example, but a race with +20 percent Environmental Resistance would continue to reproduce at a reasonable rate.

Re: Environmental Resistance
Really? I remember Posts saying that its effect was just like reproduction, a straight +/- X % growth
If it means better growth on harsh planets, but no effect on optimals, that would be the best.

Re: Environmental Resistance
Every 5 points in env. res. raises pop growth by 1% regardless the conditions. If you put 81% to env. res. and add 3% to pop growth, you get some extra points with a compensated modifier.

Maybe, I think the manual claims so. But I cannot remember any successful tests on that, would be hard to observe I guess. My settings are always psychotic/bloodthirsty and environmental resistance at 81%... without any severe mood problems, it is easy to keep the pop jubilant, so if there is a modification this should be just marginal. Found a nice Thread on the Env. Res. issue:
