Will these domed planets ever grow larger?

[Suicide Junkie]

Yes. In the same tech area, too.

After 3 levels of conditions improvement plants, you get 3 levels of value improvement plants.
After that, there are three levels of "Atmosphere Converter" facilities.
The higher tech ones work faster, taking only 20 turns intead of 30.

Once the atmosphere is converted, you can scrap the converter. The domes will be gone, and the space on the planet will go up 5x.

Wellcome to the Boards.

1: Change the population with someone who breathes that particular athmosphere.
You can trade population with friends or capture population from enemies.

2: Build an athmospheric convertion plant.
Need to research 7 levels of Planet utilisation to get AMP 1.

3 answers within a minute, hows that for service.

There is also an atmospheric converter facility that will change the atmosphere to you races starting atmosphere. It is a high level tech and it will take time to convert the atmosphere after it is built.

Edit: BLast you beat me to it.

Nice, you can actually trade populations in this game. Like the famous Johnny Carson line, "Ach! I did not know that!"

And I was thinking that you had to conquer to get populations of different races. I guess the only worry would be the issue of the new population having different politics of what keeps them happy.

The only statistics that the captured populations retain are;
- The picture
- The atmosphere breathed.

The happiness modifiers of the aliens become the same as your own, except that they have a natural anger increase instead of a decrease

You'll have to do a bit of work to keep 'em happy.
I reccomend a few 100kt of troops

Thanks! Couple of more easy ones. Will the atmosphere converter also convert the climate? As in, can I wait until the atmosphere converter and get the same end effect as if I used the climate converter first. And if that's the case, is there a benefit to converting the climate first?

Thanks again
