NOTE: Population mood doesn't appear to affect production

[Suicide Junkie]

Sorry, population modifiers most definitely do affect yardless worlds.

In P&N PBW, there are modifiers that go down to -90% on worlds with very few people.

It takes these planets 8 turns to build a basic miner facility, and up to 40 turns for a spaceyard.

Once the population gets to a reasonable level, the build rates rise as well.

This is so?

Population modifiers affect Construction without a Space Yard?

Do they do so in the unmodded game?

Happiness does not change Construction, it seems, so are HI and % to Construction the only bonuses restricted to Space Yards?

Yes, population modifiers do affect construction on all worlds in the unmodded game.

Hardy Industrialists and Construction Aptitude only affect planets with a SY on them, as they modify SY rates, not "construction" rates.
