Shrinking planet capacitly??

A side note on the advanced storage trait: races with this trait don't seem to start off with the extra population on their homeworlds. My current game has the Terrans playing (who use the Advanced Storage Trait). When I looked at the comparisons screen, I noticed that their population had steadily increased for the first 30 turns or so, and then leveled off. A few calculations showed that they started with 4000M people on each homeworld, and then grew to 4800M people on each homeworld over those 30 turns (approx.). I don't know if they started off with facility slots full or not; I kinda hope so...

If you recently installed a patch that could be it, as the Advanced storage techniques don't affect planets that hold 4 facilities or less. The SectType.txt I believe uses different numbers for each sector than in previous patches. So when you installed the patch you affectively changed the size of the planet from a medium to a small.

That's my theory and I'm stickin' to it.

I think they did.
