Really? So if you build more than one 'Value Improvement Plant', you get a +3 then +6 then +9% bonus (respectively for the highest tech 'VIP').

I think I heard something about it before, but never actually tested it. . . :-p

I haven't tested this personally, but I've also read that some of the people in the TwinGalaxies contest have used this feature, so I'm willing to believe that it works.

Re: Stacking
 

It is definitely possible to stack multiple Value Improvement Plants. Also, RingWorlds start out at 150% minerals, 150% organics and 150% radioactives. But that isn't the max! You can build VIP's on RW's and further improve them to 250%,250%,250%.

Drake posted his turn 150 save game. ALL of his ringworlds had been improved to 250,250,250.

System bonus stacking is off limits in our contest but because of a bug you can still make it work in other games (you probably should talk to your opponents in PBeM games before doing it to avoid hurt feelings over using a cheat though). In single-player games the way to use the bug where you get system-wide bonus effects to stack is to build them on different worlds. This won't work after the next patch so enjoy it while you can.

Re: Stacking
 

Can you stack a robotoid factory(planet) and also have a mineral scanner facility on a planet and get both benefits.

Robotoid give 30% mineral production increase (planet)

Mineral Scanner gives 30% mineral production increase (planet)

Thanks
