Are Nature shrines stackable?
 

I was setting up a "religious colony" and the game didn't give me a warning about "similar system ability". Does this mean that they stack???

I would guess not. The description says only one per system but it should give you a warning if one is complete.

Just for the overlapping ability: Pop. growth; one Gest. Vats III increases pop. by 3%, Med. Lab III by 1%, if you build both, this should result in 3% pop. growth -from the highest modifier; but the Med. Lab has more functions: +happiness, +plague prevention.

Some system facilities have positive effects on happiness but the other ability might be more important, e.g. if you have a Temporal Vacation Service and try to build a Fate Shrine just to decrease the chance of bad events (I don't know good examples at the moment) then you'll get a warning about the similar facilities in the system, just because of the overlapping happiness modifier.

And just a side note, I'm pretty sure there is NOT a limit to the number of productive Value Improvement Plants you can have (at least that's what it was back around v.1.10).<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

This is still correct for Value Improvement plants but not for Nature Shrines. I guess the stacking of the Value Improvement plants is not wanted, an unknown feature...
