Why bother with ringworlds if you can have sphereworlds? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Because ringworld picture is so much better looking then sphereworld (it sucks http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif ) And since at this stage you don't really care about winning anymore, aesthetics is the only criteria that matters http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon6.gif

So switch the images around. It will do nothing to hinder MP games (as long as you just change the BMPs, not the data files). http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Because it takes far less resources to build. After i have those ringworlds, they will produce enough resources to allow me to build sphereworlds. But for now, i'll stick with ringworlds until i have so much resources, i'll drown in them http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

I'm actually working on that: every system has a system shield, all asteroid fields are in the process of being converted to planets ( 6 planet creators flying around ), ringworlds are being constructed (only 4-5 at a time because of the cost) and athmospheric converters (also only 3 systems at a time are converted because of the resource drain)

Anyway, i don't think i will complete everything because i think the AI will soon turn on me.
Luckily because of trade, they will loose a lot of trade too when they go at war with me http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
