I was going to post this in the Production based vs. Resource Based Games thread, but decided it needed a thread of its own.

Should the number of facilities allowed be limited on a planet with a domed colony. I understand the population limit, but I would think that at least some facilities, such as mining facilities would be pretty much out in the elements, as it were. This would really make sense if the population required for operation was wired in and there was a provision for automated facilities that required much less population to operate.

Maybe the solution is to have technology that could be researched that would allow creation of remotely operated automated facilities that could be placed even when the domed facility limit was reached, but not if the planet's undomed facility limit was reached.

Thoughts?
