Heck, if you improve from 7M resource production to 50M, don't give all this credit to the map. I'd say the map will help with your upper limit, the 7x increase is all you.

Yeah, you're probably right. at 150% rate instead of 200%, I'd lose 2 turns for each planet just building the space yards. Other than that though it'd mainly affect my ringworld building I think. Still, those two turns early lose me over 10M points alone at the end, and that's just a minimum effect. The ringworld situation would be even worse, for a number of reasons.
Now if you could work on multiple things in the same turn it'd REALLY hurt, but as it stands, I lost a lot of extra construction time building facilities on my planets under emergency build. The change to facility construction wouldn't be affected. I'd just have to up my construction rate 6 points to compensate, so it wouldn't be that bad. (Give yourself a gold star (or a ringworld if it makes you happier, heh) if you can figure out what rate I set my const. at now from that info.
