Default Re: Players wanted for PBW PvK Proportions Game #1

PvK,

Love the mod. It's exactly what I always wanted. It does seem that it takes a while to "get going" but I find that acceptable. I started a solitaire game again - first one in a year - with it, and it's definitely got that realistic and epic feel.

I have one question: there are a number of facilities that don't seem to be used in the PBW game. For example, in my solitaire game, it seems perfectly reasonable to me to build agro settlements, then agro colonies, eventaully minor cities on colony worlds. But in the PBW game, there are colonies with research centers and that's it. I guess this makes sense, as you could have the distant Ceti Alpha VI research outpost, a bunch of isolated scientists...and the same goes for mining facilties without communities to provide infrastructure...but then is there any reason to build agro settlements/communities/etc...aside from RP purposes?

thanks...still trying to figure it all out! Love the mod...

Alarik

Ps: I thought I read somewhere that in Proportions, fighters could not move strategically, but that's not the case, right?
