Default Re: Freighter Network

A freighter must yield a large amount of (non-organic) resources when scrapped. This requires either an insanely high scrap return at the spaceport (not desirable) or a high (non-organic) construction cost, so freighters cost a lot to build. Freighters are also supposed to be built quickly at a Launch Pad, so the Launch Pad must either have a high (non-organic) construction rate or build at no cost in the appropriate resource. A construction rate of 1/2000/1 satisfies neither of those two requirements.
