...ok...A "system" to me has always been a "Star System"...with many planets....however..in SEIV I find that a "system" is a single planet. So if I build a "Urban Pacification" structure on 1 planet...doest that mean it's good for 1 planet or the whole star system with all colonized planets within?. The manual and in-game instructions are not clear to me on this point. Please advise...gotta keep my fodder happy~~ thanks much.

No, a planet is a planet. A system is indeed the whole star system. A sector is one square in the system. Urban Pacification Centers affect all of your planets in the entire system.

A system is a star system. Not a planet. A system-wide facility (IE your Urban Pacification Centre) will affect the whole system.

Edit: Darn. 1 second slower than Fyron. Rats.

Ok same topic..but why does it say that when a "ship enters a system with a refuel depot it is automagically resupplied"...but I find I have to actually drop by the planet itself with the depot?

I don't know where you got that, but the word system in that phrase should be sector.
