Default No movement required for Bases

Do you think MM should change bases so they don't need "remaining movement" for stellar manipulation componets? (so they could use them!) yes/no

I think that the stellar manip components should have an ability -"requires remaining movement".

Then you can turn the Base-StellarManip on and off for different types of SM.

More modding options will never hurt.

That would be even better, but I would settle for MM to simply change it so bases can use Warp point open/closers and planet/star busters (Oh, you think you've captured my system... but If I can't have it then nobody will. Activate the Doomsday protocol!)

Then how the heck do you make a ringworld? The ringworld generator is too huge to put on anything but a base, and the base can't have movement points, how does that work anyways?

You build ship based shipyards, move to a star and build the bases with ringworlds components there onsite.

And, obviously, the Ringworld/Sphereworld creator component doesn't require remaining movement. Don't know why it's treated differently than other SM components...
