Newbie Question: System Facilities Cumulative?

[Chronon]

Are the bonuses for System Robotoid Factory and System Radioactives Collider cumulative? In other words, do I get a 60% system-wide bonus on radioactives production with these two facilities(30% from each one)? Does the same hold true for the other resource specific system facilities (I forget what they're called, the ones for organics and minerals)?

Thanks for your help!

No. The highest system facility will stack with the highest local sector facility, but that's all.

Value / conditions improvement will stack for multiple local facilities, but not multiple system-wide facilities. You get the highest system-wide plus the stack of all your locals.

And most local facilities don't stack either. The exception is Climate Control Facilitiy and Value Improvement Plant. These really do work faster if you have mor ethan one on the planet.

SJ and Baron M, thanks for the info on facilities.

What do you do in a max technology game (with no intel allowed) with those planets that have no resource production Category over 100%? I usually use them for intel or research, but in this case there is no point in that strategy. Should I just stack them with value improvement plants and wait until they are usable for resource extraction?

Build Monoliths.

ALWAYS build monoliths, they are much much better IMHO. But they take longer, i usually go for the best producing resource and then slowly convert over to monoliths. Also, you can build a system robotoid and a sector robotoid and, according to this thread, they will stack to give your production fatty boosts on that planet.

Basically, 5, 20 planet systems can support an enourmous fleet if you design it right and keep your costs low, plus it's easy to defend that right?
