A crazy modding idea

[Taera]

Make research and intilligence facilities much more potent but make it only "one per planet".

[narf poit chez BOOM]

that's not so crazy.

The only way to make a facility one per planet is to add in some SY ability. There is no one per planet restriction like there is a one per vehicle restriction for components.

Hmmm... sounds like another tweak to add to the SEV request file.

So, until then... what if you could make a component have an SY capacity, but with no print-out line for it (i.e. it doesn't specifically tell you it's a SY), and an impossibly high resource requirement to make sure you can't build ships with it?

or give it a 10/10/10 construction - "can build prototypes" ability? could make for interesting management decisions - "to build or to research"

Problem is, that would kill all further production of any type on the planet, including facilities and units.
