Re: When was the Last time you built a ring world?
I always build one....because I can.

Re: When was the Last time you built a ring world?
I have built many sphere worlds but no ring worlds. Since we can't upgrade a ring world into a sphere world, I don't build until I've got sphere world technology. Don't want to use up the star by building a ring world which isn't as big as a sphere world. ...even though this may not always be the best strategy.

Re: When was the Last time you built a ring world?
I've never built one either. I started to in one PBW game, but it ended before I got the chance to finish it.

Re: When was the Last time you built a ring world?
I have never had a game Last long enough for my sphere worlds to be completely full. It takes forever to build enough facilities to fill them up... or to get the population full.

Re: When was the Last time you built a ring world?
I have three ringworlds in my latest solo proportions game. And the first of them is now less than 200 turns away from completing a cultural centre.
Now if I can just capture the Bobroban and Texrak homeworlds and transport all that population over I could probably knock a few dozen turns off that...
I've built loads of Ringworlds in Proportions and Devnullmod (never in stock, I don't think) and once I built a sphereworld, but I didn't like it- too ugly.
Maybe SE5 needs a picture somewhere showing the surface of the planet you have currently selected. Then us godlike imperial overlords could actually appreciate the inside of those monolithic constructions, instead of only seeing the dull, grey outside.

Re: When was the Last time you built a ring world?
I always end up building ringworlds. I might stop doing it since apparently the computer (i mainly play SP) players don't do it.
So this would keep it more fair IMO.
But it's fun to build one.
Building more is even funier
