This is also true wneh building or expanding Settlements, Cities and Metroploitan Mega cities you need FOOD for you populations and large Cities need LARGE POPULATIONS TO EXPAND if they are to upgrade in a speedy way

and the planetary urban gowth will depend on your FOOD reserves

Actually GLV. When Playing AIC with the Starliner option ON…
Name := SO* (Found in Racial Traits menu, please DISABLE if Starliner ON is desired)

Your Empires Growth and success depends on the total amount of STAR LINERS you have migrating your population from the Home World or other High Pop Colonies - to the fledgling Colonies and/or Worlds with Urban expansion projects you want commenced. ( Set Fleet orders and repeat recommended)

Moreover, your total STAR LINER numbers depend on your Empires Organics operations. With the above AIC option, “The growth of your empire does depend on your total available food reserves”

With Starliner Option OFF
(Defalted; otherwise, please re-enabled if desired)
Name := SO*
With *HP* above, this is a Standard Starting Option: Resulting in a more robust game that requires LESS Micro Management and logistics. Your game will be less dependent on Star Liners with this option.

This allows for a Civilizations advance towards organized Immigration doctrines. With this, Players are now able to build Debarkation Depots that can be tied together with your Empires Supply Hubs. Easily constructed, this will increase all Population migrations automatically and indiscriminately to all Colonized Planets in that System the Depot was constructed. The need and effort for Star Liners as Population transports are vastly diminished with this option enabled.
