1) Lots of mods around. Should play stock, stock is rich for about 10 games. Then you'll probably get bored of it. I'm playing Adamant mod, its pretty good.

Perhaps I'm not clear. In Dom2 there are some mods (the "Zen's balance bods") thet are widely accepted and almost standard. Are there "alost standard" nods for SEIVG too?

2) Yes here's what you do. Click upgrade. Then in the name put "II" or "III" or the appropriate roman numeral. Click create. Then click on the old ship, and click obsolete. That is what I do.

This is like what I do. I thought there was an automatic way.

3) Colony type is largely meaningless. You should be able to change it if you really need to. But a "mining colony" only produces minerals if there's mineral extractors, and doesn't give you any kind of in game effect if you call it a "mining colony" or "kick-*** super-duper hole-digging place"

I know it is only useful as organizing purpose, but I tought there was a way to change is after it has been given. To differently organize changed purpose planets.
