Default Re: Some comments on Proportions Mod

Actually, the major reason I want to double population growth and reduce pop. mass is to reduce the late game micromanagement. In standard Proportions I had to shuffle population to my first colony during whole game. Population transports made up 90% of my navy. After making these changes I actually managed to fill first colonies (after many and many turns, but still) and redirect transports to newer colonies.

As to homeworld development, I push very hard to research computers. Once I have robotoid factory II and central computer center II, I scrap resuply depot and spaceport and build these facilities. Later on I also build system-wide facilities in the home system ASAP. I also like to play religues because of nature shrine. 1-3% per year improve in home world values goes long way to fortify your economy ! I also tried to build value improvement plants on homeworld, but since you have only two available slots still keeps nature shrine very important.
