a facility which can make more place on a planet for population...a facility like Habitations or sometihng else which raise up the population capacity of the planet...
Do you think it is possible to mod this?
And do you think it will be a good facility?

Thanks.

Yes, this is another fairly simple feature that has been requested for ages. I've been requesting an 'Arcology' facility for emergency housing (like when a planet destruction event pops up and you have one year to find new homes for thousands of population points) on a regular basis for some time. As with everything else, popularity seems to rule. If many people sent emails requesting this feature it would get done.

Since I've seen sphereworlds modded to have more than 100 billion population (100 thousand million) I presume that a double word is already used to track population of planets. As long as an Arcology only adds 100/200/300 million or so space I don't think you'd overflow the game's ability to track it.
