Upgrade to Temporal Space Yard?

The question is:
Is this an intended limitation of the TSY, to prevent abuse, or is it a bug that can be corrected by modding?
If it is a bug we should insist that it is corrected in the Stock data files.

But if you did that, you'd be able to put as many temporal spaceyards on one planet as you liked, with stacking construction rates!

Personally, I think it's good that they have to build the temporal yard from scratch. They'll make up for the delay with a vengeance once they get them built.

Also, if you want to put them in the same family you have to adjust the numerals of the temporal shipyard to 4, 5, and 6. Facilities upgrade to the highest numbered component in a family.

Note that this is different than components, which uses the family component that is lowest in the components.txt file (eg. normal and phased shields).

TSY being in a different family is an intentional extra cost to building TSYs. If it was a bug, MM would have fixed it years ago, as it only takes at most 2 minutes to change.
