Space Food Empires!

It sounds fascinating, with a steady proportional growth along with interesting construction rates also implying a welcomed and steady growth that may yield advantages to some Cultures and disadvantages to others.

I look forward to following its progress and actually playing your new mod - you have put much thought into this and it does sound fascinating.

Overall, the effect I'm going for is to make ships more substantial. It will take longer to build them and a higher percentage of resources to maintain them. This puts more of an emphasis on placement and use of ships, unlike many stock games where building ships is like building fighters. Overall fleet sizes might be smaller, but individual ships become more important

This is refreshing to see.
It is my belief - there are many Players that do not want to move several hundred Ships and maintain hundreds of Planets just to afford this. The game, to some - becomes a burden and more like a second job {when only in its mid game} and they may lose interest.

I look forward to your style

Looks great, Cap'n K, I can't wait to sink my teeth into this! (/me ducks flying vegetables)

This will be a useful mod for those extra-long SEIV binges during which I sometimes forget to eat. It's got a nifty reminder built right in!

I want it finished, and I want it finished yesterday!

The religious trait can be the "Vegan" trait.

Hey Narf, how about this: #3. "You're such a Fruit."

Or...

"An apple a day keeps the vegatables at bay."

"We come to preserve you."

Have any of you ever seen the famous "Mona Lisa Fruit Bowl"?

Speaking of, are you ready for some Fruit Ball?

"Yamses, let my Pickles go!"

"Carefull, he has a banana in his pocket and he dosen't look happy to see you!"

You should create one evil super-powerful race that's against everyone (sort of like the Antarans in MoO2). They could be the only non-organic race, like sentient cybernetic food processors.

"Captain, long range sensors are detecing a massive fleet of incoming Cuisinart and Salad Shooter class ships!"

"On screen.... What the hell is that thing?"

"It looks like a... like a giant blender, captain..."

"Order the retreat! Run away!"

Bunnies. Giant, blood-thirsty, warmongering, fluffy, bunnies.

Or the blender. LOL!
