Default Re: Question and Suggestion about Limited Resources

As the demo stands now, I monitor my planets' production, etc. When a planet gets very low on minerals, I start scrapping a few miners and building int or research facilities (or whetever else is needed). Alos consider that in the long run its sometimes better to build only a few miners, even on a mineral rich planet, so as to not deplete so soon, and to control the production of materials to the empire reserves. No need to max out a "rich" planet with mining facilities.

BTW, even with finite resources on, my planets seem to keep producing resources anyway. Is the finite resources working in he demo?

Stars! would leave behind resources after a battle that would fade over time. I can see some value in this if you play with finite resources (like Stars! is), but none if resources are limitless.
