How to mod the homeworld starting facilities?

Geo:
It's always been hard-coded.

Capnq:
That is exactly what my post says. It does not say that a HW gets 1 Organics Farm facility, it says it gets 1 facility with the highest level of organics generetion.

Right Fyron. I wasn't saying it had changed. I was saying you were wrong. Only it turns out you were right and I was wrong. Which is no big suprise. I am wrong quite often.

Capnq is right. Changing abilities of the facilities can change the way your original homeworlds are setup at game start. I've given Space Yards the resupply ability in my personal mod and this results in TWO Space Yards on every homeworld at game start. Which is cool. It gives homeworlds a special value and a unique level of power in the game.

I don't think the Homeworld entries in ConstructionFacilities.txt are useless, though. I think the homeworld entries will be used as the game progresses. Most everyone has the SAME setup for every planet type in every AI state. But if you've got alterations for different AI states to make different configurations I think they will get used.

Does this mean that if you give the Cultural Center in Proprtions the Spaceyard ability, you'll have an even more insane homeworld?

I thought the Cultural centers had a repair ability of 1 slot but PvK took it out?

[Fyron]

The repair ability is not looked at for HW facilites. Only the build rate abilities are.

Yes. Specially you'll have a homeworld with upwards of 30 functional spaceyards (i.e. really really larger build rate)
