Petition for Multiple Shipyards: MM take note...
I have seen in many Posts that many players want multiple shipyards on a planet to contribute their building ability. Or they would like to be able to build both facilities and ships at the same time (and maybe units as well)
Additionally, I have seen many refrences that MM does NOT want to implement this.
The easiest way to implement this would be to add the "Divide points equally" function that already exists in reaserch/intelligence, and to limit one shipyard per Domed colony and one shipyard per 1M, 2M, etc. population for habitable coloies (perhaps this value can be in the settings.txt). If you currently have more than allowed, you lose the production from those unsupported shipyards. You could always reduce the impact of this change by reducing the productivity of shipyards in general.
If you agree with me that multiple shipyards should be possible and/or building multiple facs/ships/units should be possible (even if you don't agree with me how it should work) then please reply to this stating your agreement. Hopefully with enough show of support, MM will implement this much wanted feature.
Thank you... And thank you MM, as I know you are one of the few game designers that would actually take this request into consideration.
