How do you quickly build warp modules?

You can build them faster by getting Temporal Space Yards 3.

Heck. Even Temporal Space Yards 1 is better than normal Space Yards 3.

Could it be possible that you build defficient but costly DN hulls in advances, and when you get warp modules you refit these? I suppose there is something else than warp modules which are costly?

You can design ships with other components to use in the retroseries process. Trust me, it is quite possible to retroseries build to WP manipulating ships. Try using other SM comps for lower level steps in the series.

Temporal Space Yards 3, on a population-maxed Sphereworld, with Advanced Storage Techniques (for the extra population), Hardy Industrialists, and +50% Construction Aptitude

(All that does cost 6000 racial points, though...so take a -50% penalty in Physical Strength and a -8% penalty in Political Savvy, and you're all set

)

I'll second that with a quote.

I was under the impression there was no population bonus after ten billion, only a fraction of the maximum available to a sphere world. Is this not so?

And emergency build, don't forget emergency build.

Makes 0 difference on a SW. The highest population bonus is gotten at 10 billion. So, having 77 billion instead of 65 billion (or whatever the numbers are) does not make any difference at all. In fact, it is a waste of population to have more than 10 billion on a SW or RW.
