How many Facilities....

Spyder · #1 February 14th, 2001, 05:34 PM

....on each size of planet?

Tiny == ??
Small == ??
Medium == 12 ?
Large == 20 ?
Huge == 30 ?

Boring day here at work today...sorry

I believe on a domed planet (race not able to breath the planets atmosphere) the numbers are:
tiny - 1
small - 2
med - 3
large - 4
huge - 5

on a breathable atmosphere planet:
tiny - 5
small - 10
med - 15
large - 20
huge - 25

hope it helps

hmmm....maybe races are different...?

I specifically remember that Medium planets let me build 12 facilities, Huge planets let me build 30.....??

Spyder, you have chosen advanced storage which add 20% to max number of facilies, thus mediums 10*1.2=12, large 15*1.2=18, huge 25*1.2=30.

Cool...I had no idea

that 20% from advanced storage also applies to population limit and storage of cargo.

Thanks for the info!

I had no idea that Advanced Storage affected the number of facilities on a planet.

Good info to have for the TG contest!

Advanced Storage is a HUGE plus in any game, and is one of 4 advanced traits that are absolutely essential to do well in the TG contest.

Not only do you effectively get 20% more out of every planet, but the higher population limit ensures you'll keep that top constr/prod bonus for your starting HW even while colonizing other planets.

I'm thinking they should raise the cost to 1500 at least.
