TG contest and system facilities bug ?

[Tomgs]

Well it says right on the Time shrine and the SRF that there can be only one with this effect per system. Since the effects are the same they should not stack. The only advantage the time shrines have is that they are a lot lower on a tech tree so you can get them long before you get the SRF's. I usually build Time Shrines first then scrap them when I have built the SRF's.

The planet facilities and the system facilities are designed to stack so that is no problem. the only things that shouldn't stack are two planet facilities on the same planet (this works now) or two system facilities in the same system (this is bugged). As long as the bugged part isn't done the contest should be fine. And as you say its real easy to catch.

Kimball The system and planet facilities do stack but its hard to see the effects since the system facility additions aren't shown on any one planet. A system facility adds to the total amount in the system and that effect shows up in the total in the Empire, Intell, or Research screen but doesn't show any increase on any specific planet so it looks like there is no effect unless you know what the total should be and add in the system facilities effects.
