Classes are getting thick now, so I won't be doing anything major for a while.

Mid august I'm totally done, and will have some of that legendary free time once again.

I was going for MBA till I put my back out and the meds made it so I could not think right, I could read the same line 4X and still not understand it..

*Carefully bumps the thread, and tells SJ how great his mod is*

A small bug report so that my post will not be *completely* useless (not that this is an world-shattering problem):
The description for the Microwave Power Relay components is wrong, as it is the one for remote mining (while Microwave Power Relay use the Generate point ability).

Things I like so far, you can have more than 1 space yard on planet, build times look to be more realistic.
What I do not like, is the build time for ring world componets etc with space yard ships, may be right time wise but in a game you will never build one

Bug: supply componet 3,4 and 5 all have the same number but abilitys do change

Speaking of Ringworlds/Sphereworlds: choosing the wrong colony tech can have other consequences besides being very annoying for the game. Ringworlds/Sphereworlds are of your colony type and atmosphere, so a player picking Gas as his colony type, and then choosing Ice Natives, would have the very nice surprise of seeing an uncolonisable Ringworld. *Gloats at the thought*

SJ has written in the todo list that he intends to reduce the size of Stellar Manipulation components, so it should make these Ringworlds/Sphereworlds a bit more affordable (and so more Emperors will be able to satisfy their Imperial Egos).
