Immigration?

Depends on your species. Humans would probably keep having sex, and just kill each other to stay under the quota.

Just kidding. More accurately, humans would probably overpopulate and erode their own planet's ability to support life until it was too late.

Well, the AI Minister that manage the Population, is the only that time in time I use to avoid the micromanagement.

Birth Control. Ever heard about The Pill ?

No need to outlaw sex, Europe population would be shrinking due to less than 2 births per woman if not for imigration.

But is there a way to automate the immigration process? I mean, it gets tedious to build a transport, ferry a cargo load of people to an almost empty planet, then go back to the full planet and start the process over again. Can't we simplify this?

The next patch may help this:

Version 1.85:
5. Fixed - Changed Population Transport minister so that it takes population
to lowest populated planet.

Then all you need is to build Transports and let the minister do the work.

yeah, not having to shuffle population, at least for that, is gonna cut the MM. not that MM, the other MM!

but will it recognize breather differences?

i'd be willing to bet it will take the atmosphere into account (or mixing pops)... otherwise it's sort of a half-assed addition, right?
