New Facility Idea- What's your opinion ?

"sure you get bonuses for having large population, but these bonus seem (to me) far and few between."

Like most things, this can be modded; it's in settings.txt. You get a bonus roughly every billion people you have, unmodded. I know suicide junkie has done things that make those much finer grained.

Don't know it too much BTW. At 4000 pop, you get a 40% production bonus. At 8000 (full huge world) you get an 80% bonus. This is *on top* of the bonuses for your race and for the happyness bonus (which is another 20% max). It also applies to both shipyard and resource facilities.

EDIT: more population also = more militia, which makes your worlds harder to invade, and more hitpoints to kill off before the planet is killed off.
