Oh, and one other little side discovery:

The line in setting.txt for minimum resource production of each type.

You only get that as resource income if you have no facilities of that kind producing. I set it to 200,000 to fund the openers from the start, but I didn't realize I had to scrap all the min, org, and rad facilities to get that income.

Kinda stupid.

I wonder if there would be any uses for this...taking out all resource facilities and giving everyone a baseline of resources.

yeah, SJ uses it in the pirates and nomads mod. its sort of a wellfare stippend until you build or conquer a colony with resource production.

and you are not supposed to set up any colonies until you are darn sure they will more than off-set your free stippend.

Yep... Some things you can do without giving up your welfare check:
- remote mining.
- building resource extractors in a system without a spaceport.
- negative maintenance income.
