In my latest Proportions game I was buildind about 20 Megapolises (sp.?) at one time. Before I figure out what is going on, I was out of any organic or radioactive speck in my most galactically advanced civilization. It was the worst ever case of petrolium crisis I ever witnessed (yes, I was alredy here in 70ies, albeit as a small child) !

Re: One who wishes to know
Geoschmo,
No need to look up the formula for medium tech cost - that one worked. Thanks a bunch!
One other question - do ANY units cost maintenance?

Nope sir. And that is probably their biggest plus, if you ask me.

Great Googaly Moogaly!!! Every planet I have will always have something going in the build queue (barring lack of resources, of course)....

Re: One who wishes to know
Ok maybe this post is not for this specific topic about seekers,but I would like also to know something.
For example I have designed a small weapon platform and build it on a planet,after some turns i aquire better weapons so i design a new weapon platform same size as the old one.
Now to the point why I can not upgrade the old weapon platform with the new one,why must i first jettison cargo and then build the new designed platform instead to upgrade the existing one when have only free cargo place for one platform on that planet?
IMHO
When i can upgrade old ships to new designed ones then should at be also possible for any weapon platforms instead to build tham again

Re: One who wishes to know
Units require no maintenance costs. So, that is a trade-off.

Re: One who wishes to know
Shapeshifter: All I know is the void is littered with my discarded weapon platforms. Seems that it is hard-coded that way.
