Converting Domed into No-dome
Quick questions about colonization:
Is there a way to convert a domed planet into a no-dome planet. Even after changing atmosphere, the dome remains.
How do you trade population with another empire other than trading transports?

Re: Converting Domed into No-dome
If all the population matches the atmosphere type, it should be a no-dome planet. Make sure you don't have mixed populations.
To get other races:
Trade transports
Steal transports or colonizers
Conquer them
Take over planets with troops or Intel

How? and why? It must have alien population on it.
You have to make sure that the population on the planet matches the atmosphere type. Atmosphere conVersion always makes the planet into your home atmosphere type.

Re: Converting Domed into No-dome
I thought it made it into the atmosphere breathed by the majority of the population...

Nope. What it should do is give you a choice of atmospheres to convert to. But it doesn't, it makes it the native type for the empire.

I once was the Xi-Chung Hive (Methane breathers), and I got the Fazrah (oxygen) to surrender. One of their planets - filled with Fazrahians - had a Hydrogen Atmosphere. I built an Atmospheric Converter III there, and in 2 years - oxygen planet.
Of course, unless there's an expensive/unique facility on a planet, I usually don't bother with atmospheric converters. I evacuate the planet, scrap all facilities, and abandon the planet. Then, I have a Ship with a Tectonic Bomb, Mass Condenser (whatever you call the Asteroid -> planet things), and a repair bay ready. Destroy the planet, then generate a new one - If you don't like it, wait a turn for the components to repair, then destroy it & generate one again - Wash, rinse, and repeat

Re: Converting Domed into No-dome
It is not that I am wrong, it is that I have out-dated information.
It seems as if SE4 is now converting atmospheres to that breathed by the dominant race on the planet. When did this change take place?
