Artificial planets

Postby Biges » Wed May 30, 2007 9:52 am

Hi!

Is there a way how to prevent building of artificial planets?
An editor maybe?
Thanks

Btw, I don't want this to became a discussion whatever it is nonsense to create a planet from a gas giant. (And how much it would *really* cost.)

I can't recall that the AI ever build an artificial planet. When you play against humans you should just ban the tech...actually it is already rarely researched in our online games.

On a side note is it possible to mod things to make artificial planets more "interesting"?

Of course, you can make the tech cheaper, increase number of asteroids and stuff....

One of the main reason it is rarely chosen is that the whole construction path is unattractive after robo miners (no good weapons, insignificant econ techs)...the DC mod for example changed this aspect.

when I say "more interesting" I meant "more annoying to use".

IE: have it generate a random planet instead of a barren world with mediocre minerals.
