Also, maybe it would be better to rename 'Planetary Supercomputer' to 'Planetary Supercomputer Network'
Maybe that fits the explanation better?

Just a small mistake needs correcting in Research Center, I missed the 'do' in the last line, should be:
Well equipped laboratories where scientists can work and learn, as well as experiment with new ideas and technology. While much research must still be done ‘in the field’ these labs provide an ideal base for scientists to do their daily jobs.

Core Mining Facility:
A large mining facility deep within the planet. These mines use selectively permeable force fields to filter the molten materials near the center of the planet and remove anything of value, while the unwanted material is left behind. The materials can then be brought to the surface for processing.
Galactic Cyber Network:
A huge network connecting every corner of the galaxy, and everything in between. This network provides the ability to communicate, share data and even play games with anyone in the galaxy. Thanks to this it is now even easier for scientists to share ideas and work together, no matter how far apart they are.
Biospheres:
What exactly are these, my idea is of like a large glass dome over an area, but this seems a bit extreem, and the planetary one would be like a glass dome round the whole planet...it doesnt have to be glass, but a clear material at least...or maybe force fields?
Any other ideas?
Cloning Medical Center:
A facility that uses stem cells to clone and repair human organs and tissues for use in transplants and other life saving operations. These centers increase the life expectancy of a planets population, and as a result increase the population growth rate.
Holo Simulator Center:
So these are like hologram simulators? Using force feilds and hollograms to create artificial scenes. How does this help population growth though? Maybe for use in displaying results of medical scans and close up details of whats happening during operations, or for training doctors to do operations? Or something else?
Pleasure Dome:
Again, how would this increase population?
BTW I wont be around for a few days, but should be back Friday some time. So wont be posting for the next few days

Here is the description from DQ:E for habitats. "This is the main building type that allows population growth depending on planet limitation. New technology in buildings construction gives the possibility to extend habitat area on the vertical axis, thus permitting extra population." Now biospheres are not really a dome or other geometrical construction, but more a concept of habitable area. For example, currently we cannot live under water, but some "biospheres" could allow living in ocean cities. I hope you got my idea.

These type of buildings don't increase directly population growth. They do influence on people morale and quality of life, thus indirectly influence growth rate.

About biospheres, because I am still a bit confused.
If they allow you to live under water, I still think this would need some kind of solid construction though, because how would you keep the water out?
Also, how would the planetary biosphere work?
I get sort of the idea on the surface, but then that seems more like terraforming, if it improves the areas climate etc...
The biggest problem is how can you build a biosphere?

Here you have description for biospheres in MOO2: "Biospheres allow colonies to better control the environmental conditions under which they live, allowing the population to use the less tolerable areas of a planet. This increase the maximum population a planet can hold."
It totally describes what biospheres are. We just have 4 versions of them.

Ok, all the descriptions so far have a bit of an idea of how it may work, where thats more just a description of what it is for...
And thats the hard part, thinking of how an imaginary technology can work...
Anyway, on the tech tree it comes after Astro constructions, SO...biospheres could be created by an orbital system that controls the area below.
So, basicaly it could be a satalite that monitors the area below itself and that creates a force field around a set area below it self. This force field works much like a green house, and can be used to change the amount of the suns energy entering the sphere, and how much can exit also. It also controls how gasses from the atmosphere enter and exit the sphere, and in doing so can keep oxygen at high altitudes so people can live in high mountains etc.
Small biosphere can be a single satalite controling a localised area, such as a single mountain. Medium can be a small network of satalites, used for controling a whole mountain region. Large is larger network, that links several mountain regions over a large area, maybe an entire continent.
Planetary links every mountain region, and other uninhabitable areas on the whole planet.
I will try and write this up into a description soon.

Actually you don't have to write the description of how it might work for all buildings. If you find it difficult just a description of what this building is for would be quite enough.
