A small biodome on my homeworld went from 16 to 18.

Oh and also, take 8s and up, dont forget terraforming and biodomes will improve the number of people and possibly resources.


Yeah, I just edited my last post saying much the same

And I only want large planets, not huge

And the planetary biodome takes it up by 5

Same here, hope my col ships all arrive tonight, so I can colonise and leave the population to grow overnight...

I will build lots more col ships eitherway, and send them out when I find decent planets...

You can move people from one planet to another by draging on the colony list page. You can change assignments by draging them from one to another, but if you try and drag from one planet to another it just says you need freighters. So, if we had them you could move your population. That should be useful in future, for getting your colonies off to a good start...

I can move guys within systems. I have 3 planets in one system, so they can be moved from one to another.

Yeah, I have 2 planets in the same star and it worked...but not in my home system, so it wont help right now...but will later I guess...


About biospheres, they add loads to population. I have 22 already. and should have 27 next turn

But be careful, build them in the right order, if you build large first for example you cant build small and medium, so your final max will be lower than if you build small > average > large >lanetary...its probably a bug I think...

Well it makes sense if you think about it.

Unless you mean that by building a planetary you get only +5 and not +(all the others combined and +5)

In that case, its a bug.

Or just plain silly.

If i try hard enough and the server doesnt go offline like it did last night, i can finish off the tech tree tonight

Then move my guys around to help the 2 planets in my system.

What I mean is this:

Small = +2
Medium = +3
Large = + 4
Planetary = +5

So, if you have 16 population to start, then build small you have 18. If you then build Medium you will have 21.

But, if you build Medium first, the small option is gone from the list, and never comes back. So you have only 19 in total...

So, make sure you build in order At least till it is fixed...

Heh, I already had them But built them in wrong order, I only have 23 max population...but thats good enough

BTW, I have everything on production on my home world, thats 23 people...and am making 355 production each turn

I plan to build quite a bit overnight...already have my first battleship as my flagship, and maybe have a second tomorrow. That will be 2 fleets, Aries and Taurus done

Cool, I still have a ways to go, but have everything I need

Anyway, once its done, your buildings are just a waste of money...we need a way to demolish them I think...
