Love that not only is there an appropriate Queen song for every perk but some actually have several suitable candidates. This needs to happen.

Just as long as it's faster, as it's currently painfully slow.

I've only found it slow if I'm completely refactoring a huge fleet (or it's endgame where everything is slow). If you're just upgrading gun II to gun III it's pretty reasonable. That said it'll use every yard in a station so you're looking at a 6x increase anyway.

With the way upgrading works now it might actually be quick enough to use the ship designer to counteract an enemies ships instead of just having a general build.

This is from a few pages ago and there were several replies, but I wanted to add something that I didnt see people say...pmchem posted:What's the best way to make it so workers are intelligently distributed and I'm not running negative of any resource? pmchem posted:Can these suckers just automatically find the optimal jobs? pmchem posted:Also it feels like some buildings cause me more problems than value they produce. What buildings should be on every single planet? Generally for building new districts, I build one of whatever type I need the most once I have workers to fill the jobs. That is how you keep your economy balanced in the early game.

Oops, sorry for the double post.alcaras posted:I've actually never used slaves -- was planning on just giving "acquired" pops (Nihil Acq. as first pick likely) Residency. Let me know if it'd be better to enslave. I should really do a test game to wrap my head around slavery, it's just I don't like the finicky species rights, and from experience with Robots, it really sucks when you run out of jobs for your underclass.

AAAAA! Real Muenster posted:You can set Slaves to "Domestic Servitude" which has them generate amenities if they have nothing else to do, which means that slave pops will never be unemployed. You do lose out on the 10% worker output for chattel slavery. Domestic servitude is amazing for charismatic slaves though.

What also sucks about slavery is the other side of that...when you run out of free population to do middle and upper class jobs.

What's the benefit to Slavery as opposed to just keeping new species acquisitions at Residence instead? Is it just the extra 10% production from Chattel Slavery? I feel like Slavery adds a ton of micro / fiddling with Species rights / moving pops around planets. Or maybe I'm not doing it right.

alcaras posted:What's the benefit to Slavery as opposed to just keeping new species acquisitions at Residence instead? +10% output from Chattel Slavery, +5% output from Slave Processing Facility (and reduced political power), +10% output from Slaver Guilds, +10% from having a Governor with Iron Fist, +5 or 10% from Authoritarian or F. Authoritarian ethic. You can also make Thrall Worlds to increase population growth, although I haven't actually tried that yet to say whether its worth it.

I don't see how a number is more informative than WYSIWYG, nor the virtue of making large planets and ecus even better than they are now. :2c:

AAAAA! Real Muenster posted:They really need to do your idea and remove the cap on building count. I want to keep piling them on higher and higher. Make it so I can have more and more people but additional buildings beyond a certain count cost exponentially more because you ran out of space for them. TheDeadlyShoe posted:I don't see how a number is more informative than WYSIWYG, nor the virtue of making large planets and ecus even better than they are now. :2c: The problem with the current WYSIWYG is that it's awkward to quickly S what you've G, especially when scrolling through multiple planets, double especially when you didn't develop them, and triply especially when you start replacing buildings and break the autosort.

I really *really* hope that they will not declare themselves done with post-DLC support with the patch in late Feb. So much work still needs to go into this new economic system. I still want to hear something about Sectors, for one thing.Vengarr posted:A number is always going to be easier to read than manually counting how many pictures of a Foundry there are.

Instead of the building grid just have an icon for the building with a number on top would be so much clearer.

Why would you ever care about the exact number of research labs on a planet though? Generally the decision is "empty building slot --> research lab" and thus you visually want to scan for empty building slots, not 5 vs. 6 research labs. That doesn't matter, does it?

alcaras posted:Why would you ever care about the exact number of research labs on a planet though? Splicer posted:Exactly. If I'm looking at the buildings on my research planet it's probably because I want to quickly see what uniques I have. If I want to know how my amenities are doing I have the net amenities number, and if I want to know if I want to build another research lab I'll look at the unemployment figures. I don't need multiple research lab and holotheatre icons. If I do for some* reason want to know exactly how many research labs I have on a planet (as opposed to just "enough", "not enough", or "too many") then that's more conveniently portrayed by a single research lab building picture with "6" written on it.
