SmokaDustbowl posted:2 more bases and I'm solid for the whole game. You can stop making bases after a certain number of them and still win?  Never realized that, but probably Civ 1 spoiled me into thinking that I should have just carpeted the whole map of cities and railroads.

last person who reported moving the save along was smoka (rip, again), so if it's not you it's either sagebrush or luigi30

at this point i think everyone still has one worker per base (unless there's a faction that starts with two or gets extras) and if you're working on secret projects instead of like, rovers or colony pods, lol

i dunno, drones can become kinda unpleasant for zakharov in the mid-long term. human genome project helps with that. of course the only critical secret project for the university is still the hunter seeker algorithm but everyone knows that man, now that i think about it i'd forgotten how much fun the espionage game can be in smax. which is weird because it's usually something i never really focus on in other games including the rest of the civ series

sure but at this stage in the game, everyone's got level 1 bases (unless someone starts with a level 2?) and more workers to consume more resource tiles helps build speeders or colony pods or w/e

you're playing as the hive! the university is the last faction you want to see nuked/nerve gassed since they're doing all your research! god have you people even played this game before it's murder the believers first (because gently caress godwinson and anyway she's probably declared war before you did), then start spying on the university, then start murdering all those other idiots. it's not orbital spaceflight people! (also virtual world isn't nearly as useful since you can always build holo-theaters on a per-base basis while the genome project doesn't have any base improvement counterpart)

If anyone has a nutrient bonus they should have at least 2 pop in their starting bases. e: also didn't someone find a unity chopper?

they didn't fill them up with needlejets or planetbusters, though. that's why they lost the war

I don’t remember if you could do that or not.

could the behavior be different on different patch versions, or between smac and smax

come to think of it there's a good chance that you can do it with the right-click menu but not the keyboard shortcut (like with paradrops in range of aerospace complexes)
