Summary0005563: Side Effect Related To New Plasma Starships
DescriptionI love the new Plasma Starships, but wanted to point out they're currently causing a slightly annoying side effect - when they fire on my home command station (shielded by default), it damages all the little unique buildings you start with (settlements / cryo pods, the ones you can't ever rebuild). This makes perfect sense, but it has a side effect of increasing micromanagement, because engineers won't ever automatically repair those structures, because their cost per second is too high. Same with manufactories. So I tend to manually click to repair each of these after any attack with a siege starship that hit my home shield, or temporarily up the "per second cost" that can be auto-repaired.

Can we make the cost per second to repair these low enough that they'll typically be automatically repaired? Also, same with manufactories? I don't mind if they repair slower, I just want it to happen automatically without telling my engineers to automatically repair all the really expensive stuff (and cripple my economy).

Better yet, have a list of "irreplacible, critical" structures that are exempt from the cost per second rules.

The home command station, command stations in general, the manufactories, advanced factories, the starting cities, and the cryo-pods should all be added to that list, at the very least.

I don't think this issue exists in AI War 8.000, it can probably be closed.
