Summary0016566: Building on Terraformed Tiles
DescriptionCurrently, building roll-over text include the type of terrain a building is placed on, but (to my knowledge) this has no effect. If players read the descriptions (I haven't seen any other messages to indicate anyone has really noticed) they might be lead to believe that the underlying terrain makes a difference (i.e., I must put my buildings on my terraformed terrain).

I would suggest either removing this from the the roll-over text -or- having the underlying hex still affect the world and be placeable.
This would mean that the shifting of terraformed terrain would cease.
That the scrubbing abilities of the tile would combine with the pollution scrubbing of the building (e.g., the Fenyn would then avoid hazmats completely and place all tiles on terraformed tiles).
That terraforming would be allowed on buildings, and replace the underlying terrain (with no change in the visible graphic).
It would also fix the strange cases where terraformed tiles are not shifted but are destroyed.
TagsNo tags attached.

-- Please have terraforming be possible on tiles that have a building on top of them, so long as the building belongs to the race doing the terraforming.
--- Additionally, please remove the logic that tries to move terraformed tiles somewhere else when a building is placed on top of them.

For 0.816:

* Removed the rule where you can't place terraforming on a tile with a building that doesn't draw the underlying tile. Added a rule where it blocks terraforming a tile with a building from a different race.

* Removed the rule where placing a building on a terraformed tile moves the terraforming to a nearby tile.

Thanks :)
