| Summary | 0002027: Building command centres -too fiddly! | ||||
| Description | Now that command centres can only be build right on top of the colony ship it can be a pain trying to site the centre as far out of the system as possible to aid its defence. With the former mechanic, you could move the centre around, watching it turn red when too far out. Now you have to move the colony ship, select the center to see what colour it is, then move the colony ship in or out again and repeat (often) -time consuming and frustrating. I imagine the construction was changed for a balance reason (the epic release notes are so vast I haven't spotted it!), but can't we place the station in the old way, then have the colony ship move to that location and build? | ||||

You can use the minimap to send the colony ship to where you want it; just press T and right-click where you want it. Makes it much easier placing it near the border of where you can build things. I would, however, also be in favor of having the failed build message change to "It is too far from the center of the planet" if it is both too far out and too far from the colony ship. |

This has been wholly reimagined in the new version -- thanks! |
