Multiple Starports

from GalCiv2 Forums
I have noticed when I invade an AI planet it will often have mulitple starports. Is there any advantage to having more than one on a planet?

PS I wouls also like to know how to transport citizens from one of my planets to another, if that is possible.

THX!!

ithink that this is probably a bug(multiple starports, that is)

As for "re-zoning" your citizens use your combat troop ships.

good luck newbie

I think that is fixed and is just a bug with the icon for Soil Improvement and/or Habitat improvement etc.

Try upgrading to the Beta (Archive whatever version you are using just in case, and backup save games) and I think it is fixed. If so, just wait until 1.1 because it will then be fixed then.

You can make colony ships and/or troop transports. Troop transports are better because you can use the Adv Troop Modules if you have them to hold more troops.

Hope that helps

The new beta has this problem . I even had the opposite, a got a planet off the AI which didn't have a starport, and I couldn't build one either. It was really annoying as it had awesome production bonuses, including a pro capitol, but couldn't build ships....

Hehe, sounds like they built over the starport. You can only ever build one on a planet, and them building over it means you can't build one again. The AI is incredibly sneaky.

I remember seeing a dev post that mentioned the AI was treating starports as a soil enhancement/farm or some such odd bug like that......I also remember it being mentioned that i was either fixed in the latest beta, or would be for 1.1 final.
