Build spaceport option disappeared

from GalCiv3 Forums

I suddenly noticed that I can't find a spaceport option for any of my planets.  I dunno when that disappeared, I'm pretty far into the game.  I have Retribution and all the official DLCs on an asus intel-based laptop.  Is there a game mechanic that could cause this to go away?  If I can't build spaceports around newly conquered planets, I may not be able to continue this game which would suck.  (I know the workaround is constructors, but they cost an administrative point.)  :(  Any thoughts?  Thanks for any help you can provide!

Correction: build *shipyard* disappeared.  Sorry.  Not seeing it, I forgot exactly what it was called.

if the planet is already sponsoring a shipyard, the "build shipyard" project goes away.  That may be the issue.

Hey, interesting.  That has never been the case before (I know, I've made more than one on purpose and by accident in the past), and it's not an improvement.  But apparently that was it.  Good grief.  So I have to stop sponsoring while I build it.  :/

Thanks!

it's been this way for at least a full version. well over 2 years. i know because i raised the same question probably in 2018 and got the same answer.
