Orbital Harvesting

March 7, 2022 11:55:03 AM from Galactic Civilizations IV ForumsGalactic Civilizations IV Forums

The orbital harvesting techs for use on colonies are great! I found one snag though.

If you make a Precursor world into a colony, you are unable to harvest any special resources it had, because the spot for selecting the orbital harvesting is blocked by whatever special icon thing the Precursor world has.

It would be great if you could fix it so we can make Precursor worlds colonies, and still be able to use the orbital harvesting techs on them.

Happy Bug Squashing!

Currently, every world can have 1 upgrade. And precursor worlds all start with an upgrade, so they can't get an additional one.

If I was going to change anything here I would have future techs able to increase the number of upgrades a colony could have.

Ya but a precursor world that is a colony instead of a core world gets no benefits from whatever precursor thingy it has, since you have to make it a core world to be able to utilize whatever the precursor thing is on it. If you make it a colony it isn't sending that %50 manufacturing (or whatever the precursor bonus is) to the core world it is feeding. Plus you can't harvest any resources that are on the colony either, since the orbital refining techs are blocked out by the precursor symbol that is giving you no benefits as a colony.

That looks like a word salad, I have trouble explaining stuff.

Happy Wednesday.

I think all colonies you have should automatically get upgraded when you research the tech, because having to go through every colony you have, see if it has anything, click upgrade, then click the upgrade is a pain.
