Beta 5: more than one module

from Stardock Forums
I made a "super constructor" design, carrying two constructor modules.

Unfortunately, it doesn't work as expected and only one module gets actually used. I think the same is true for other modules (troop transport, colonies).

Two troop transport modules doubles the number of troops you can load. I haven't tried 2 colony modules or constructor modules.

Doubling troop or colony modules do indeed double the pop in a ship. Not sure on trade or const though. I'm guessing those two don't see any benefit from being doubled.

Yea, it's a bug with the way modules are handled.

is there any way we can keep it in the game? I mean bulding a major settling ship or even a super constructor sounds usefull.

So can we expect multiple unit constructors?

Multiple constructor units would be very cool

I'm not sure how useful a major settling ship would be Why would you want twice as much population on a single colony? You could have one ship able to start two colonies, but the colony rush would be over before you could build it. A ship that could start multiple trade routes I could see. I haven't thought about how useful it would be, but it certainly would be cool. Back in the GC1 days I wanted to make Firefly class starship (named Serenity, of course) that would fly around the galaxy making deals and could maybe stand up to some light combat if it had to. But not much point if it dies the first time it makes a trade route.
