Ok for 2 days i have a planet with 40% hab and basically i had to take this planet.
Anyways i put 30 of the 100 buildings into BIOS to get the hab to 100% and added another 20 early today so i have 50 now and the 40% HAS NOT CHANGED
WHY this is a crucial planet and its messing me up!!!
thanks for the help

40% hab is a strange thing. the game only allows the hab rating to be 40% or higher, even if the conditions warrent a smaller hab rating. so the rating of the planet could have been like 20%, but the game cranked it up to 40%. You still have to bioform up to the real 40% hab before it starts rising for real. Hope that makes sense. Give it time, it will rise

Also dont build more bioformers your population can support. When colonizing you have 75.000 people. Thats enough for 15 biof. only. So colonize only 15 bioformers but 83/84 megas. Add more bioformers from time to time but not more than your people can support. (Eff% = 100%)
Thats a waste and useless.
Dont forget the more empty megas you have (CAP%) the faster pop will grow. 83 megas are a better start than 68 megas, cause your CAP% will be lower.

thanks to both of you i didnt know both the things
i have 130+k ppl but since i got barely any megas thats prolly why the bios are not working... i thought bios work by themselves cause they are like machiens whatever... grr

ewwwwww... Did you build on a 40% hab planet? That must have been expensive. Usually you wait till it's up past 90%

60% - 65% is my thumb rule in the beginning. Later 55%.
It's correct, for example a planet a planet with 100% temp, 0% atmo and 1% water will be shown up as 40% if you are Shy'dow in fact it's 11%(!) hab. You have to pay for 11% and if you have a low nano tech it takes awfully long. I had this kind of planets in g10 alot thats why I gave up.

It took me 2 weeks and 21 bios to terraform a 40% to 100%. Waste of time though coz' i got plastered in galaxy16.

Let's say I have a system with 100% hab and it says that bios give me a higher growth rate and it SEEMS to be making my buildings cheaper...so do I want to keep my bios or do I leave 'em...and BTW...can building cost get lower than 6 O/P?

Building costs cannot be lower than 6 o/p because the Hab is at 100% and therefore can't get lower in that respect. Anyway, alpha, its me JC Denton, your previous ally, until we were backstabbed anyway, which galaxy are you in and how are you doing?
