It seems that the unit build price upgrade makes units more expensive in stead of cheaper. Is this an error? It would be awesome if your planets auto-mine gold.

It seems that the unit build price upgrade makes units more expensive in stead of cheaper. Is this an error? It would be awesome if your planets auto-mine gold... the constant clicking is a lot of work and detracts from the game. Thanks.

I agree with both of these points. Also as someone else mentioned controlling how many ships to send out - I sent out my largest planet to capture a tiny one before I understood the mechanics - which brings up another point. To replenish a 440 ship planet would take HOURS building 3-10 ships at a time so it makes planets that attack pay a little too high of a price.

  "Also as someone else mentioned controlling how many ships to send out": I'm considering this; "To replenish a 440 ship planet": is difficult making this easier for new players to enter in the game(:

"It would be awesome if your planets auto-mine gold": I'm thinking about making the life of gold diggers easier :D. Any other suggestions like semi automatic?

  Personally, I would make "building units" and "mining gold" a planet's standard designation set by the user. If no other commands are given, the planet will default to building units or mining gold continuously. This will make the two upgrade paths: "mining quantity" and "unit quantity" unneeded... I believe that these just cloud the game-play. To be honest, at first, I was considering only upgrading the quantities in stead of the speed because I got tired of the constant clicking, were it not that the mining speed and unit build speed are the important upgrades... I do not see how the quantities will help you win the game. I haven't tried the game sufficiently to have an opinion on the other upgrade paths, such as attack/defense/range/speed. Hope this helps... Cheers

    By upgrading the quantity you have less work, as you said. This is kind of making more automatic. You can also let the planet do the job and then do other stuff during that time if you want and then have a lot of gold (:

      The extra clicking for gold/units, even the manual upgrading of so many planet enhancements, distracts from the conquest portion of the game. The more planets I get, the more tedious 'work' I have. I found it unbearable above 20 systems (about half were lvl 3/4 in both speed&quantity).

        I have to work out some ideas for this, which is your username?
