Questions
« on: April 19, 2020, 12:08:29 AM »
1.     (answered - maybe)   On the Colony/Summary Tab there is no more display for 'requested' and 'actual protection level'.     Why is that?

2.     (answered - more opinions welcome)   If need for colony protection still exists, what's the most practical or easiest to manage way now to provide that ? Ground force, Ships without engines, something different?


Thank you for your time .    .    .

Do - or do not. There is no 'try'.

1.  Protection needed/actual is on summary page but not on your home world since home world dont need protection as far as i know. 

2.  Im not sure what is the most effective way to produce protection.  I use little gunboats with basic level of armaments.

1.  Because Steve wanted to release Aurora in April, not July, so hundreds of little cosmetic and/or QoL details were left out for now.

2.  Ground Forces are always the best and cheapest way to reduce unrest -- not the least because they reduce unrest from all sources, not just from a lack of PPV.

I use missile defense satellites with no engines and size 1 missile bays - loading them with ammo is optional.

I build them in the hundreds - the only problem is that it needs resources and fighter factories at the destination to get set up.

Holy cow, how did I never think of that? I love this idea. Have you ever used them in combat?

Is there a list of safe gases for greenhouse affect and anti greenhouse for human races?

Aestusium is greenhouse and Frigusium is anti greenhouse.

Another question how to terraform the moon.
I added 0.1atm of oxygen, what should be my next move.

Terraforming the Moon:

1. Add at least 0.5 atm of water vapour. This will condense out of the atmosphere at a rate of 0.1 atm/year to form Hydro Extent (surface water). You need at least 20% Hydro Extent for a fully habitable world (no penalties), and 1 atm of water vapour creates 40% of Hydro Extent.
2. Add (for the base Human species) about 0.20 atm of oxygen. Consult the Race Window for what your species needs to breathe.
3. If the world needs to be heated or cooled, add Aestusium or Frigusium. Luna does not need either, so you can go straight to ...
4. Add enough Nitrogen so that Oxygen is no more than ~25% of your planet's atmosphere (again, consult the Race Window).

.11 Oxygen will do.
.6 Nitrogen (add this first as it's has a warming effect).
If it's too cold, water vapour doesn't seem to convert to water - from what I've seen so far anyway (currently) - so warm to near zero Celsius, before adding water vapour, if required. Shouldn't be an issue on the moon anyway, as it's quite warm, but watch out for that in colder climes.
The larger the planet, the longer it takes to terraform. So the moon should be quite quick.

1.   Protection needed/actual is on summary page but not on your home world since home world dont need protection as far as i know.   

I don't see it on other colonies either.  So is the value just not (yet) displayed at all? Seems pretty important I'd say.

Have you checked all the otehr colony tabs?  Ground forces?  Miscellaneous?

Yes. I have just started a game on Earth and made an empty colony on Luna - and I don't see it anywhere.   

So if anyone sees the 'Required Protection Level' then please just tell me, where, as I know this thing had quite an impact in VB6-Aurora's colony-efficiency . . .

Your original planet does not require protection.  Protection required is dependent upon colony size.  So if you get a couple million folks in Luna you will get a PV.

If Luna has 0 population, it requires 0 PPV.  C# Aurora doesn't show zero or inappicable values for most things (i.e. there's no "scrap this" button shown unless you're hihghlighting an item that can be scrapped).
