Quote from: "MWadwell"What is the justification to only allowing one ship to carry the entire item (factory/mine/shipyard/etc.)?
I would have throught that there is no reason why the item cannot be dis-assembled and shipped in multiple freighters.
After all, a lot of large machinery is dis-assembled today to be re-located - I've seen comments about an 8000t excavator (for an open cut mine) being dis-assembled and re-located.
The only justification was me thinking it would be a good idea

I think that there could be some types of ground facilities that cannot be moved - such as fortifications.
But I also believe that most facilities should be able to be dis-assembled and moved (such as the Russian factories that were moved in WWII to keep them out of German hands).
