nobody wants to work in terraforming installment

[Bootz]

trying to terraform venus but i cant get any of the population there to work at all.   is there a reason for this ?

Most likely the colony cost is too high and they are all needed to make food.

Check the workers available in the population and production summary.

5% + (5% * cost)  of  a population goes to the agriculture sector to feed the population. I forget the percentage that does to the services sector, but that is a high percentage as well. Then the rest are workers for government installations. Venus is impossible to terraform via ground installations (except for maybe far end level), so the only way to do it is from an orbital terraformer (ship).

Or Orbital habitats.But Ship bases Terraformers are probably the most handy solution.

Did anyone put this one into the "Dumb Newbie Mistakes" thread (which seems to be beginning to drift off topic, btw)?  I thought I saw it there....
