Title: Supported Population percentage not moving
Post by: undercovergeek on December 18, 2023, 10:26:48 AM
Hopefully not another amateur question

I have placed 800 infrastructure on Ceres, and it needs 700 to support 1 million

I have placed 150 infrastructure on Io, and it needs 600 ti support 1 million

looking at Io's summary screen it shows me there is enough infrastructure to support . 17 million with the stuff thats already there

But on Ceres needing 700 to support 1 million the figure that i can actually support with 800 infrastructure still shows 0 - does it need something else or can i not put people on ceres

TIA

Ceres has a gravity of 0.028 G, which on default human race settings requires low-gravity infrastructure to colonize. You can see this by the "LG" appended to the colony cost in several windows.

Io has a gravity greater than 0.1 G, which on default human race settings is considered habitable and requires only normal infrastructure to colonize. This is why you can put population on Io, but not on Ceres.

Perfect thank you

Is low grav infrastructure something I can research?

I’ll go back and pick it all up again!

You can build it at populations, just like normal infrastructure.
