Everything is exactly somehow strange, for example, if you start playing in the "Conventional Empire" mode, you roughly have nothing to code except laboratories, converted factories and a couple of shipyards. You are studying trans-Newtonian technology and you can immediately build a mass driver. By the way, you haven't even flown anywhere yet, you haven't explored space, you haven't built ships, and even more so you haven't put this mass driver on other planets, but you can already immediately build a mass driver that will work always and everywhere throughout the game, somehow it doesn't make sense, or do I not understand something?
(by the way, can I deliver several masses of drivers to the planet and they will work twice as efficiently?)
