PQ and pop cap

from GalCiv2 Forums
i've noticed that my population caps on a planet's base quality, and doesn't go up when i research new terraforming levels. i tried searching to see if this is intentional or not. i've also noticed that lower PQ planets tend to have a lot of upgradability, which is nice, but it's kind of disappointing that the pop cap is so low for these planets.

bump. and, the main point of my post is to ask if the pop cap tied to base quality is intentional.

There is a hard limit to population size based on PQ, and it is intentional. The only place I've ever seen is spelled out is the population page of the GalCiv wiki site. The wiki in general is not well kept-up, but I don't think the population limits have been changed since the game was released.

hm, i guess i never noticed that it doesn't go up as a planet's quality is improved.

Now they're all moving 6 moves per turn instead of 4, is that normal?
