thanks for all the help thusfar. another question

econ bases

from GalCiv2 Forums
Can a planet benefit from multiple econ bases (i believe so but like concrete knowledge)? Is there a limit to how many they can benefit from?


bonus question:

does population affect production? I'm sure i've read 'no' but i build worlds with a starbase and 4+ industry sectors and my shields seem weak.

y'all have been good to me, thanks.

Yes

The limit is how many you can get to cover the planet with the limit of four bases per sector. Depending on where the planet is within the sector you can get up to 24 bases to cover a planet, but the planet would have to be in a perfect spot to get a full 24 influencing it.

Yes, the limit is 4 starbases max per sector. With this limitation all comes to the position of the planet within a sector, and the actual "range" of each starbase in this and all neighboring sectors. IIRC in the worst case you can "cover" the planet with 12 starbases, in best with 24.

Only indirectly by providing money for production. Otherwise I don't know for ANY direct effect.

Population does not affect production. Check your sliders - if your overall spending is low, or if most of your money is going into social or research, military output will be low. Also, focusing on social or research will reduce military production.
