so, that's essentially another method of building stuff from the colony itself?ORIGINAL: Gelatinous Cube

i just said it wasn't a bug right when you just posted. i did have another question in that post. take a look please.
Ah.. gotcha. What you were looking at was the colony's construction queue itself. So, you would build Resupply Ships, Colony Ships, or Construction Ships from there.

one more thing im noticing and i just want to make sure if it's WAD or not.
i started a game as the dayhut who like desert planets and their homeworld is desert but it's still making me research desert colonization for new colonies. is this the way it's supposed to be? you can't colonize any new type of planet until it's researched, even if it is your homeworld type?

No, no. You research your native planet type so that other races can eventually live on your planets, and thus reap the benefits of a multiracial society (which are many).

so that's not a bug? you're supposed to have to research all the colony types?
Just to note that this was caused by the default Ackdarian passenger ship design being too big for the starting construction size, i.e. too big to build.ORIGINAL: themetalcrow
do the ackdarians not have access to passenger ships?
they are the only race ive ever played that seems to not start with any and never builds any even though in one game i had 3 resort bases close to a few of my colonies.
is this something unique with this race?
