6 years ago - [x] Disable terraforming by default, regardless of game settings.
- [x] Make a new tech path, branching out of Planet Development, concerned with the development and improvement of terraforming technology. May have to give it a secondary bonus, to make it worth researching even when terraforming is disabled.
- [x] Increasingly high quantity of energy hurdles towards the end of the branch.
- [x] Move Atroan "Core Reprogramming" unlock to that branch. whaps self for forgetting about that and hooking it up to Metropolitan Optimization
- [x] Ideas for advanced terraforming:
- Unlock terraforming of new resources (will need some heavy rewiring)
- Reduce terraforming costs (will need some slightly less heavy rewiring)
- [x] Include things such as the Nylli Megafarm/Hydrogenator orbitals and the Hydroponics Satellite.
- [x] Buff Hydroponics Satellites (to make them a more viable option compared to their regular counterparts, especially for Nylli) and change their costs to be less self-crippling. (Maybe add an Ore cost if the Energy costs aren't adequate?)
- [x] Alternatively, keep the research cost, and make Hydroponics Satellites negate 100 RP's worth of research decay to offset said cost.
