Hi, the above is the TOC style list. Now I'll open the floor for discussion and also note the short commentary in the succeeding post.
About those expanded tooltips, I mean on the tech screen is where I mean. I don't think it would insult anyone if the research institute tip specified that you need to build xeno labs before you can construct it. Especially given that you can own the science while not having the xeno developments or -whatever, which grants you xeno labs
Notes
* How did this get overlooked??
*2 Simply, I want a planet to continue being locked to the global tax wheel, while having a social-military level of my choosing
*3 I never want to see "this piece has other pieces attached so you can't remove it"; why not group-select the relevant pieces for me insetad?
*4 Example, .2 morale penalty lowers raw production on world X, which was optimized to build improvement Y in say 3 turns. Instead it winds up being enough for just 99% of Y's cost over 3 turns, thus requiring a 4th turn to complete. This seems important for your ocd optimizer (55%+ of playerbase)
