I personally think we need something that can add artifact or mining potential like the data research optimizer does with research. I also feel that the Gaia seed should increase planet size by 2 and resources by maybe 3? shouldn't you be able to fix up a terra better than an icy?

I also don't love the maxes on the terra formers or size, and would LOVE to see these eliminated or raised but let me know what you guys think, I might just be getting greedy...

Yeah, probably just getting greedy. And it seems unlikely that anything will increase something's size by 2 again, unless its restricted to Massive or less, I'm not sure Dan intended to have Mega Colossal planets.

good point, but I still like the idea of an artifact to increase artifact production or mining like the data research optimizer

Yeah, I've suggested the artifact one before, and so has someone else. There is a mining one; it's specific to Toxic planets, but it increases it by 2 instead of 1.

i like the mining +1 for any planet, i like the artifact +1 for any planet, and i like the gaia seed idea and removing the limits on terraformers. i see no reason to have limits considering if someone wants to superbuff a planet and it gets taken, then its their own fault. if they want to superbuff their made planets, then they deserve to do that.

exactly what I was thinking in a less greedy way I guess haha

i still stand by my original post. if you want to superbuff a planet then thats your business, and the game shouldnt tell you otherwise, cause if it gets taken then its your own fault for not distributing the wealth.

I made a suggestion a while back about a planet conversion artifact for Volcanics that would turn them into Obsidian worlds with a size and mining boost. Would be nice if there was an artifact booster to go with the research and mining boosters that are already out there to be found. Those damn Scruuge wern't very forthcoming when they were out and about.
