Advanced Colonization Techs worth it?

Post by Blueinstinct »

Hey, i have a question regarding the techs for advanced colonization.
In the description for adv continental colo it says it will double the population growth of continental planets.

will this result in +100% growth on all my cont. worlds for all my population? or only the ones i conlonize after the tech is done?
I ask because i vaguely remember that i tried that tech in one of my first attemts of the game a long time ago and was very disapointed back than.

greetings

It is retroactive in that it will benefit existing and future colonies, assuming of cause they are (in this case) continental colonies. As for the effect it's going to improve the existing rate, you aren't going to go from a 5% population rate to 100% rate just from that tech. Your rates after finishing it be sit at between 8% - 10%.

I don't think it's bugged, it's just not working exactly as you'd expect it to work.

Basically, it doesn't work on your own native planet type. See this link for further information:

In my own Research Unleashed mod (shameless plug!), the tech is renamed to better describe what actually happens.

Bump for this nugget to put in my collected notes. Only impacts non-native colony types.
