New Tech's
Biology/Genetics
Terraforming
The base terraforming technologies have their atm rates reduced by 60% at the lower tech levels. The rate of tech increase has improved so the higher tech levels are reduced by around 40%. The starting racial tech rate per module/installation is 0.0004 atm per year. Date 07.12.2018
Constructions/Production
Defensive Systems
Energy Weapons
Ground Combat
Logistics
Maintenance Capacity
Each maintenance facility or maintenance module has a basic capacity of 1000 tons. A new tech line exists that can raise this capacity in increments, starting with 1200 capacity for 2000 RP. The 2000 ton capacity is at 16,000 RP and the max is 3600 tons at 120,000 RP. Date 07.12.2018
Refuelling Hub
A Refuelling Hub can be mounted on a ship. It is a commercial system with a research cost of 10,000 RP, build cost of 2400 BP and a size of 100,000 tons. Date 20.07.2017
Refulling System
A new technology line - Refuelling Systems - provides the basis of the rate of refuelling and allows ships to mount systems to refuel other ships. The baseline system (Refuelling System: 50,000 LPH) sets the racial refuelling rate at 50,000 litres per hour and allows the use of the first ship-mounted Refuelling System. There are ten further steps in the tech progression with the highest tech system allowing refuelling at 500,000 litres per hour. Date 20.07.2017
Underway Replenishment
Underway Replenishment allows the refuelling to take place while both ships are in the same fleet and underway. Priorities can be set for the refuelling order when multiple ships are involved. The first Underway Replenishment tech allows refuelling at 20% of the normal rate (2500 RP), rising to 100% with the highest tech (40,000 RP). Date 20.07.2017
Missles/Kinetic Weapons
Power and Propulsion
Max Engine Size
A new Maximum Engine Size tech progression has been added. The starting max engine size is 25 HS. The research progression is 40 HS, 60 HS, 100 HS, 160 HS, 250 HS and 400 HS, with the costs ranging from 2,000 RP to 60,000 RP. Date 14.05.2017
Sensor and Fire Controle
Unsure
Population Tech
A new concept, Population Capacity, has been added to C# Aurora. This represents the maximum population that can be maintained on a single body and is primarily determined by surface area. This is the total of all populations on the same body, not per population.
Therefore, I am going to use twelve billion as the baseline max capacity for an Earth-sized planet and four billion as the point at which growth rates are affected. Growth will follow the normal rules for up to 1/3rd of max capacity and then will fall off at a linear rate, hitting zero growth at max capacity (replicating the situation on Earth). The max capacity of a body will be equal to: (Surface Area / Earth Surface Area) * twelve billion. I will add some tech options to improve that capacity, particularly for smaller bodies.
