If you look in the Mongo system I have set Mongo I and II to Industry. When I move the mouse over the cog to see the breakdown my Gas Generator on Mongo III (Gas Giant) doesn't appear in the breakdown (no tech 'Orbital Generation' or even a mention of the Gas Generator), I waited a few turns to see if it might kick in, it didn't show up, as I have built up the bonus for industry in that system its kind of hard seeing the wood for the trees, so im not sure if has been applied and is just not showing. The solar generator that was built after showed up as a bonus the turn after it was built.
Just hope ive got it right this time, Im fed up with looking a donut

EDIT: Just double checked in the next system geared for production, industry was at 71.7 built the gas generator, waited a few turns and the bonus had not been added, it was still 71.7 (full pop' and health on the planet) when I put the solar generator in the bonus was added and showed up straight away
Orbital Generation Problem

Re: Orbital Generation Problem
Mongo III also requires a industry focus, according to buildings.txt. I suppose that someone should modify the stringtable accordingly.
Re: Orbital Generation Problem
Thanks that worked. As a workaround till its fixed I just altered the focus from INDUSTRY to RESEARCH and it showed up.qsswin wrote:Mongo III also requires a industry focus, according to buildings.txt. I suppose that someone should modify the stringtable accordingly.
Hope they fix this for the next build, its a good idea the way that you can aim to develop industry and mining from carefully selecting the tech, yes it has been done before but not in this manner. Respect to the FO team, FO just keeps getting better.
Would someone from the team just comment that the problem has been noted?
IMHO I think it works better with a research focus, I get the image of a small outpost station conducting experiments and research in high orbit connected to a huge generator on an anti gravity platform with a small team of engineers stationed at the outpost.
Thanks

Re: Orbital Generation Problem
If you'd like something fixed in a specific way, posting a patch that implements that fix would help make it happen.
