Have you tested the two orbitals yet? Mechan's been finding orbitals need to be in slot 0 to gain an economy, so I wanted to see if you had the test set up yet to corroborate.
nope - and not enough slots for setting up another 6 T1 to get the points for that.
That is interesting - the obvious explanation is that the Prometheus also has an undocumented "High Tech" system economy influence.
I have a similar test coming up with a Civilian Outpost (at 50% so far with just the L Bio built) so it'll be interesting to see if I get more than 100% with the smaller station or not.
My Coriolis, OK Slot 0 not 1 if that is what you are reffering to, (built after three surface installations) immediatly took over the influences ....
This does very much sound like the problem is just things catching up with calculations, rather than any strict dependency on build order - which might be why it seems to be intermittently reported only.
This seems right to me, you've had the exact same thing as it seem happened with my ground t3 port with 3 refineries.
How does the infra in the rest of the system help? Does it need to be near by? Provide some of the refineries inputs (like extraction econ stuff?) Do we know yet?
Yeah I think if you now push Dev up I think it will arrive, it will be interesting to figure out how they are exactly related!
Yeah, Friends and I have built ground ports, then a cori and the cori eventually picked up the econ without us building more on the planet!
In my system, I have a Coriolis orbiting a refinery major/industrial minor economy planet. I have built two extraction orbital installations around other planets, but these have zero effect on the Coriolis so far and do not show up as an economy factor in the Captain's Log readout when docking at the Coriolis.
Yes, I've not seen it work, I'd not expect this to change the Coriolis's economy but wondered if it maybe increased the supply of commodities available as the station can get the inputs it needs, in system, maybe?
Sort of - the other constructions will increase the global system variables like wealth, development level, etc. and improvements to those can improve the underlying markets.
Very interesting, and is a good case for keeping 'pure' economies as to refinery planets. In my own mixed-economy planet, Coriolis in orbit and with 1 tier 2 industrial settlement, it took four refinery hubs before I got steel and titanium. No liquid oxygen, semiconductors and insulating membranes in my market.
I built a fourth refinery hub. The proportion of the refinery economy grew from 135% to 180% and supply of all commodities increased by approximately 1.33 times.
| Refinery hubs | Colony | Refinery | Refinery proportion increase | Supply multiplier |
| 0 | 1.00 | 0.00 | ||
| 1 | 0.50 | 0.50 | 0.50 | |
| 2 | 0.00 | 1.00 | 0.50 | 2.87 |
| 3 | 0.00 | 1.35 | 0.35 | 1.73 |
| 4 | 0.00 | 1.80 | 0.45 | 1.33 |
nice one - what would be really interesting (You still got a free slot?) is how the numbers would change if you now add a large Industrial Settlement (and its market-values of course!)
