PA is one of my favorite games, but theres one question i have. How do resources on one planet get to another one? So i think that having a Resources transporter ship should be built in a Orbital Factory or Orbital Launcher. You can tell it to constantly get resources from one planet to another, and repeat the process. Planets should also have a chart showing the metal and energy per planet when zoomed out on the galaxy map. Then you know where to send the resource ship. You should also be able to do it with enemys so you can earn their trust for alliances. Then a Orbital transport post needs to be built. Itll be a building big enough to fit a Resource transporter, and itll have an elevator going into the ground. The Resource transporter will dock, remove all its resources, and move forward back to its original planet to get more and repeat its process. I hope you guys liked my idea, and share it with everyone else!
Well having resource management like that has been suggested by people before, bit ultimately I feel it might simply get in the way of playing the game.
Well, its a way to make friendship and alliances with other people without just asking to alliance. Anyways, theyll trust you more in a match to help them.
Well to be honest, this isn't a 4x game, any alliance made is one of convenience, not cooperation towards a goal. Ultimately your goal should be to make your opponents trust you only just further then they can throw you. Then sink in the dagger to finish them off.
