Topic: Making portals free in Core Systems

What about after 7 days when a system becomes a core system the portals in that system are free to build if there is a portal already built there. Its annoying trying to see which portals to build etc when theres a whole heap of them that needs portalling.

Would probably require some (maybe a lot) of programming as the game isn't designed to do stuff like that.  So that's a likely no =P

Easier to just build 1 portal in a core system, you only get 3 (including your home system).

What in the world would be a "core" system ...

Re: Making portals free in Core Systems

I have offered thought of having an operation that lowers the portal build cost but really there would not be much point and maybe you would use it 2 or 3 times in a round and that would be it

Re: Making portals free in Core Systems

well core systems cant be attacked anyway so dont really need it be portaled. maybe there should be something that tells you that the system is now 1 of your core systems.
maybe put something on the build page saying when it has become a core system?

Yeah my point was that it just looks very unorganized with unportalled planets mixed with portal led. Also has chances of other planets in other systems being hidden between them and being missed to being portal led.

Re: Making portals free in Core Systems

Ah I see what you mean. Maybe then once the system becomes a core system the game automatically just portals the planets then?

Re: Making portals free in Core Systems

yeah thats  better idea:)

Re: Making portals free in Core Systems

Doubt it will happen though but if they portal automatically and for free at least then you will know that is a core system for certain.
As me personally I don't know if certain systems are core systems yet or not.

Re: Making portals free in Core Systems

If you want it to look neat and to stop planets being missed by being mixed in with core systems how about when the system becomes a core system the ability to build them gets removed as well?
Could also make it that when it becomes a core system then once you have built 1 then the message that says there is no portals disappears?

Re: Making portals free in Core Systems

There's better things to work on than this imo, there's only two core systems, easy to remember which is which, if it irks you that much then build them lol. smile
