    thanks, I'm not sure if I'll do it though, as global warming is there for a reason.

      Also, scrap and rebuild any treefarms, hybrid forests, or eco preserves that were built before your first fungal pop. They don't have any effect.

        Not quite true. They don't give clean mins, but they handle eco dam caused by terraforming, so don't scrap them all in one chop - you might get some unwanted fungal pops

          Put bases tighter together, and eco-damage will slowly fade away as one of your worries...even better, do cybernetic and free market so you only have -1 planet...and of course, build the singularitory inductor...

            singularity inducer? doesn't that just blow your ecodamage sky high?

              The project not only gives you free quantum converters, but also reduces eco-damage caused by minerals...depending on the amount of minerals you have, this can make the eco-damage go up or down...ultimately, it's better than nothing...and free minerals are always a plus...

                Building the Singularity Inductor will very likely cause many pops and extreme global warming. To avoid this, either your mineral output needs to be very low, or you must have aggressively raised your clean mineral limit. Now, I enjoy having 20 pops all of a sudden since I view that as about 5000 credits, as long as I'm prepared to kill locusts.

                  it always raises my ecodamage. and it usually comes so late in the game, I usually build it after building voice of planet.

                    Its pretty easy to raise your clean mineral limit in the late game-- In my latest I had 20 bases and I took 3 turns where each of them built and scrapped a preserve each time. Those 60 clean minerals on top of the existing limit meant that I only had a couple of bases showing ecodamage even after I built that singularity thingee AND the BMT on the next turn. I love to see a base producing a hundred minerals with no consequences

                      That late, I'd be more likely to build a nanohospital, quantum lab, and satellite than three centauri preserves.

                        that's an exploit.

                          Maybe it's just because i'm fond of extra huge maps, but in my latest game I had 213 mins in my best base and zero damage, and that without exploiting before I mobbed out the last resistance to my superiority.

                            All the bases had the nano and quantum labs within 1 turn of them becoming available IIRC. I also had more sats up of each type than my 11 pop so extra sats were not required.

                              I suppose but if they had a sensible way you could deal with ecodamage I would adopt it. They don't and I was just building stuff for fun anyway

                              Remember that this is the game that I didn't allow myself to capture an enemy base until I had emptied EVERY base on planet of defenders and could capture all bases in a single turn.

                              Considering that I had forgone so many allowed ways of play, I don't feel the slightest bit bad

                              I still think you should have the option of building a dike and MAINTAINING your Coastline

                                To follow up, I don't blame anyone that tries to avoid ecodamage-- The formers method of dealing with it are just so clumsy
