	Specific Development Plans Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

I don't want to discuss the pros/cons and inner workings of
development plans as this has already been done in other threads.

What I want is for people to post the development plans that
they use that actually work, also can you specify what race they
work for.

Thanks in advance.

My style is builder, I play Medium cluster galaxy, modified humans, medium star lines- many, specials- average, random events normal, and 8 opponents. I have those dev plans for my planets:

All planets: 1- Infrastructure. 2-none, 3-none.
Red Ring: 1- terraforming, 2-Mine, 3-none
Yellow Ring: 1- terraforming, 2-Mine, 3-none
Green Ring: 1-Manufacture, 2-none, 3-none
Sweet spot: 1- Manufacture, 2-none, 3- none
Mineral Poor: 1-none, 2-Manufacture, 3-none
Mineral Rich: 1-Mine, 2-none, 3-none
Low biodiversity: 1-none, 2-manufacture, 3- none
High biodiversity: 1-none, 2-farm, 3-none
Large: 1-manufacture, 2-none, 3-none
New: 1-Infrastructure, 2- Government, 3- none.

That’s all. As far, (turn 140) it did quite well.
I play as modified Humans.

My Humans are:

Bioharvest- superior.
Research- poor
Creativity-original
Economy- specie
Accuracy- poor
Reflexes- poor
Government Type- Absolutist
Starting planet mineral richness- poor.
Starting planet biodiversity- similar.
Citizenship- Loyalty

I hope it helps.

That's quite interesting, I never thought to put Red/Yellow Ring to terraforming & mine, I'll try that out straight away.

Thanks Serb.

Dev plans dont realy do much for me i have found. I just check for new planets every turn and look to see what kind of planet i want. ie... Mine, Research, Industrial, Farming, or Recreation. I then set up the whole planet right at the start and move on. I almost never have to look at them again untill they start kicking out ships.

jeah - I usually keep the planetary AI on, but if I want an mining planet, or a industrial planet, etc. I go into the planetary infustructure and plan all the DEAs at the beginning.

I set up a few DEA plans, for Rich, Poor, Secondary and Core. After a planet is colonized I "build" the most important ones like GOV, REC, and what is specific like MINES, IND or BIO. I dont fill all the DEAs. I leave something to the VR too. Why the hell am I paying him for.

Can anyone confirm that the classification PRIMARY relates to the first planet in the system that you colonize? Thanks

	Primary Theory Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

Here's a theory: What if the Primary planet is the one with your system seat of government?

Its something to test I suppose.

Core, Primary, Secondary and Frontier classifications determinates distance from planet with IMPERIAL Seat of government. Try to build Imperial seat of government on newly colonized planet and see what will happens- when ISG will be comlete this "Frontier" planet will become "Core".
