| Post subject: | Upgrade to Exotics |
*so i was browsing the internet and came across this thing called 'Dyson Trees' Quote: A Dyson tree is a hypothetical genetically-engineered plant, (perhaps resembling a tree) capable of growing in a comet, suggested by the physicist Freeman Dyson. He suggested that such plants could produce a breathable atmosphere within hollow spaces in the comet (or even within the plants themselves) utilising solar energy and cometary materials, thus providing self-sustaining habitats for humanity in the outer solar system. A Dyson tree might consist of a few main trunk structures growing out from a comet nucleus, flowering into branches and leaves that intertwine, forming a spherical structure possibly dozens of kilometers across. perhapse instead of growing in a comet, they grow out of this exotic alien world giving a size+2 resources +4, yielding a megacollosal 19x megarich 'exotic dyson'. *Option 2 is the bioluminous world i suggested in another thread, where the world is turned dark and the 'exotic' turns into a bioluminous planet where the trees give off their own light. *Option 3 is a 'Shattered Planet' that is made up of the core, and then the shattered remains which became 'sky island' orbiting around the core. another variant is a meteor, or comet 'shattered' around the planet forming sky islands. these can be like the islands in avatar, with vines or other random stuff cascading down. |

a dyson isnt a dyson if there isnt a star in the center. |

look up dyson tree. it was theorized by freeman dyson aswell as dyson swarms, rings, orbitals, and spheres. |

Still having trouble reconciling this in my mind. You plant a tree on an exotic and it grows a dyson sphere? That is assuming that the dyson planet type is infact a sphere. |

no, you plant trees on exotic, trees on top of trees, trees on top of more trees, and it makes a giant sphere that rivals the size of a dyson. |

It's not a Dyson Sphere, the name "Dyson" is the name of the guy who came up with these things, it doesn't refer to something surrounding a star. I think it's an interesting idea, could be cool as an upgrade for Exotics, or for something else. |

Exotics don't need an upgrade. Nor do Dysons for that matter... |

not everyone is going to invest the time or money it takes to make a natural exotic good. |

Goreaj Exotic Average Mining: Very Abundant Research: Abundant Artifact: Rich (not a real planet, I don't have the luck to find exotics) Pragus Metallic Very Massive Mining: Very Rich Artifact: Average Research: Very Abundant (real planet) Would you take the exotic just because it was exotic? I did that the first time I found a toxic. It's average/rich... |

Yea well there are some that are good in resources but size sucks i took one on purpose lol it nets 120 points without all special structures. Another one is worth it for the size its 2x Mining. So yes i think we need a upgrade like a Size+2 and resources by 1 Cant be used on mission exotic. |
