| | | | |
| − | If terraforming is in fact adding additional fields to a planet, then this is going to alienate a lot of people. It seems that Blue Frog Gaming is ok with cheating as long as they are making money from it. I do not buy stuff (or take surveys or whatever) to earn credits and do not intend to. As such I will never be taking part in terraforming.
| + | ==Cost== |
| | + | Other pages (Fields, Building, etc) indicate that the cost for terraforming depends on the number of fields already on the planet, so that terraforming a small planet would be fairly inexpensive, but terraforming a larger planet would be more expensive. Someone should verify which information is correct. |

| − | How many fields will it add?

| − | Can you increase the temperature of the planet?

| − | I don't think so.

| − | | |
| − | I tried terraforming to see what it would do and for 32k in credits approximate on a planet of size 127 or so it would raise the fields by 5 pts. and nothing else was affected from initial plans. It waited for approval which I did not go ahead with.

| − | == Seems like robbery to me ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | A planet with 170ish fields might be a good candidate, but 50k+ in credits for five additional fields is crazy overpriced. I wouldn't worry about it unbalancing the game too much; people with credits will still find it more economical to re-colonize. I suspect this is an endgame ability to be used when, say, your home planet needs just a few more fields to squeeze in the foundry or something.

| − | Blue Frog made this comment about it:
| |
| − | | |
| − | I think you and everyone else complaining about the large cost of upgrading an already huge planet are missing the point. You'll never fill a 306 field planet, or even a 206, so why would you terraform it? If we based the price such that it were affordable for a 300 field planet, which nobody would ever terraform, it would be way too cheap for a 150 field planet which will be terraformed frequently.

| − | | |
| − | We're just now getting to the point where people are filling their home worlds (163 fields) after the game has been live for exactly 4 months. And since buildings cost exponentially more with each level, you'd have to play for probably at least a year just to fill a 185 slot (assuming you're not intentionally doing stuff to overbuild like Factory lvl 10).
| |
| − | | |
| − | The price for upgrading your home world is about 53k credits. That's been fairly common already.

| − | | |
| − | Can this increase a planet's size beyond 320? I heard that was the max base size.

Cost
Other pages (Fields, Building, etc) indicate that the cost for terraforming depends on the number of fields already on the planet, so that terraforming a small planet would be fairly inexpensive, but terraforming a larger planet would be more expensive. Someone should verify which information is correct.
Lottery
I won a terraform in the Lottery, but cannot seem to use it. I know that planets with more than 320 fields cannot be colonized, but is there an upper limit to how many fields you can add to a planet by terraforming?
