Does anyone know how much indepth Horizon will get into managing each planet that their race is incharge of and can they freely see data on their allies.
To add dimension Each planet could have management options so that these planets could become specialized alowing for faster and more efficient use of resources.

in the "what we know so far" threads there are a links to Threads were this was discused.
http://forum.l3o.com/ftopic120.html
however the Info is very much spread around in the board, and often difficult to find.
(like in this thread, were it is perhaps necessary to read a loooong suggestion before you get a little special info on colonies. http://forum.l3o.com/ftopic91.html)
As far as i remember there was said you can specialize colonies and you can change their spezialisation, but only over time.
Also there are different types of "basic" colonies, with different uses. |

There is a dedicated planetary screen where you make decisions on what to build on each planet, see all the details on how each colony is doing. The management is very straight-forward (yet detailed) and unique, letting you make decisions with 1 or 2 clicks quickly and move on. The design is not totally new but it's not something seen in this genre before. We wanted to make the planet management fun and simple to execute decisions rather than a chore.
You can see some basic data on planets where you don't have a presence from past exploration/surveys but in order to see what's happening you need spies or reports from other sources etc.
