You can, if you use the time units to retrieve that bonus.

I would save it for Thermal Troopers for when the bugs come for your brains :P

True it's wasteful but it's more wasteful to not use 4 free energy when I produce all I need. Sure using it this (and next) turn is less ideal than I want but I need that energy.

Do you suppose history related buildings, like museums might be added? Or perhaps other educational buildings, like schools?

From a roleplay perspective, perhaps these could help teach the next generation about Earth and key concepts like history, math, and science. From a mechanics point of view, maybe schools could help the kids generate RP, or allow the conversion of population to officers, doctors, or engineers.

Pretty short...

*cough* Terra Vault Secret Project *cough*
I mean, what?
Schools would be interesting, but unnecessarily complicated; when your pop grows, +1 RP, -1 Energy?
I like the conversion to specialists idea, but then the facility should take up a 'research spot'.

Some observations on the rules:
- Everything is still labeled Desponea from last time.
- As hilarious as it sounds to fire missiles with giant water balloons, Ballastic Missiles just don't sound as intimidating as the normal ballistic kind. (also see: Hiper Capacitor)
- It costs a resource that is impossible to produce(Wealth)to end a war or get to friendly terms with a faction. I hope you're in it for the long haul.
- How the fuck do I get Spice? Do you just get one for being in the Arctic/Xenofungus? There's no building for farming it.
- Apparently everyone forgot how to build houses so you need to go and research it. I guess someone found some blueprints for fancy suburban houses before you crashed, though, so you can make those whenever.
- Base Cores can't be built with BP, but it's ok because you technically don't need to have one to build buildings in a base site.
- You can build Heavy Fighters with ULTRA SCIENCE PROTON JETS despite never having figured out how to fly.
- Why exactly does moving Petrol/Heavy Elements cost IP?
- Cannibalism is apparently a thing. Either that or you can make your people be like Taoist monks and subsist on air and mist.

Hmmm...

Perhaps a children's creche tehno-nursery would come to one's mind.
I'd rather have it simply add more harmony though.

I should clarify, all Petroleum/HE/Strategic resources are automatically stored in your faction's capital and transported free of charge, (so you don't have to keep track of where exactly your resources are, in case you have many bases). If you want to move your strategic supply somewhere else, then it costs resources.

IP used to be industrial power and I forgot to change it, whatever, now it will cost Ideological power to move your reserves.

But how do I get spice? This is actually really important.

Offhand, I believe Alien Botanics is necessary to harvest Spice in Xenofungus and Arctic regions.

There's no evidence of that in the description of Spice or Alien Botanics.
