Kimberly's Refuge, ET. AL.

from GalCiv3 Forums

Couple of game play questions. The Kimberly Refuge project requires Promethius Stone. I have played 10-12 games to a hundred turns and I have never found that resource. Is KR supposed to be that hard? Next, is it still advisable to specialize colonies for the best results and when you get the 3 constructors from the ideology trait, are they better used as constructors or upgraded to colony ships?

Promethius Stone?  Really?  We reported in the beta that a number of improvements required Promethius Stone and that there was no such resource, I thought they had all been fixed.  Promethius Stone exists on planets, it's just that if you mine it it generates Promethium, not Promethius Stones.

To date, I have never built that project but the AI has many times in my games so they are able to find that resource which tells me it must be out there. I don't recall if I've found/mined it as that project is always built by the AI long before I could ever do it. While relearning the game I have the AI set to normal so they should not have any buffs/cheats that would give them that without finding it on their own.

The red text on Kimberly's Refuge says "Cannot build: not enough Prometheus Stones", but under Production costs it says "Monsantium Deposit -1", so actually you need Monsantium and the error text is just wrong, probably some XML error (didn't look into the new XMLs yet, so can't be sure).

Glad to hear it is Monsantium, I just don't have the stones to build it. :)

Yeah, I posted this alongside with hive tech not conveying Hive buildings. Can confirm.

 

I was so confused over this when I first saw it :)
