One of the primary racial traits. Packet Physics (PP) races excel at building mass drivers. They are considered one of the weaker races, and are not often played in multi-player games.
Race specifications
- Starting Advantages
- Tech 4 in Energy
- Two shielded scouts
- One colony ship
- Two starting planets in non-tiny universes
- Exclusive Components
- Mass driver 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13
- Mineral packets with built-in penetrating scanner, with a range equal the square of their warp speed
- Exclusive Abilities
- Mineral packets are smaller and cheaper to build
- Sense all players' mineral packets in flight, regardless of location
- Learn the exact design of any enemy starbase that uses a mass driver to receive a packet you fling
- Planets receiving mass packets have a 50% chance of a 1% improvement (terraforming) in an environmental attribute. For every 100kT of a mineral not caught, there is also a 0.1% chance of the overall planet value improving by 1%(permaforming).
