Introduction

Перевод на русский язык - Галактик

Endless Space has 12 types of planets (not including asteroid belts). Each planet type has an associated approval rating. Gas giants have a -20 approval negative effect and lush terrestrial planets have no effect on approval rating. Planet types also have bonuses for Food, Industry, Dust and Science (FIDS). The in-game icons for each is: Approval

, Food

, Industry

, Dust

and Science

.

Terraforming requires researching technologies than can be found on the bottom of the Technology Tree under Exploration and Expansion. Terraforming to Class I and II planets requires access to special resources. Tundra planets require Adamantian. Arid Planets require Siderite.
All Class I planets require access to Quadrinix.

Quick Reference

This quick reference guide groups the different planet types by their primary bonuses. The top row shows the Class V planets, which are gas giant planets. The second row has Class IV, followed by Class III and Class II. The bottom row has Class I planets, which are lush terrestrial planets. Once all the proper technologies are researched, terraforming can be performed between any row and the one above or below it. Planet types on the same row can also be terraformed.

Example #1:

A system contains a Helium planet that needs to be converted to an Arctic planet to reduce the negative Approval effect but keep the Science bonus. If the Helium planet is colonized and the correct technologies are known (Deuyivan Construction, Atmospheric Engineering and Low-Temp Hydration), the following transformation can occur:

Helium --> Barren --> Arctic

Example #2:

A Tundra planet's Industry bonus was helpful to improve a system but now more Dust is required to support it. The Tundra planet can be terraformed to an Hydrogen planet with the correct technologies (Low-Temp Hydration, Graviton Manipulation and Deuyivan Construction):

Tundra --> Arctic --> Lava --> Hydrogen

Example #3:

Late in the game a new solar system is colonized with two huge gas giant planets; one Methane and the other Hydrogen. These planets would make excellent Jungle planets in order to support a higher population with a focus on Industry. There are several terraforming routes to take but here are two that would work with the right technologies (Graviton Manipulation, Soil Revivification, Low-Temp Hydration, Exotic Thermodynamics and Mass Hydration) and access to the right resources (Adamantian and Quadrinix):

Methane --> Lava --> Arctic --> Tundra --> Jungle
Hydrogen --> Lava --> Desert --> Tundra --> Jungle

Technology Requirements

Terraforming can be performed after researching the appropriate technology in the Exploration and Expansion branch of the technology tree. The technologies listed below are required to terraform a planet into the named planet type.

Class V Planets

Deuyivan Construction - Methane, Hydrogen and Helium planet types

Class IV Planets

Graviton Manipulation - Lava planet type

Atmospheric Engineering - Barren planet type

Class III Planets

Soil Revivification - Desert planet type

Low-Temp Hydration - Arctic planet type

Class II Planets

Exotic Thermodynamics - Tundra planet type

Mass Particle Displacement - Arid planet type

Class I Planets

Complex Regulated Systems - Terran planet type

Mass Hydration - Jungle and Ocean planet types

Thanks for the guide, very good

Helpful, thanks!

Tbh i'm playing this game for years now and i still don't know why you should terraform and when.

best bulliet target 28 січ. 2016 о 2:15

terra form to incresse the yeild. it's not that hard. any of the type 1 are the best you can get (double the citizens) and they can hav way more active bounses and end in hundreds if not thousand for the entire system.

americanman_4_life 15 листоп. 2015 о 19:09

So... just to be clear, when you get to mid or late game, you can Terraform to change certain system, to balance all the bonuses of system, and become a stronger system?

Or do you terraform various systems, to the strength of one Bonus?? I mean, do you have one system all science? One system all Production? One system all Dust?? if that makes ense. Just carious. I'm stuck still trying to make sense of the terraforming challenges.

You answered alot about the how, and what it does... but not the why. Why you terraform?

valentinian1 15 лип. 2015 о 5:13

Very helpful. I'm an old MOO2 player who thought that teriforming went one direction only. Now I see the chart is split. At the top go for gas giants, and at the bottom jungle and terran.

QueerventureTime 14 берез. 2015 о 22:11

I'd love to know the output calculations for each planet type at max population/improvements/research/etc. if possible. Great guide though!

That One Strange Fellow 7 січ. 2015 о 0:05

During my testing, I have found that by late-late-game Jungle worlds with Hyper-Scale Farms produce the most production/dust(if converted over). This would be because of the abundence of Food upgrades (doubling Food output anyone?) and the Food->Industry converter. At which point systems can give extremely large amounts of production and/or dust for the late game. I'm not sure about early game though, Class V seems to be very powerful during the mid game with Class III or IV being best for IDS early game.

Lichlord9333 6 листоп. 2014 о 10:03

Class 4 or 5 planets are still the best to have around in endgame they just produce a load more of FIDS but population wise their not big however so some improvements are less good consider wisely what to take and what to skip.

To give you an example of a system purely made of class 4s for indutrial output see here
*note* this is like extremely end game in a huge galaxy I was earning of the thousand dust a turn...

Perfect guide to have open constantly for quick reference. Also the tier list for the planets looks like it would be included as a glossy reference handout in the box. Be nice to have the fids details somewhere too, still the best guide for getting the most of out of your planets though
