3.14 Climates
3.14.1 Basic principles
The climate of a planet has a strong influence on a private station. In essence, the climate influences the following factors:
Food production per farmer, Maximum population at the station, Resulting pollution per production point, Operating costs of buildings.
3.14.2 Climates List
The list of climates, sorted from bad to good:
| Climate | Food | Max population | Pollution | Building costs | Note |
| Dead | 0 | 3 | Very high | Very high | Maximum population including all research is 3. |
| Inferno | 0 | Very low | High | High | |
| Radiated | 0 | Very low | Very high | Medium | |
| Toxic | 0 | Very low | Very high | High | |
| Barren | 0 | Very low | Very high | Normal | |
| Desert | 1 | Low | High | Medium | From here food production possible. |
| Steppe | 1 | Medium | Elevated | Medium | |
| Arid | 1 | Medium | Elevated | Normal | |
| Tundra | 1 | Medium | Elevated | Normal | |
| Jungle | 2 | Medium | Low | Medium | From here good food. |
| Swamp | 2 | Medium | Low | Normal | |
| Ocean | 2 | Medium | Low | Normal | |
| Terran | 2 | High | Low | Normal | |
| Gaia | 3 | Very high | Very low | Normal | Maximum Nutrition. |
3.14.3 Terraforming
There are 4 research projects that influence the climate. Building the building also corresponds to the transformation of the planet. Attention to the module Terraforming: Any further use of terraforming doubles the costs.
The following table describes the possibilities of terraforming. On the left is the "start" -climate, in the table there is the possible end-climates.
| Shield (all variants) | Terraforming | Improved terraforming | Gaia transformation |
