Biodome

From Starport: Galactic Empires

Biodomes are the living centers of colonies. They are the first building in any colony, and are created by the deployment of a biodome kit. Once created, the biodome colony management screen offers a variety of social settings the owner of the colony can set to his liking.

Government type can be set, as well as a tax rate. The colonial workforce can be divided into any combination of 4 occupations: Building, Harvesting, Research, and Military Service. You can also choose which colonial structure the colony's construction workforce should build. The biodome screen also shows the current status of Colony Morale.

The colony's biodome may be upgraded twice to support larger colonist populations. For a level 1 biodome, the maximum population is 1,000 colonists. The level 2 biodome allows up to 5,000 colonists. The level 3 biodome can support up to 25,000 colonists, except on easy difficulty galaxies where it can support 10,000.
