When is a good time to start an orgy given 19% or 20% growth? And when doing so, how much pop? How large a freighter? How is the pop accumulated? I'd like some spesfic details on how to make all this work. I'm not pulling better than 14k on this and all my pop is either in transit or on planets. I've been growing in space but only during trips and on arrival.

Also what are the best hold levels? 50% 42% 33% 25%? I've been holding at around 50% though I got kinda lazy and let it climb to 60% or 70%. How should a -F IS manage its pop best? This was one of the reasons I started this thread. To know how to play -f in general.

There is plenty of that in this thread. I like Joseph's earlier summary.

In my **extremely limited** experience, I fill all my *available* good greens (50%<80%hab ) to 25% of capacity before thinking about orgies, then start building/filling the freighters until I can sustainably grow it faster in the freighter than on the world they orbit, then let the planet grow to about 42% - which gives about the same pop to lift as 25%, and the planet has terra'd itself along the way. For big greens (>80%) I try to hold them at 25% a bit longer - usually until 1 or 2 years of growth in the freighters would take it straight to ~42% and then I let a year or two of freighter growth drop to get it to that point.

(I like 42% - it's a good psychological break point for me: same growth as 25%, so I feel like I'm still getting good value. I don't like 33% - the absolute growth from that 8% gap is woeful - I'd rather have that 8% pop (say, 85K pop?) sitting on a low hab/high conc world personally. And on a breeder I get my freighter pop up quickly enough that I don't hang around 25% too long.)

So, I tend to move the freighters that are sitting over the breeders to the smaller greens (<50%) and let them fill up the planet a bit through freighter growth (not dropping the pop), since the growth of the smaller greens is 2/5ths of nothing anyh
