Hi!

I've currently disabled insta-terraform for CA and made the OA weigh 160kt and cost 500 resources (minerals unchanged).

IMO 500 res for an OA is an overkill. Remember that CA can not do normal terra. They'd need to invest 3000 res into 6 clicks of terra other races would do for 600. And those 3000 res are usually the sum of all terra costs one race does on a planet in a game. I'd say removing instaforming is enough. Leave OAs as they are, CA will still need to bring them to every new planet, and that's quite a nasty task.

Since you can also change the RW points for a race then I'd suggest the following settings:

PRT   RW  diff. comment
PP   +60  +97   to buy better mine eff.
AR   +40  +67   to buy ISb
HE   +35  +45   they're a bit too weak
SD   +35  -18   a bit to cheap for their strenght
SS   +25  +63   need better econ
WM   +20  +32   need a bit better econ
IS   +10  -26   a bit to cheap for all what they get
CA     0    0   same, already lost instaforming
IT   -35  +22   a bit too expensive
JoaT -50  -75   so they take NAS without too much additional points

Most econ races lost their RW points, JaoT the most. OTOH those weak/least played races got some improvement, PP the most, as IMO it NEEDS more minerals to use packets. If I could change code I'd leave its RW points the same, but 'd give it built-in 10% or 20% better mine eff.
Well, I may forget something, but at least those points are the first approximation to start with.

BTW would you mind posting the way you did those changes? There are many coders in our community that could surely use that with great benefit to the rest of us.
BR, Iztok
