After reading that article and your collective comments, I've tweaked my race a little and still need feedback.

Well, I always build my race to the universe I'll be playing in. I've only played 5 games with a CA, and 3 of those were with -f's. Another was a <grudge> match to prove who was right on a design philosophy (TT vs non-TT CA). So, my first hand experience is limited. I did play a TT CA in Bug2, 11 players in a huge packed. My design differed quite a bit from yours.
I opted for:
CA
IFE, TT, OBRM, LSP, RS
grav .55 to 1.8
temp -84 to 76
rad 31 to 71
1 in 12 growth 18%
1/1000
12/9/10/no
12/3/10
con, weap, bio cheap, others expensive
0 points left
Admittedly, it wasn't a great design. I would probably go with 19%, drop mine eff to 11 and click the G box. I could narrow the habs a little too, if needed, but I didn't like it narrower than 1 in 16 with a HG chasis.
I only managed 26k@Y50, and 313k@2499 with 3600+ Nubs, when the game ended. I actually built a few more Nubs than that, but "sold" them to another race for just minerals. Kind of a weird political maneuver to keep 4 other races busy beating on each other while I dealt with my other border disputes.
The lackluster start was due mainly to a pop drop battle and war starting in the mid 20's against an aggressive JOAT. I did my best to only commit what was necessary, and continue my growth else where, but you should be able to beat this hands down in a test bed.

The deal is that the hab is 22 clicks from the edge I think, which is enough for TT20 at bio 17.

For a medium or less, that might be sufficient. Really depends on the universe size, though. I like TT30...

19% isn't much off 20%, should have decent pop growth.
I increased the cost per factory as IMO the ramp up isn't as important as the end result, but to afford the techs the way they are there's less factories per 10k pop than I'd like. Mines could be better also, especially because of O |
