Allright, I apoligize if this is old hat or anything, I'm kind of new at this.
Anyway, I'm noticing that particularly in the late game, a planet loaded with factories, supported by starbases, then set to focus on research will produce more research then a world equally loaded with actual research building. It's bad enough that I've got planets pumping out 8000+ military hammers, and I have to wonder if they are really supposed to be able to refocus to produce 2500+ beakers, when even my absolute best research world can't touch that amount.
Perhaps it's just that the industrial sector produces so much, that even after the shave down for refocusing producing, it's still outproducing discovery spheres. But I can't help but wonder if it's supposed to be doing this.
Thoughts anyone?
