Didn't play ES1 so no idea wheter you could already to that but it felt a bit weird to me to be able to build multiple queued buildings the same turn.

I understand the idea of production report but as a comparison with Civilization, the best you can get is the next queued building build in 1 turn the next turn.

Here you can just get multiple constructions the same turn when reaching a certain amount of production.

Is this intentional ?

Yes, you could also do that in ES1, so my guess is it must be intentional.

If you ask me that must be because you don't build planetary but system improvement instead, so multiple planets work at the same time.

Now if this also happens in single-planet systems, I haven't noticed yet but if it is, maybe it shouldn't.

ok thx I'll make sure it only happened with Holy Proliferation + building or Ark ship + building or System dev + buildings and that it did not happen also with building + building.

Can it happen with holy proliferation+Ark ship? I don't think it can. 

Firstly because they cost essence and AFAIK you cannot rush-buy essence, and secondly by the time you reach your essence threshold, that's the exact cost of an Ark.

The simple answer is Industry cost. Everything you build has a Industry cost. If you have enough industry on a system, then you can cover the cost of all the buildings in one turn. This is why you can build multiple ships in one go as well, as they have a smaller cost than most buildings. In the case of the Vodyani special improvements, this is because they have no industry cost, hence them being able to be build instantly alongside a building. The same applies to system developments. This is very much intentional, so don't think something funny is going on

There are some buildings with fixed building times, like system updates. And there are the normal buildings which can be bought, even more of them at once. Since you can convert Industry into Dust, it's only logical to convert Dust into Industry. Dust is not only a currency, it's more like a magical ressource where the magic happens :)

Yeah, not sure why this is an issue? We humans are idiots with sticks compared to the races in Endless Space 2, and yet we manage to have multiple things built even within a city, let alone planet and/or solar system. The system is fine as is, nothing to correct.
