If this has already been covered, please point me to the correct thread as I did have a look around to find a similar thread but was unsuccessful.

I was wondering if there is going to be purging of population implemented into the game. Playing through and having all the different races with their bonuses is awesome because you can specialize planets based on pops (I adore that you can reallocate pops onto other planets within the system too). However there is one race (so far) that I have always despised because of the depleted mechanic (you know which one ;P ). Personally in my games, I like setting up the long term advantages instead of the short term payout. If there are Cravers on the planet, its going to quickly deplete the planet (depending on how many pops) and be a shell of its former glory, which for me, is going to drive me insane.

Perhaps it could create unhappiness within the empire (or system) for pops that you were to purge. And even higher unhappiness if you were to purge your own starting race pops to make room for other desirable pops (like the Dust generating Lumeris for example).

Hello,

We are currently working on features linked to population management. You won't be able to purge population as you describe it but you'll be able to get rid of annoying population in a more subtle way :)

Cheers

I also approve!! Cant wait to see how this will be implemented. Thanks for clarifying Meedoc! Should be fun trying to get rid of those pesky Cravers on the sly.

Well, just go DotE on Auriga in Craver space, boys :)

Haha this is gold!

That arises lots of questions.... Hope we'll se the next patch.

Good ideas, good job and lots of potential in what you did with population.
