Allow to buy more things with influence in outposts

I also found the harbor thing a bit of an exploit - if you have a culture with a harbor EQ, you can build a ton of them for basically a small amount of influence - compared to how much it would cost if you built it with production in a city. I mean it's a ridiculous difference.

But I still upvote your idea, just to make leaving outposts outside of the city more viable. Not everything should in a city until later eras (if we consider outpoists to be not fully controlled areas).

I do agree with your remark to some extent, having rushed fishing with the Phoenicians, and then played the Carthaginians quite some times.
I think the price should go up with the number of things bought. First a Phoenician EQ? Ok, small price. Then a Carthaginians one? Double it. Third a Swahili one? Increase it again. Then a normal harbor? It should still be pricey.

And thanks for the upvote.

Interesting, to me the influence insta-building feels exploitative and way to OP. So I agree but only if the influence costs will be much higher than they are now. I also wouldn’t mind if the instant building goes away.
