++* High mass teleportation researched, and spoken to Boso Ta afterwards
++* Have a module to construct M and S ships on the HQ (not required to actually start terraforming but needed for subsequent progression)
++* Have storage capabilities for container, solid and liquid wares on the HQ (not required to actually start terraforming but needed for subsequent progression)
++* Accept a terraforming mission
++* Teleport the HQ to the sector specified by the mission briefing
++* Open the terraforming menu (this is new icon at the top of the screen) and select a project to work on
++Once started, construction and delivery are automatic as long as the required resources are provided.

In addition, they are controlled by specialised AI systems which lack the capability to alter their own programming. This makes them a safe, if less effective, version of the original Terraformer designs.

--
-- <t id="1340">Fertilise Soil
--
-- <t id="1341">With a healthy microbiome, we can begin to make the land arable. This requires soil with sufficient drainage, the right pH, necessary nutrients in plant-accessible form, and all of that at a depth sufficient for roots to take hold. A significant effort, to be sure, but absolutely necessary before any large scale settlement can take place.

--
-- <t id="1351">Planting and cultivating large arboreal areas does not just make for picturesque postcards; it can also greatly contribute to a stable ecological system.

--
-- <t id="1401">Several layers of self-repairing sheets made from an advanced plastic keep the air inside and maintain a temperate climate, while shielding from dangerous radiation and even micrometeorites. Many complex pieces of technology interoperate to create a stable, even somewhat comfortable environment inside.
--
-- <t id="1410">Habitation Module
--
-- <t id="1411">Rows of sleeping capsules attached to a common living area and shared facilities make this a quick and cheap way of creating living accommodation. It doesn't offer much in the way of privacy, though.
--

--
-- <t id="1511">An especially intense and gruelling training regime, specifically tailored to an individual's talents, with a reputation for killing its students. This reputation, while actively fostered, is undeserved thanks to state-of-the-art safety mechanisms.

--
-- <t id="1600">Clinic
--
-- <t id="1601">A state-of-the-art hospital with diagnosis, treatment and care facilities. This will not only increase the population's well-being, but also means that we will have first right of refusal on providing shipments of medical supplies in perpetuity.
--
-- <t id="1602">Send Medical Supplies
--
-- <t id="1603">The clinic's stockpile is running low, so they're asking for a new shipment of supplies.
--
-- <t id="1610">Research Campus
--
-- <t id="1611">A centre for learning and groundbreaking, if not usually practical research, this will be sure to attract bright minds and provide ample opportunities to get a share of those government grants.
--
-- <t id="1612">Send Research Materials
--
-- <t id="1613">A research group has received a sizeable grant and is asking for various materials to carry out experiments.
--
-- <t id="1620">Bank
--
-- <t id="1621">You've got to spend Credits to make Credits. But what to do if you don't have any to start with? Why, get a loan, of course! This bank will put you in contact with innovative entrepreneurs, champing at the bit for a chance to disrupt the market.
--
-- <t id="1622">Fund Start-Up
--
-- <t id="1623">Conventional wisdom says that nine out of ten innovations fail. Success usually pays out enough to make the risks worth it, but you still shouldn't bet your entire fortune on it. Still a lot better than playing the lottery, though.
--

--
-- <t id="1660">Art College
--
-- <t id="1661">An institution that teaches a wide diversity of artistic crafts, but also frequently organises exhibitions and other cultural events.
--
-- <t id="2000">(Xenon Terraforming Projects)
--
-- <t id="2010">Claim District
--
-- <t id="2011">Using a system of precisely pulsed EMP bursts, we can disable the Xenon units in this area and then destroy them with targeted bombings. This leaves the infrastructure intact for potential future use.
--
-- <t id="2020">Destroy District
--
-- <t id="2021">We can level this district with a considerable quantity of explosives. It may be cheaper than the alternative, and make it harder for the Xenon to retake control, but it will also mean the loss of very useful infrastructure.
--
-- <t id="2030">Under Xenon control
--
-- <t id="2031">Xenon drones regularly patrol this district, preventing us from passing through it.
--
-- <t id="2040">Liberated
--
-- <t id="2041">The Xenon presence has been curbed for the time being, making it safe to pass through.
--
-- <t id="2050">Destroyed
--
-- <t id="2051">Without anything to protect, the Xenon are ignoring this ruined district for the time being, making it safe to pass through.
--
-- <t id="2060">Habitation District
--
-- <t id="2061">Impossibly tall skyscrapers, each one providing ample living space for millions of inhabitants.
--
-- <t id="2070">Commerce District
--
-- <t id="2071">Situated on and just below the surface, this district has the perfect infrastructure for all kinds of shops and services.
--
-- <t id="2080">Farming District
--
-- <t id="2081">Cascading tiers of fully automated fields, efficiently irrigated and supplied with ample sunlight via a complex system of mirrors and lenses, provide more than enough yield to feed even the maximum population of the habitation district it's attached to.
--
-- <t id="2090">Administration District
--
-- <t id="2091">In addition to office space for the governing body, this district also houses the local data centre.
--
-- <t id="2100">Industrial District
--
-- <t id="2101">Massive refineries automatically extract and process minerals from the ground. These get distributed to the surrounding factories as needed, controlled by a governing AI.
--
-- <t id="2110">Recreation District
--
-- <t id="2111">Theatres, bars, parks, VR arcades, zoos, sporting grounds, restaurants, water parks, concert halls. These are just some of the many venues this district is designed to house.
--
-- <t id="2120">Subvert AGI Core
--
-- <t id="2121">Our coding experts say that they have devised a theoretical method of sending remote commands to the Xenon AGI core. Due to its inherent mutable nature, they are unable to predict the success of any given attempt, and have just given me an estimation of "more likely than rolling a crit(crit meaning "critical hit" as used in a role-playing game) in Gunners &amp; Goners". If successful, we will tell the AGI and all of its drones to self-delete, leaving the entire area Xenon-free.
--
-- <t id="2130">Detonate Reactor
--
-- <t id="2131">Now that we have access, it just takes the push of a button to level the entire area, and all Xenon presence within it. This will destroy all connected districts, so we'll have to start from scratch if we aim to have people living here.
--
-- <t id="2140">Xenon Reclaim
--
-- <t id="2141">Xenon combat drones are mobilising to retake this district. They will soon reclaim it unless we do something to stop them.

--
-- <t id="2170">Bombard Xenon Drones
--
-- <t id="2171">We can stop their efforts by simply carpet-bombing the drones.
--
-- <t id="2172">This will undoubtedly level this district, though.
