Idea: Merging planetary production

[enpi]

MOO4, as imperfect it is now, has an interesting system to transfer wrench points from one planet to another in your empire. You have to build a special administration building (which is available by a medium to late game technology) on a planet and then a button appears which let you determine: "transfer the production of this planet to planet X".

This is one of hated "features".

really? What do players have against it?

They say it's boring. Does not eliminate micromanagement, but turns it into a series of repetitive "automated" actions.

yeah. what I have said. such a system could not reduce micromanagement. Only merging of planet production queues into a single one (in an intelligent way without creating an imbalance) could do it.
