Better Starbase Economies

Details This is a economic rebalance for Starbases and orbital resources. It is jointly inspired by the approach taken to starbases in Stellaris Immortal and, to a lesser degree, by the approach to orbital deposits in Alphamod: Sparsity. It is designed to make your choices around starbases more consequential. In essence this mod makes the following changes: dramatically reduces the frequency of orbital deposits (by 50%). Many systems will have no orbital deposits at all. In order to assist the AI and to avoid slowing down the very early game, starting system deposits are unchanged; introduces various Starbase modules which, when stacked, have the potential to dramatically enhance the quality of deposits; introduced various Starbase buildings to further support and enhance those modules. This mod is not dependent on, but is designed to be played with my Wild Space mods (see below). The level of orbital resources spawned and ability to scale these with Starbases is balanced as against a Galaxy where there will be less available "space" for economic exploitation. GPM is listed as required. In fact this mod will work without it, but without the extra deposits and modifiers added by GPM the level of orbital resources will be considerably less than intended. Without its enhanced deposits, or those from other mods, you'll also significantly reduce one of the best bits about this mod - discovering particularly rich deposits spawned by rare anomalies, and knowing that you're now going to target that system for your main mining / research base. Wild Space mods Compatability Compatability with orbital deposits added by GPM and Real Space is built in. If you have any other mods which add orbital deposits that you'd like compatability with, please post in the pinned discussion. Can't promise anything, but if I use those mods too, or it doesn't look too time consuming - I'll probably do it at some point. Wouldn't advise using with anything that modifies Starbase buildings and mod
