Ok my first planet was non-active. I assume that means non active =\.

I colonized another planet right next to the 1st one and it says Solar Planet which i think means close to Solar energy meaning I could building solar stuff and get more energy from it.

Is that what they mean and what are all the different types of planets?

you should be able to have a large supply of energy on that world for your mines. the good planets should be between slots 6-12, I think if I remember right. it's been awhile.

still learning the planets myself, but some should be better at metal, crystal, or deu. depending on the world.

I beleive you are miss-interpreting things desilator. The words "non-active" underneath your planet mean that it is not currently constructing a building. When you say it had "Solar Planet" underneath it i think it said "Solar Plant". It would have also had a timer under that as well if i am correct? This means that planet is currently constructing a Solar Plant and will return to "non-active" when it is done. As for solar energy, im not sure about the plants but i know that you get more energy from Solar Sattelites the closer you are to the sun. :)

Don't. There's a first time for every player and sometimes things aren't obvious as they seem. Don't hesitate to ask a question no matter how stupid you might think it is. There's just too many buttons and options that go along with them in this game to try to learn by the seat of your pants.

So I just colonized a new planet...my current planet has about 170 total fields available...the new one has 388 total fields available. Should I think about switching my main headquarters at some point?
