Question for you guys;

I have two planets that I've built space ports on, but I cannot upgrade them to passenger space ports, why not.  I have a third planet that I have been able to do this on.  Any ideas.

^Do you have an upgraded factory?  If you have a basic space port you should be able to upgrade to the passenger space port provided you have the upgraded factory.

Yep, you need to upgrade to Heavy Industry in order to build Passenger Space Ports.

I'm pretty sure that's not the problem, unless I'm missing something.

Looks like based on your screenshot that you already have it in place.  Look at the building in the upper left corner.

Yes, the basic spaceport.  At one of my other planets though, I've been able to upgrade it to a passenger.  Shouldn't I be able to upgrade this one also.

Ah, I think I see the problem.  I believe the reason you can't upgrade to a Passenger Spaceport on Origin (and probably your other colony) is because you don't have any "tourism goods" (Amazing Wildlife, Serenity, Past Civilization, etc.) there to export. 

Without tourism goods, a planet cannot build a Passenger Spaceport -- and what's more, there's no reason to.  All you'd be doing is paying higher upkeep for a more expensive facility you don't need and can't use.

Hey guys,

I've got the turns to both of our PBEM games.  I'll play them a little later on today.

No problem W8, I've been since Friday morning working on a system upgrade.  I won't be back home until tomorrow night.

Ok now that the flock is together again and I got me arse over here from Wargamer, how about we re-start the game we made ages ago with Martok, Shelldrake, Jarhead and me participating? More players are welcome of course and as I see you are already busy with a game I would understand this has to wait.
But whenever you guys want, let's restart. :D

Jarhead posted at WG that he would be interested to restart as well.
I don't think I have your addresses anymore, so PM me for those.
And everyone feel free to chime in and drop a note if you would like to participate.
A small note about pacing; my working schedule is varied, so I can't always send a turn right back. Shouldn't be a problem, though.
