Hello,
After looking through the reference guide found on coloniae.space I noticed the build costs and the production rates of the three antaura producing buildings are unbalanced
The Interstellar Pad of Thought, which doesn't require independence, has the worst production rate yet costs far more resources than the other two structures.
The Unholy Mound of Worship (requires independence) has the best production rate, as well as providing housing, is the cheapest to build and the only issue is it requires antaura to build. The building description also needs updating as it currently says it does not serve as a drop-off point yet it can collect multiple resources.
Since the interstellar pad of thought is able to create antaura before independence this essentially makes the shrine of mystics obsolete as once you go independent people will just build the cheaper and faster producing Unholy Mound of Worship.
To make the buildings make more sense the build costs between the interstellar pad of thought and unholy mound of worship should be swapped (apart from the antaura requirement).
Let me know what you think!
