The dreaded "I accidentally hid the research topic" strikes again.

It is unfortunately not in the hidden section
What a glamorous disaster

But it's such a cool and must have feature.
Everybody will be using it all the time.
How could we even play a mod with more than 10 research topics before.
Oh my.
Let's bother Meridian some more to implement plenty more such killer QoL features.

/irony off
This is mostly consequence of wrong MMB/RMB behavior btw.

May be hide feature should be disabled by default in .cfg, at least for research?

You're missing a facility with Culture service, e.g. Mess Hall. Also, Back to School requires Library service, which is different.

I've been assuming I need to keep my SAM sites stocked with Stingray missiles by manufacturing them independently and sending them to the site.   Do I actually have to do this?

No, base defence installations don't use ammo.

I'm amazed you had the spare laser lenses for all those missiles. :D

Base defeses could use ammo, it's just that in X-Piratez none do.

Ha. thanks guys.  I D/Ad a lot of lasers to get the lenses, but I've got a lot left too.

I guess if you've already got a good 10-20 of your own Custom Lasrifles you don't need much else. :D

Though personally I'd rather use them for Lancer Missiles than Stingrays :D

I'm also like "thank goodness" it doesn't use ammo for a base defence; that would change a mediocre base element into a very undesirable one, at least for me, considering the economical cost of making your own missiles. Not to mention I already feel like I don't have enough space with 6 bases with the all the facilities XPZ needs. :D
