Point to moving the Tiqqun?

[Pie Guy]

Is there a reason you'd want to move the Tiqqun other than a change of scenery? All the ships you dispatch do all the work anyway. The Tiqqun is just home base.

Storms and cutting travel distances are the Primary reason why you'd move the Tiqqun.

If a storm is, say, covering 80% of the angles towards an anomaly that you want to send your logistics ships to in order to complete a quest-line, you're gonna need to have the Tiqqun positioned in such a way that the Logistic ships will be able to leave the Tiqqun in a trajectory that avoids most, if not all, of the storm in question... instead of running directly through the storm and risking explosion.

One thing I learned after Chapter 1 is that you really increase efficiency by moving Tiqqun close to resources you want to mine. Instead of getting ~30 resources per cargo ship every 5 or more cycles due to the round trip, you might get that much every 1 cycle or less.

When you are bleeding tons of Alloy after several jumps and opening most sectors, that time is important.

Just to state what might be obvious to some, but bit me in the arse, you may move the Tiqqun into dangerous territory by mistake and pay a price. In the third system there is a large white swathe over the left half of the map, with the Tiqqun starting on the right side. I decided to move to the left side to gather resources more quickly, but it turned out it was a cold ice storm that caused random damage to my solar panels. This was hugely annoying, knocking out power and causing me to juggle shutting down buildings while the repairs were made, then juggle powering the building back up again. Not too long after, same thing. So, save your game and be careful where you move to, the dangers may not be obvious before you move.

There will be parts of the game, where moving the Tiqqun is a matter of life and death. It is also the only way to get those hard to reach resources behind storm clouds an whatnot.
