Worker Cap

[thelazyhermit]

Is there a technology I'm missing? I'm capped at 48 workers. Kinda frustrating, as if I don't have enough workers I'll not be able to keep up maintenance or fend of attackers.

Hmm, have you been building additional worker hubs? That's what caps your workers in my experience. Are you being limited by your overall building limit perhaps? Researching the bottom row of the Engineering tech tree helps to increase your overall structure limit.

Sadly I have plenty of drone hubs, but the hubs will have a row of XXX's on them. Text on the hubs will say "increase the number of drones your base can support". I have more drone hubs than drones.

Oh, I'm so sorry. I might have misunderstood your question... (It's been a busy day for us over here!) when you say drones, do you mean assault drones, maintenance drones, or workers? They all have their own various mechanics and limitations.

I still wonder if perhaps you're being limited by your overall structure limit? Unless players research the Engineering tech tree, they're limited to 50 structures.

It was worker drones. I could have, say....73 worker hubs, but be capped at 48 worker drones. I have already researched for greater structure limit.

And I appreciate your feedback, I didn't realize it was a dev. You're doing great work.
