This tutorial is made in my spare time over the christmas period. More to come.

Taken from a first person view with narration. This is how I build planets, other people may have other methods.
This is not a strict manual, it is a helping hand towards building. Please do not take everything I say in this tutorial as pure 100% "need to do" but as a tip towards how to build.
I hope you enjoy.
Please leave constructive comments.

Fixes, Suggestions and note worthy comments:
- At the end of the video there is a section of writing that is snipped off from the editing. It should say "make a planet with 40-50 population" and 'planet' was snipped out.
- Fraps doesn't like recording Darkspace and will occationally freeze the program, hence the sudden and weird lag where sensor bases stop pinging.
This will be updated as reviews are posted. [ This Message was edited by: Snafu (Okkam) on 2010-12-25 20:13 ]

I'll give it a watch, simply because I have my own way of building, but want to see different approaches.
Problem is, that video is pretty big. My connection is 768kbs, it'll take an hour or so. Can you upload it to youtube? That'd make it easier to direct new folks to in any case. [ This Message was edited by: Reznor on 2010-12-25 21:22 ]

Solars, only really viable when the closest Solar to the sun receives 160-170 power+ And therefore only in double star systems (Except Tau where one of the stars produces no solar power)

It's better to build barracks right after colony on blank planet.
It's no good to build structures closely like that.
And it's always good to mine while building.

Silverlight stream (much higher quality than Youtube). Requires Silverlight (for those on Linux use Moonlight).
Could use more of these for modding ships, buying enhancements and equipping them, etc.

I'm sorry I can't hear what you say in video. Not only my english listening skill is bad, but laptop audio quality is also awful.
The nice thing is narrator is not British Idiot. He has charming voice I believe
