I got the Secrets tech that allows you build Temple of Planet. However, it never appears as an option to build. Does anyone know why this may be? Is it similar to Skunkworks in that you cannot build it at a certain difficulty level? I have the 2.0 patch, playing "talent" level.

Same thing happens to me. I always play talent, and I never see it, weird.

I have the same problem too. I have European version (probably UK, because I bought it from Finland) so I don't have the 2.0 patch. I'm playing with librarian difficulty level and the Temple of Planet isn't in the building list.

I'm playing at Librarian level, and was only able to build temple of planet AFTER completing the voice of planet project.

I'd figured you weren't supposed to be able to get the Temple of Planet until after you built voice. . . hadn't seen anything to say one way or the other. I'll be happy, though, if I'm wrong.
One thing I *have* noticed, which I'm not sure is a bug or a part of the game arc, is that Eco-Damage SKYROCKETS after the Voice project is built, and the Temple improvements do next-to-nothing for it. Is this a bug as well? Any info is appreciated.

Yeah...I would have thought building the Voice would help...but no...worms just keep coming. I've noticed I have to yank people out of work to keep my eco damage to less than three. I have to abandon boreholes and mines and avoid building certain types of factories such as quantum converters...that is just begging for worms to come by the dozen.
About the temple, I wish that part of the building description would have mentioned the Voice being a prerequisite.

I also miss the temple in the production list - I was quite confused because I could build it at Citizen level. I've already researched all techs beginning now with transcendece.

I asked about the temple of planet problem a few days ago, and Jeffrey Morris replied he thought it was a bug and Brian was looking into it.

um.. from when I beat the game I did it through the Temple on Specialist level.
Had to build the Voice first (this then let's EVERYONE be able to build the Temple).
um.. I maybe wrong.. been awhile since I've played that game though..
