Combining of 2 special abilities for a unit costs extra 25% in SMACX. There is an incosistency, a bug: the "free cost" abilities (like Deep Radar or Trance and ECM) are sometimes free even in combination, sometimes not. How should it be solved?
Combining 2 abilities should always raise the price of the unit.
3 (33.3%)
A "cost free" ability should never raise the price, even when combined with another ability.
In the years since our arrival, we have foolishly disrupted so many of Planet's ecosystems that entire species may vanish without our ever having understood, or even known them. We must halt this plunder, and halt it immediately, for our own survival as a species depends on our ability to strike a balance on this world.
