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.
Sky farms are fantastically beautiful, with their kilometer long
networks of glass framed in grids of metal, and the sunlight
shining through jungles of vegetation inside. When one of them
catches the light, you can see the refracted beauty for miles;
they are life-giving stars on a desolate planet...gardens on
the wing.
