Construction ships
Construction ships posted in Spaceships & Vehicles forum comment posted by derek_holland I was rereading The Worldtamer's Handbook and one thing popped out at me- the reliance on wind and hydro power for colonies and bootstrapped worlds (i.e. those with people who are uplifted into civilization). It got me thinking about infrastructure starships, especially power plants and factories. IOW this thread.
Infrastructure ships could be built as blanks, those that are easy to modify to the needs of the worlds they will land on. The downside is these are more expensive than dedicated ships, so it depends on finances, local hazards (environmental and hostiles), and political will to determine which sorts of infrastructure ships are used for a particular colony.
