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.
Planet's atmosphere, though a gasping death to humans and most animals, is paradise for Earth plants. The high nitrate content of the soil and the rich yellow sunlight bring an abundant harvest wherever adjustments can be made for the unusual soil conditions.
