I am in Mars, but still somewhat new and working on the last couple of techs in the research tree.
So far, I have not found any utility to life support. The problem is that it appears the life support only discounts coins and production, not mars ore. I have plenty of coins and production. The bottle neck is mars ore. If I were to put in a lot of life support, then I would have to significantly cut my goods production. Since I would much rather have the goods than the coins or production, it makes no sense for me to build life support at this time.
My question is whether life support gets useful at some point. I suppose if I didn't need Mars goods and I did need more production and coins, then life support could be useful, but when would this be? In late Venus or something?
