Sounds as if you never really figured it out, and perhaps you don’t care anymore.

No, no, I still care. I wonder if it’s the sort of thing where it’ll look really straightforward once it gets explained to me.

@belouski

For anyone that might care - Size 16 means the planet allows 16 districts to be built. Without any special features, you would be limited to 16 city districts, minus any blockers. The special features allow you to build special districts other than city districts. However, you are free to pave over all the special features with city districts and still wind up with 16 city districts. Build one farm however, and you are down to 15 city districts.

Okay, so what you seem to be saying is:

planet size + special features - blockers = available districts

But that’s not what I’m seeing at all. And I’m still not sure how city districts figure into the equation. For instance, what can you tell from looking at this screen?

The Planetary Features box on the right has a total of +19 max districts from special features and -3 districts from blockers. Can you parse for me how that translates into the numbers in the screenshot?

EDIT: I’m going to move this into the Stellaris thread. Hope no one minds.
