Tc generation: none

Disables TC generation. Instead, players start with a command center (on land) or capital ship (in space) containing a worker/technician, and a resource gatherer/supply ship next to it.
Resource gatherers and supply ships are expensive vehicles/buildings/spaceships (depending on race and land/space) that only serve to increase building capacity as a tc would​, and​ must be built by workers/technicians.
Command centers and capital ships are even more expensive, but powerful and can build anything a tc or mega building could. They count as mega buildings.
Production of both is enabled, allowing players to expand their base from a production based system, rather than an exploratory based system.
Mainly intended for space, where it's reasonable to suggest a fleet must be self sufficient and must do without planetary resources. Instead, specific ships gather resources, collect energy, and grow food to supply the needs of the fleet as it moves.
These ships would be almost as fast as the rest of the fleet. 3 speed if compared to SwS, which makes it much slower than fighters, but as fast as any other big ship. This means fighters and fast, light bombers would be very important to chase down a fleeing enemy fleet.
