The Azurian
Conclusion at bottomI am not sure which topic this should go under. But i guess this seems appropriate since it involves trans-human techs. Specifically Aquaculture, Vertical Farming, Ecology, Cloning and Artificial Evolution. These techs are where the crops, animal farms, animal traps, fishing and hunting stuff go obsolete. So much so it makes them very abrupt. I am wondering if some should either never go obsolete, be replaced by another building or go obsolete at another tech. For instance crops could be enhanced by vertical farming (and other techs). What do you guys think?
Note the only reason they went obsolete is because Afforess said that they should when making the Domesticated Animal mod and Farming mod. This is not RoM/AND anymore and thus we can change it to fit C2C.
Aquaculture..____Cultivation, ex Salmon Cultivation,
Ecology= Organic______,(plants)...Pastured_____(animals) example Organic Apples, Pastured Pigs [a better word ca be used..Uncaged..Free Roaming..]
They should be replaced by new "buidings", which are upgraded to new forms.
Cloning..they should be replaced by Clone Factories..aka Pig clone Factory, Fish Clone Factory..
Ecological Engineering (plants)..genetically engineered ex. Gtech Apples
Vertical Farming,animal farms, fishing and hunting should be replaced by Deliplants, and Animals should be grouped..aka Bovine Deliplant, fish Deliplant, Bird Deliplant. Animal Farms = Manufacturer . Traps = ___Distributor.
Deliplants
Technology > Application > Agriculture
Science > Biology > Botany
Culture and Society > Daily Life > Food
Deliplants are splice or neogen plants. The originals were designed to provide equivalents to the animal products once consumed by human baselines on Old Earth: not only the muscle or fatty tissue and various edible organs of various animal species, but also other products such as eggs, milk, blood or cheese. The name was intended to suggest the Late Information Age English words "delicatessen" and "delicious."

Ill add a new Tech betweeen Vertical Farming and Artificial Evolution for crops called Aeroponics. Along with Accelerated Germination the crops can be called Xtech _____. ex.. Xtech Apples. [X=Extreme Genetic Enginnering]
A low mass method of growing plants.
Aeroponics, like hydroponics, is a technique for growing plants without the use of soil. It has long been known that plants absorb nutrients as simple ions in water and that soil only acts as a reservoir for the nutrients and water. If the nutrient levels of a plant's water supply is artificially maintained and the water directly applied to its root system, soil is no longer required for the plant to thrive. In the aeroponic method, water is applied as a mist to the root system of the plant.
Artificial Evolotion..replaced by Baccas...aka Bovine Bacca, Fish Bacca, Bird Bacca
animal traps = Bacca Incubator animal farms Bacca Laboratory
Technology > Technology Type or Material > Organic/Biotech
Family of crops derived from the tobacco plant through gengineering during the interplanetary era and later. Designed for use in space hydroponics, different strains produce livestock feed, vegetables, drugs and decorative flowers. Especially common is Qianxuesen, a bacca vegetable eaten by terragen bionts boiled or mashed.

crops replaced by Nanoseeds, ex..Apple Nanoseed
Nanotech "seed", a self-contained and sealed capsule containing assemblers and replicators either pre-programmed with templates or instructed from an external source. The seed is "planted" on a substrate, and activated with energy or a nutrient spray. It then grows into the desired product, using locally acquired resources and ambient energy (e.g. sunlight) or - in the case of some large nanoseeds, a small amat battery.
And later..Meatshrooms...ex. Bovine Meatshroom, Fish Meatshroom..Animal Traps= _______Spore Animal Farms = Tissue Bank
.he taste, texture, and nutritional qualities of animal flesh if they are cooked, or in some cases even if they are still raw. They are of ancient derivation; meatshrooms first became widespread during the Interplanetary Age, and have formed a part of the diet of many a human, as well as of many other omnivorous or carnivorous biont Terragen clades, ever since.
Meatshrooms were part of the second wave of gengineered innovations from baseline fungal stocks, following on some more moderately gengineered varieties that had been slight adaptations of baseline species. Meatshrooms were intended to provide a replacement or alternative for animal foods. This proved easier to accomplish in fungi than in plants, since many fungal fruiting bodies already had some meat-like traits. For instance, the "ox tongue" mushroom in its baseline form tastes remarkably like liver when cooked and Asian cuisine had a long tradition of producing meat-like dishes from various other fungi. The gengineers hoped to meet culinary demand for meat products without the high costs and ethical and legal issues of intensive meat production from entire animals or the costs of support structures for tissue cultures. They also intended that the fungi be integral to waste management systems in the increasingly crowded cities of Earth and the tightly cycled artificial ecosystems of the new orbital habs and other extraterrestrial colonies.

for crops..Endurasoy
Interplanetary age gengineered edible grain. A genetic blend of baseline soy and Cis-Lunar neogen plants, endurasoy is high in protein, fiber, and vitamins, and resistant to almost all known diseases and pests. Although its robustness makes it indispensable as a high yield plant, it can disrupt ecosystems on low and medium tech biospheres if not kept in check.
