Military production for single planet

from Stardock Forums
IS there any way to crank the military production for just a single planet. I need my empire to focus on research but I just need 1 constructor built and I have -400 money. I just need 1 planet near my perimeter to focus on military for about 6 turns...

Thanks

No, the ratio of Military:Social:Research spending can only be changed empire-wide. Having the other planets produce "Nothing" will NOT stop them from spending the money.

Put spendings on 0 for one turn and then rushbuy?

It might take more than one turn, but that's just what I did in my most recent game to take advantage of a nearby tech resource when the alien starbase got blown away.

hmm, well in the early game i usually have no military output and just buy the ships outright when needed, and than later in the game i build my ships and purchase my socials. just done it than and i only ever made 2 trade routes all game and never had to take my slider down from 100% spending and i had loads of cash to throw around.

hint: forget about diplomacy when setting up your empire, waste of time if you ask me :)

dracko81, on small/tiny maps you can forgo diplomacy and beat the ai through alpha strikes, but it gets harder on bigger maps.
