The System Architect is a career that involves system colonisation to develop and utilize a star system.
Overview
The architect owns 1 or more star systems and develops it by placing facilities such as a starport, planet ports and settlements. The facilities determine the economy type such as high tech or agribusiness. You can create new civilizations and expand a Power's influence.
