Terra-forming and Oceans and Aliens

Hi - I just wanted to throw out a few thoughts/questions:

- The official website mentions terraforming - is that something that will be implemented in the beta and done with formers?

- Will there be ocean cities?? What about ocean resources besides food?

- I get frustrated with my formers taking a lot of damage when trying to clear fungus - maybe there can be a device that negates or minimizes fungus damage and makes creatures less aggressive toward a unit that has it? (Call it an adaptive alien pheromone device).

Terraforming is at the golden Era. You can improve/deprove the value of a tile. Desert -> Grasland.
But you can't change the landscape itself, not plains -> Mountains.
I get frustrated with my formers taking a lot of damage when trying to clear fungus -
At the Blue Era you get a device to heal others at the same tile too. You can assign a trooper to follow the former to protect and heal it up.
At the Golden Era you get a device to allways heal even after movement/combat.
Don't forget to update the formers armor.
