This is still my first (eternal) game, but I notice colony admins used to have multiple skills, thus giving some variety and interest in finding and hiring different ones. So far I'm only seeing dozens of "industrial planning" skills, and since they are everywhere there is no incentive to look. I feel like the game would be much more fun with more variety. Is it just my level of progression, or have they been stripped down?

They have been stripped out. Only alpha core has the additional skill that effectively have all the old skill effects.

Hopefully as a placeholder for improvements, because this is a gaping hole in the game imo. I love the idea of different admins for different needs, and a game component of seeking them out and hiring them a`la captains would be much appreciated.

I believe Alex did mention the skills were removed only temporary and will be added back in a future version so don't worry

tbh in the older versions, the only reason you never bought admins was cause you could find the double-skill ones as rare drops while exploring. In this version, it made it alot more worthwhile to buy admins when there was no distinction between the ones you could buy or find.

Double skills would promote powergaming, yes. But I'm asking to have a variety of single skills. Or we could have something more along the lines of Captains, where there is a wide variety, but those could have the same number of skills too.

You didn’t play enough. Double skill admins do spawn in regular markets at about 3% rate of all admins spawning at a planet.

In current version? I've never seen any skill other than Industrial Planning. Unless I was overlooking one with a +2 in that skill.

In previous version. I always check comm list for admins since I can’t find any double skill admins in cryo pods.
