i would guess not. The Capitol is more of an administrative building, it doesn't actualy do any manufacturing in and of itself.

I would tend to agree wtih Habadacus - it's a bonus to existing production, not a production in itself. I could be wrong.

thank you.it is the same for economic capital for economy multiplier bonus?all economic improvements like advanced market center adds a percentage to your tax income unlike factory which add specific manufacturing points. so placing an advanced market center on a tile with 300% bonus would give me a +75%tax revenue while placing an economic capital will add me also 400% or not?

Super Projects do NOT get a bonus from bonus tiles.

Ok, since I made the, now obvious, mistake of placing a manufacturing capital on a tile with a manufacturing bonus, how do I remove the manufacturing capital so I can place a factory on the tile?

As someone who has also been bitten by this bug, I would suggest that you should not be able to upgrade a factory to a manufacturing capital, if it isn't an upgrade. I had a factory on a 600% bonus tile on a very small planet, and when I upgraded, boom, the manufacturing goes WAY down.

Fuji, upgrades are mostly automatic. If it doesn't start to upgrade itself, it isn't an upgrade. (The exception is the NLC)

What Fuji was doing was building over his factory.

You can only have 1 capital (that you, the player builds **) so don't expect to build another if you put it in a spot you don't like (like on bonus tiles ).

**other capitals can be obtained thru conquest..

Well I've made this mistake before too, and I know plenty of other people have also. Pretty easy to do when the tile says any 'manufacturing district' built here will receive a bonus. On the surface it would seem logical that a Manufacturing Capital IS a manufacturing district. Yeah, the bonus would be outrageous which is the only thing that had me wondering a little bit before trying it. Still, I thought it would be considered a manufacturing district.

I once built one over a precursor mine. Imagine the language when I discovered the capital doesn't do anything there.
