Atmospheric Condensation is also required to terraform Inferno planets, so only the Orthins can do something with them: other races have to hope they can get some Tarib colonists instead. Atmospheric Condensation combined with Energy Refocusing let you terraform into Iceball planets, but these technologies are locked to Orthin.Coral Bloom lets you terraform into Coral planets, but this technology is locked to Phidi.Hive Worlds lets you terraform into Hive planets but this technology is racially locked to be only available to Ashdar (both types), Gremak, and Yoral.Terraforming lets you terraform planets to Garden and Island.Atmosphere Generation lets you terraform barren planets into the Arid and Glacier types.Terraforming options appear if they'd increase a planet's max pop figure with either the current population mix or your empire's main race.
Nevertheless, here are the rules as far as I can tell, based on an ongoing game that I'm using to figure stuff out (Easy difficulty, 99 stars, basically won already) and from the Orders\a file and whichever other files seem relevant based on a Shift-Ctrl-F search (but I am wholly unfamiliar with the Lua syntax, since all previous programming experience being in C-family languages). And yes, I know that a complete overhaul is planned, so any information about how it works now is hopefully going to be obsolete later. Terraforming is probably the most puzzling part of the game right now I needed to write things down to get how it works, so I figure it could be useful to other people.
