Subject: [PATCH] changed cost of various structures. money is limited,
 shouldnt be wasted on pointless things that take extra time building for no
 reason. Like, power stations, barracks. Some changes inspired by original
 dune 2000 stats. Other buildings left as is, because we're not trying to copy
 the original game. Light factory made super cheap to distinguish it from
 heavy factory. It should make poor-man's units, relatively quickly. Things
 that sort of suffice at countering better heavy units like tanks, while
 pursuing a different strategy. No buildings cost more than $2000, because
 it's not really necessary to have things be that expensive (from what I can
 tell). It just wastes time and cuts down possibilities for strategy by making
 certain things out of reach and forcing everyone into similar strategies.
 Research facilities that unlock units (outpost, high tech factory, research
 facility) all ~1000. Starport made 2000 so that it's not too cheap since it's
 good, but not inaccessible as a mid-game strategy.
