It would be quite useful if the rings were first researched at about the tech level they are now (maybe at least with space science if not further), but only work on the same planet, then another research to teleport to a ship in orbit, then another research to teleport to a ring anywhere else, the latest of which should be gated by promethium if possible.
Relatedly, it would be quite nice to put what 'research level' the rings should be introduced at, anywhere from how it is now to the 3 other inner planets to aquilo science to promethium science as a config, so it could fit in our games tiering better? :-)
Would be nice for power usage to scale based on the 'distance' as well (just 2 'levels' would be fine, same planet/in-orbit and outside of that), configurable would be nice as well (we'd ramp up power usage between worlds (and ships not in orbit) to probably 1TW to give a proper workout to our power systems).
(Our server is a fairly hardmode server, lots of tech scaling so when we do manage to get something it feels effective and we have time to distribute it among the many planets factories before the next research completes, this being so early seems to trivialize a lot of tech that would feel better 'before' it.)
