Capturing a planet with a cactus will award points to the captor (CaptureScore), and give a penalty to the cactus owner (LostScore). Losing a planet entirely gives a different penalty (DeadScore).
**If KeepCactus=No,** the cactus will be destroyed and that's it.
**If KeepCactus=Yes,** a stump will remain. The stump will continue producing small amounts of Tequila for the new planet owner and a penalty for the original builder (TurnPlusScore, TurnMinusScore, TurnOwnerScore). If enabled (RebuildCactus), a new cactus can be built atop the stump.
Capturing a stump does not give any points.
Building a cactus is therefore worthwhile if you are sure to keep that planet long enough that it produces more Tequila than you'd pay for losing it.
