Hello. I'm being fascinated by the finess of game's economic and production
mechnism. Simple, yet elegant. Ok, lets get to the point.
I have tried several cases with all new games.
In all cases, research point shown in reserach screen does not match
with what is on colony management screen and civ management screen.
For example,take a new game with normal tech speed and any civ with
(maybe not terran)technologist faction. To see more difference, give them
also +20% research ability. Now they have +40% reserach ability.
Start the game and put spending to 100% and spend only on research.
Don't build any thing and dont let the turn go. Now I sees that,
civ's capital has 24tp of research capacity with 100%
spend on research. Ok, so on finance management shows
that civ's expense for research is 24bc. It says also
24 on stat's and graph screen. But actually, civ has
40% bonus on research. Therefore it should gives 33
(33.6). It says so on colonymanagement and stats and
graph screen's colony management section.
Problem: It still says 24points on the top of the
Research Screen.
Ok. Is this actually giving 33points but displays 24?
Or, game is giving me only 24 points?
Or, is this so in the beggining of the game?
Yes, I tried again just before poing this and had same problem.
I want to clarify this matter.
Thank you for your time.
