Hiya,
I'd guess it's written somewhere in teh forum already, but if so, I probably didn't use the right search-strings.
So, please excuse if the question was asked before
I got a question about the effect of bonusses on your economy.
So if you produce/research something it costs you money.
If you have a bonus-planet-tile that increases your output you probably have to pay fully for that.
so far so good.
But what do more general bonusses do? Like:
- If a planet has +50% Production/Research bonus, do you have to pay fully for the extra production that generates?
- If you build a starbase near a planet that increases its production and reserach by 19% - do you have to pay for that ?
- if you harvest a research ressource that increases your reserach empire wide by x%, do you have to pay for that?
And a last question, something slightly different:
In my current "tough" game my main opponent are a quite strong altarian resistance. While I'm befriended with them and trying to get an alliance I try to ..well.. sabotage them slightly. On one of their planets thy got 700% production tile + it's the manufacturing capital. currently they got a Manufacturing centre built there (not sure if the name is right, the one that pumps out a max of 10 production)
When I place a spy there, the planet production is lowered by almost 200 points (190 something). And I simply cannot image how that's possible:
+700% mean 80 base production
They could have a starbase there that adds 24%
The planet may have a moon (I dont really remember atm, so I just assume it): +10%
They have probably +20% production from the modifier the techs give
The Manufacturing Capitol is built there.
All that adds up to +104%, so about 100% bonus
Which would get the production to 160 MAX.
But they got a much smaller empire than me and keep up with research quite well. So they should have at least 40% of money going into research, which would make +100 effective production from this one tile. So how does it drop the planets procution by about 200 points. I'm at a loss here...
(They got another +300% tile on the same planet which drops the planets production by 100 points when I spy there...so this is in line with the above from the +700% tile)
