EDIT: hold on, I entered in something wrong [/quote] Anyway, -15, 155 is 81% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chintan Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 Ah, that's better. Entered a 68 where there should have been an 86. doh! The hotspot should be here: (-17, -177) URL: lon=-177&lat=-17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marx the Great Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 (edited) Chintan, thanks for doing all this, btw. I've used this thread every single month since I bought my wonders, I know it hasn't been you the whole time, but I know it has been you for a while, anyway. so again, thanks for making it so easy. Last month I just stuck with 2/3 being at 99% and never bothered to change them, but this month I hit on my first try so all 3 are 100%. WTG!

JoshuaR Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Agreed, and I love seeing the graphs as it gets narrowed down! If I'd programmed this in myself, I know I'd have just been lazy and told it to spit out the numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ace072199 Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Base Effectiveness: 98% Last Moved: 4/2/2011 Location: -18.64625, -176.48438 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenne Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 So, I have a question for everyone. At what point does it become no longer cost effective to spend the money to move your Base/Mine/Colony to the hot spot. You are getting a decreasing benefit throughout it's life, but the min effectiveness is 50%. At some point, it has to cost you more to move it than what you gain from the happiness bonus at 100%. Just wondering if anyone who has gotten to the end of their life has looked at this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other effects (colony citizens, infra bill reduction, income etc) are what is influenced by the hotspot, and those effects don't degrade over time. There is a possibility that the hotspot won't move very far and it will not be cost effecting to move certain wonders, depending on your size, eg one month after the hotspot moved we were still at around ~85%, and the cost of moving my base was more than it would save me in infra bills moving it to 100%, so I didn't bother... Other than that though, its usually going to be beneficial to move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chintan Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Wow, I think this is the first month that the mars hotspot was found before the moon hotspot. Of course it helps a lot that I'm on mars. http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=71214&view=findpost&p=2702971 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
