Sande Posted November 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 Yes. All wonders have the same hotspot. The hotspot changes it's location at the beginning of every month. You can move all your wonders on the exact same location and they will all get the same effectiveness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjornoya Posted November 11, 2009 Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 Erm, dumb question but how do you type in the exact number co-ordinates? So far only know how to drag to spot but not get exactly on :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow Dan Posted November 11, 2009 Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 Erm, dumb question but how do you type in the exact number co-ordinates? So far only know how to drag to spot but not get exactly on :/As per the previous pageI posted instructions in the Moon Hotspot thread for getting and setting exact coordinates; they should work the same for Mars.

Rich333 Posted November 11, 2009 Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 The hotspots should always be integer coordinates, however there are minor errors in the distance calculation which will produce a non-zero distance to the hotspot for certain latitudes, resulting in 99% efficiency even when wonders are placed exactly at the hotspot coordinates. I wrote a program to produce error-corrected coordinates for all the error-prone latitudes, and posted a list of the error-corrected latitudes in the moon hotspot thread; the list can be found here. When dealing with any of the error-prone latitudes, using any of the error-corrected coordinates for that latitude will compensate for the distance calculation error.

Bjornoya Posted November 16, 2009 Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 As per the previous page Thanks it worked, although seems much more complicated than needs to be (not your fault) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Daimyo Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 I'm about to get a mars base. does it cost money to move mines and colonies? what does the effectiveness do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjornoya Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 I'm about to get a mars base. does it cost money to move mines and colonies? what does the effectiveness do? Yes it costs money to move, not anywhere near the cost to build and effectiveness is how well the wonder works. Reduces bill and cost of infrastructure by 3% when its at 100% efficiency, so if you only at 50% efficiency it only reduces by 1.5% etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sande Posted November 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 It is more beneficial only if you have more of the wonders. So buy something else next months etc. For me, just moving costs about 450k. Moving and resetting colony costs 4.5 mil-ish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sande Posted December 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 The old hotspot gives only 52% now. Which way should we go now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lavo Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 I moved mine to 6.29346, 28.41064 from the original. At 50% efficiency now (so whatever I did was wrong). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrilobyteMan Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 (edited) Where's that guy who knows the formula? 53% @ 4, 43. Edited December 2, 2009 by TrilobyteMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joesse Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Base Effectiveness: 57% Last Moved: 12/2/2009 Location: 2.00000, 52.00000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antartica North Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Location: 82.85338, -20.39063 @ 60% Location: 75.67220, 90.00000 @ 72% So. It is somewhere on the right of where I am Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sande Posted December 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 (edited) My guess would be lat 58, lon 40 if the spot is between the three spots I chose. Trying with base now. Never mind, it is 66% Edited December 2, 2009 by Sande Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan2680 Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 (edited) Location: 72.28907, 76.28906 gives me 73% Location: 70.61261, 86.48438 gives me 75% Location: 69.65709, 73.47656 gives me 74% Edited December 3, 2009 by Dan2680 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich333 Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 You should ask Provost Zhakarov for help if you have trouble finding the hotspot. He's calculated the 100% spot for the moon for several months now, and he only needs a handful of >50% data points to find it, so those of us with moon wonders are consistently getting back to 100% efficiency within 24 hours of each hotspot reset now.
