Ezko Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 [i]Technology lowers infrastructure upkeep costs up to a maximum 10% discount based on the following formula: (Technology Level * 2) / Nation Strength = Percent off infrastructure upkeep bill.[/i] Since tech increases NS by 5, the maximum reduction percentage is given as 2*NS/5*NS, or simply 2/5, which gives 0.4%. Admin implies that the formula returns the percentage reduction and not a modifier - would I be right to say that the maximum possible reduction is 0.4%, therefore making the 10% cap pointless? Or is the 2/5 in fact a modifier, and if so should the wording not be changed to make this clearer? Regards, Ezko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirDelirium Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 2/5 would give .4 or 40%, no? so there is a reason to have the cap. That assumes a nation with 0 infra and any amount of tech. My nation would work like this: (2 * 4 240.90) / 62 362.946 = 0.136007045 so 13% off the bill. That is capped at 10% however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
