New question:
On the planets screen (where you order buildings), there is a bit of info shown for each planet and building type, namely the number of built/in progress/queued buildings and construction time. Now, the construction time part. What unit is it expressed in. It can't be possibly turns because that would mean that my empire must be older than it is

Even more questions:
What's the relation beetween the number of particular buildings, population working in those buidlings and production? That is, what is the formula to calculate, for example planet's metal production, given number of mines and number of people working those mines. I would try to guess it myself, but it looks like you can't see the production of a particular planet, just the grand total.
Also, how's the max planet population calculated?
And, finally, is there a place where all those nice formulas are, or are they, for some reason, unavailible to the public?

The text in [n] shows time needed for building to be construction on the planet. It will be ready in [n] turns from the moment it was started.

If you set your population to work in a field - they will generate extra good (besides building production) in that field. In updated GUIDE there will be some base values for most relevant values.

Usualy we will not make our formulas public.

So, build time is expressed in turns. But it seems that many buildings can be constructed simultaneously (or however it's spelled ). For example, if you order 10000 mines, they will not be constructed one by one, but in big chunks. So, how many buildings can be in construction at once on a given plane?

Hmmm, of course it's possible to guess all the laws and formulas yourself (given enough patience), by the means of experimentation. After some time they will all circulate among the community (and newbs will have to beg for such info ), so wouldn't it be better to just release all the facts to the public? I'm not saying that you should, I'm just giving suggestions. Don't get mad at me

I was hoping someone could clarify the HP for population? I know the damage is per 1000 pop but is the HP also per 1000 pop or is it per 1 pop?? Thanks.

Hey, I found this on Human guide, in part about science:

Intelligence

New ways of intelligence and sabotage missions. Will increase the success probability of missions.


So humans can do sabotage missions too? If so, how? Or is it just a small mistake?

Mistake and not in the same time.
Currently, this tech can help you against Mercs - for example, let Mercenary has level 3 and his target has level 2 - then finally it will look like Mercenary has level 1. If target Empire has level 4 and Mercenary lvl3 - the probability of mission success is minimal.
But humans are... humans and it is possible to add some sabotage missions for them ... in future.

P.S. People, You are crazy - look at the calendar
P.P.S. I`m crazy too

Hey,

I don't really understand, what are the advantages for one or other planet to be human home system? IS there any advantages to select one or other planet?

If you buy ships on the market they automatically go to your home fleet...

Question here: Regarding the sabotage for humans, its not going to be like mercs is it, cause that would render mercs a little less useful, what about if they could do sabotage but only fleet sabotage by insergents?

1000 in the current version, but it practically useless to do EMP-Vortex with only 1 ship.

i asked for one ship so i could calculate with ease how much it would take for 70 ships for example. what is relationship with energy to damage? what is damage dependent up?.. for ex. if i used 1 capital ship and did "z" damage.. if i used 2 capitals would i do "2z" damge or "z squared" damage?

1 ship -> x dmg
Z ships -> Z*x dmg

So, how is the max planet population calculated ?
