Re: What's the new cap rate thing?
If you hover over the planets size in the galaxy screen, you get alittle pop-up saying what the maxcap and % cap will be.. Could try working it out from that

Re: What's the new cap rate thing?
Should do? :/
It's the portal one. I'll update everything to match. sorry just got back from holiday
Edit: I can't find anything different in terms of logic between the combat engine / bcalc / galaxy calc. could you let me know what values etc you used please? When I tried it and populated the values + roids in the bcalc, it came out fine

Re: What's the new cap rate thing?
The only worse thing than adding shit new "features", is adding bugged ( shit ) ones.
Well done

Re: What's the new cap rate thing?
With the difference being that those new additions were not (bull) shit but urgently required changes in order to stop that newbie bashing and force people into actually picking decent fights.
But yeah, I agree that those things being buggy is once again a prove on the poor development this game receives. I seriouly hope Pete does relief PA Team from this unthankful duty at some point and replace it with a decent game development team (even if it is just a graphics guy and a programmer).

Re: What's the new cap rate thing?
so now we have the new variable based capping formula that is based off of value, with hidden production? so what was the point in changing the cap formula again?

Apologies again for all the problems caused.

Re: What's the new cap rate thing?
There was a thread about the value bug in the beta forums but they must have missed/ignored it

Re: What's the new cap rate thing?

Re: What's the new cap rate thing?
In fairness to wish something always seems to go wrong for him each round. Good to see pateam upholding this fine tradition.
