some thoughts...



also many people dont know the real formula (it is NOT 75% as
stated in the help!) - it is

(rtbsts+rcmop)/(rtbsts*rcmop)

rtbsts = resources to build ship to scrap
rcmop = resources currently made on planet

so if you scrap your large jihad-battleship on a planet
with 5K pop, you gain nothing - if you scrap your silly
scout on your homeworld, you nearly gain 98% of the resources!






There must be more to it that that formula. Your formula shows that a ship scrapped at any given shipyard would return a smaller about for a larger resource world. If it were written so: (rtbsts * rcdmop) / (rtbsts+rcmop), I'd agree that you would gain more from a larger rcmop planet. (top number gets bigger faster than the denominator number). Unless, the number from your first equation plugs into the denominator of another unknown equation for the final calculation.
