Oh now i understand. Smile You wanted exact 1 mineral precision! Stars keeps internally mineral conc depletion progress. Player cant see it nowhere so that thing is hard to use in formulas. That is why "standard" formulas are not accurate. There is ~50 minerals inaccuracy during 100 years but nothing to do.

As analogy player can not see population with full (1 pop) precision (but its there internally). The planet capacity fill percentage is applied with quite low accuracy to that number so pop growth and death follow strange sawtooth curve (and that is also added or substracted with precision of 1). These two factors together make it very hard to predict population at planet with exact 100 precision. No much to do. Nod


Just out of curiosity: can somebody explain just how are minconcs and/or actual pop "internally" stored? As I understand it, they should also be present in the m file, right? Sherlock



So many Stars, so few Missiles!

In space no one can hear you scheme! Deal
