Are you positive about the "magic number" being a "decimal part"? I'd have bet the Jeffs would use integer logic for this. Sherlock

I actually think of that as "mining progress". I named it as "decimal part" again as its lot better than "magic number".
There certainly is no magic. Laughing

What is so shocking? Players have had no access to that progress byte.

Its been discussed tons of times, and made spreadsheets and what not ... the published algorithms are close enough. From few kT the results differ during 20 years you dont build fleets anyway. Confused
