  • what does this mean?

    It represents what proportion of your revenue you are spending on science tax and luxeries in that order

    40% of your income goes to science budget , 20% is going back into your coffers and 40% is what you are spending to keep the people happy at 4/2/4

        Of course, you just have sliders for science and luxuries now. Taxes are the remainder.

          Hehe, I knew the question in this thread before I even opned it; that drove me crazy when I first got the game also.

            Umm, Chrisius...
            I think that Science is the middle number.

            I believe that it is Taxes, Science and Luxuries.

            I could be mistaken. I'll load-up a game and find-out for sure. Either way, it's easy enough to tell, Science and Lux will be easy to determine--just check your sliders. The 'other' one is the Tax Rate.
