Slider oddity

[Leon Trotsky]

Look at this savegame:

With 4-2-4, I get 12 credits and a tech every 8 turns.
With 3-3-4, I get 11 credits and a tech every 10 turns.
Before anyone asks, nothing is lost to inefficiency.

Does this have to do with the fact that SMAC only works with integers?

[Chaos Theory]

Without looking at the game, yep. Every energy point collected by a base (after inefficiency) goes to either labs, energy, or psych. Labs usually gets the extra point if there's one left over, but I'm not sure what the exact formula is.
