workday_coef, wages_coef, rations_coef

What do these coefs mean? They are all set to 1 for all govs

[PhillipAWyllie]

Oh and I've read activisions readme( from apolyton) and it doesn't explan these coefs

[J Bytheway]

I think they set the unhappiness per population per unit the respective sliders are displaced induced by displacement of the sliders in the unhappiness direction.

Alternatively, they might multiply the amount of wages you pay/rations you get/etc.

Fiddle around and see what happens.

Hi im new to the forum but a big fan of many different civillization games i've been lurking here for a while.

It means the amount of gold, science, etc each city will produce over the nomal amount like if pollution coeffiecent is 2 then each city will produce 2x more pollution

[PhillipAWyllie]

Na it doesn't. It refers to the amount of unhappiness (+ or -) when you move the sliders off the expected.

You're all absolutely wrong.
Now shut up and go away.

I guess this is sad but also kinda funny, that someone came to our "SUB-CELLAR" to post this remark

Ok...maybe we can get a definitive answer..

I do know that it relates to how well a govt is set up..like Technocracy being a great production and Corporate Republic being a great gold maker

I hope this is what you are talking about?

I tweak them in scenario making....to suit my particular setup


Peace

Na, it's to do with the unhappiness when you change the sliders from the expected. All govs are set to one for these three meaning that if I increase, say the workday by one notch all my cities will incurr a penalty equal to the pop size. On the other hand if I decrease the workday by on notch then all my cities will incurr a bonus happiness equal to the pop size. There seems to be a limit on how much bonus you get though.

No, the bonus is fixed (at 2, I think) and doesn't depend on pop size.
