Jaret Byar	It's an equation from Planetary Economy. Now I fully understand it, I just wonder wether the default of a certain varieble is 0 or 1. 2.2/ Crime Rate (CR): CR = CL x (Sum of (Facility [A] x surface [A]) ) / (Sum of (Facility [B] x surface [B] ) ) x eTL / 0.83 If I build a city on an empty planet and I build only (for exapmple) silo, offices and HR50. So there isn't any [A] or [B] facility. Or actually there are O. In this case CR = CL x 0 x eTL / 0.83 = 0 Or is the default of [A] and [B] actually 1? ____________ Mandalorian veteran of a Kuati technocratic bloodline.

Hal Breden	Sounds to me like your crime would, in fact, be 0. Which sounds right, I think. Crime should be a value between 0 and 1, as I understand it. ____________ "May the Grace of Ara go with you, and His Vengeance be wrought upon your enemies." Only fools and children dream of heroes.

Jaret Byar	But it doesn't work this way. Seams to me you better read the rules Mr. rules team. I will need an answer from Veynom or Khan on this one. Here it is again: What if "Facility [A]" and "Facility [B]" are 0 ? (there are only offices and HR buildings) ____________ Mandalorian veteran of a Kuati technocratic bloodline.

Hal Breden	CR = CL x (Sum of (0 x 0) ) / (Sum of (0 x 0) ) x eTL / 0.83 CR = CL x (0 / 0) x eTL / 0.83 CR = CL x 0 x eTL / 0.83 CR = CL x 0 / 0.83 CR = CL x 0 CR = 0 How does it not work this way? I'll even provide an example from a city Alissma owns (only city on the planet, note the facilities at the bottom, bolding important areas): Government: Alissma Planet Type: temperate/breathable Population: 40,288 inhabitants Civilisation Level: 0.11% Morale: 100% Crime: 0% Employment Rate: 16.0 / (100.0 + 0.1) = 0.15984 Flats Owned by City Owner: 100.00% Tax Level: 5% Planet Income: 0 credits Tax Income: 0 credits Building Info: Name Type Owner Location Powered PG Tafilah Power Generator Alissma 2, 1 Yes Tafilah Colony Skyscraper 100 flats Alissma 1, 3 Yes Also note the crime is given as a percentage, which therefore makes it a value between 0 and 1. If anyone has seen a crime value greater than 100%, then I'll admit I'm wrong. A crime rate of 0% is very possible, and that certainly seems to answer your question. ____________ "May the Grace of Ara go with you, and His Vengeance be wrought upon your enemies."

Jaret Byar	Although it hurts me deeply I have to say: Sorry, Hal, you were right after all! ____________ Mandalorian veteran of a Kuati technocratic bloodline.

Hal Breden	You better be careful - I try to make a habit of it. =D ____________ "May the Grace of Ara go with you, and His Vengeance be wrought upon your enemies." Only fools and children dream of heroes.
