Building Efficency

The current formula makes no logical sense,

            [(Current Available Workers) / 2]

((2/3) * Total Jobs + 1) * Science + Race + Stance - Dragon

Even if you fix that * Sign and move the modifiers out, it doesn't account for a surplus of workers, and the +1 looks more like a "can't divide by 0" fudge factor. (That also means you can't have 100%)

If, by chance, the 1/2 current available workers means that for every 2% employment drop you have a 1% Building Efficiency drop, then you need to add 50 at the end of the equation

(.5 * %Filled Jobs + 50) + Science + Race + Stance + Dragon (Dragon already has negative stats, subtracting a negative stat makes it positive)

Algebra is FUN

Base Effect * BE * % of building * (1 - % of building)

I'm assuming this translates as

BE * Effect

Now N(1-N) is... wrong. N(1-N) says that after 50% of a building type you start losing the effects that building has... let alone it doesn't seem to follow any

So... Lets do this Right (With PAINFUL Spreadsheets!)
