Science: Obsolete and historical data

Science: Obsolete and historical data

Age 69 - Age 76

• Age 69: The new science system is introduced.
• Age 70: Professors experience capped at 72 hours. Tools cap increased from 15% to 20%, housing and military cap from 10% to 15%, food from 100% to 200%, channeling from 100% to 125%. Additional scientist rank added: Recruit.
• Age 71: Approximately +50% scientists will be required to reach maximum effects (see table below).
• Age 71: Production Science maximum will be 120% (down from 200%) and it will increase both Food and Rune production.
• Age 72: Scientists are generated on a flat ratio (7.5%) similar to wizards instead of via RNG.
• Age 73: Science will no longer have a hard maximum for all categories. Science will scale in a linear fashion up to the previously stated maximums as normal. Once this point is reached additional scientists will yield diminishing returns.
• Age 74: Scientist experience will now show on the Science page and in the Spy on Sciences.
• Age 76: Number of scientists required for soft cap in all categories is 35.

Old scientist multipliers and caps, during Age 76:

Science Category	Effect	Multiplier	Soft Cap
Alchemy	Income	0.428	30%
Tools	Building Effectiveness	0.287	20%
Housing	Population Limits	0.215	15%
Production	Food & Rune Production	1.714	120%
Military	Military Efficiency	0.215	15%
Crime	Thievery Effectiveness	1.428	100%
Channeling	Magic Effectiveness	1.785	125%

Old scientist multipliers and caps, Age 71 - Age 75:

Science Category	Effect	Multiplier	Cap	Scientist Cap
Alchemy	Income	0.5	30%	30
Tools	Building Effectiveness	0.33	20%	31
Housing	Population Limits	0.2	15%	38
Production	Food & Rune Production	2	120%	30
Military	Military Efficiency	0.2	15%	38
Crime	Thievery Effectiveness	1.65	100%	31
Channeling	Magic Effectiveness	2	125%	32

Age ?? to Age 68

NOTE: These formulas apply to the old books system of science. In Age 69, books were replaced by scientists. From Ages ?? to 68 Science formulas worked as follows:

Science Effects

Books per Acre = Books / MAX(Acres,300)

Science Bonus = Race Mod * Personality Mod * Science Multiplier * SQRT( Books per Acre ) * Library Effect

Science Category	Multiplier
Alchemy	1.4
Tools	1
Housing	0.65
Food	8
Military	0.52
Thievery	6
Channeling	6

Science Costs

Science Cost = Raw Cost (Table Below) * Race Mod * Schools Effect

Science Rate	BPA	GC / Book	GC / Acre
No Research	0	0	0
Minimal	0.3	6	1.8
Limited	0.4	7	2.8
Sustained	0.5	9	4.5
Active	0.7	13	9.1
Focused	0.9	17	15.3
Accelerated	1.2	22	26.4
Intensive	1.5	27	40.5
Rushed	2.0	36	72.0
Extreme	3.0	50	150.0
