Anyone know the formula for tax in relation to population. Its definately not linear as Earth had a 2000M people and another place had 200M yet earth was only 2-3x the income and earth was better quality planet.
Also anyone else wonder how the computer players can have so much money especially the so called minor civs. They seem to be able to tech like crazy and still have a few thousand in reserve. In my last game I was having to run at 33% gov spending to avoid going bankrupt. Although I had built a stupid number of starbases so earth had a 1075% production bonus
so it was over producing, wish I could set the individual levels of spending for planets rather than one for the empire.
Still great game, much better than MOO3 as for the most part its much easier to understand and control this game. Love the starbases although its not fun when your super productive starbase becomes shark food
