Bug and fix suggestion for Synthetic race factory

Error in ImprovementDefs.xml

April 28, 2019 5:16 AM from

Unlike any other building of similar type, the first level factory for Synthetic races offers a FLAT modifier of 0.01 units per level for adjacency bonuses. All other factory and research buildings use MULTIPLIER modifiers here.

This obvious bug can be fixed in ImprovementDefs.xml like this:

1. Search for the line <InternalName>ManufacturingYor</InternalName>

2. then locate the group <LevelEffectStats> within this improvement definition

3. change the line <BonusType>Flat</BonusType> within this group to <BonusType>Multiplier</BonusType>

P.S.: this refers to GC3Crusade. I don't know if this bug is still present in later expansions.

This happens with Retribution 3.6 as well (haven't played synthetic with the new opt-in yet). It doesn't bother me much, as I almost invariably go for the next step up very quickly (12% v 5% all manufacturing is a nice leap) and it hadn't even occurred to me that it might be a bug until now.

I just submitted this issue. Might be able to update the opt-in for it.

We have this fixed internally now. Will be updating the opt-in with change once it clears QA.
