Q? - T1 Fac near Mex

Postby Arcani » 02 Jun 2013, 21:26

Hi there, I´m pretty new to FAF and I have one questions I dodn´t find exact answers to.

So, is it worth to build factory near mex? I found that (not sure in FAF, but in original FA) that factory consumption of mass is lowered by one, but global display of resources counts it still at full (ex. T1 build normally for -4 mass, near mex show -3, but at global is still -4)? Thx

I assume the factory displays -3 while -4 are shown globally due to a rounding error.
A T1 mex only reduces mass consumption by 7,5%, so a factory will take up 3,7 mass instead of 4 if you build it beside a mex.
That's obviously closer to 4 than to 3, but I guess the factory always rounds down while the global count doesn't.

Well it raised one more question in addition. When T1 gives 7.5% bonus is it correct to say that T2 gives 10.75% and T3 15%?

T3 gives a 25% bonus. Not sure on t2, but perhaps around 14%?

good time to clarify, what are the numbers on engie mod, still 12.5%?
FA is a game of economic micromanagement (what StarCraft players mistakenly call 'macro') and tactical trumping (e.g. T2 PD countering T1 Spam).
