[1.21d] Demetallizer production not modified by planet stats

Post by Magirot »

The in-game description of Metal Soil Filtration tech reads:
This tech allows you to gain metals from the lithosphere. The higher the density of heavy elements in the planets core the better this technology will work.
However, Demetallizer asset production isn't actually affected by anything other than Governor relations, so the production doesn't get modified by the planet.

Until now I assumed this was intentional and the description is outdated, but today I noticed that Demetallizer assets actually have something in their Modify Formula field:

Code: Select all

(PROD*RANDOMKEY.15)/100
it's not prefixed by "PROD =" like other entries in the Modify Formula column, so it's not actually modifying production. RANDOMKEY.15 is checking for heavy elements judging from Planetary Data in SE_Random, so I assume the intended behaviour is actually to be modified by them?


(The Autonomous Cloning Facility production might have the same problem? It has

Code: Select all

((ZONEKEY.pop+ZONEKEY.worker)/100)+1
as its Modify Formula without "PROD = PROD +". Cloning Facilities are pretty powerful as-is though...)
