Default Re: The effect of two races on a planet.

Interesting Oleg

I had heard about getting double population in a standard game, but didn't know how it worked in Proportions, having never played it.

Not sure if your advice is for proportions or a standard game or both.

So, let's take the proportions mod.

Nomally, it would be.

1 human populatates a planet at turn 1.
1.1 humans at turn 2
1.2 humans at turn 3
.
.
.
.
.
.
1.9 humans at turn 10
2 humans at turn 11

It is rounded up to the next one-tenth of a integer rather than a full integer as in a normal game.

But more important, are you saying that by adding another race in Proportions, it changes the way it calculates population growth and each race is rounded up a full integer rather than one ten-tenth of an integer.

In other words, in Proportions with a human and a Phong, both will increase by a full integer each turn rather than by one-tenth of an integer?
