Default Re: Using captured races for population

Not to mention that I=P*e^(rt) is the "continuous compounding" interest calculation, whereas the population growth is a periodic compounding (i.e., calculated at discrete time intervals).

I also have yet to see a 30% population growth factor on my worlds... highest I've seen so far is 18%... (but then, I don't think I have any Optimal worlds colonized).
