Re: Proportions mod 1.5 released

Uh, yeah. I (not being a modder) never thought to look at the components.txt file.  So, um, yeah. Everything I said still goes, except that one must replace the numbers I gave with 4 (CQ), 5 (BP), and 15 (SS). So if one is counting, one can note that this makes SS even more powerful (in comparison to CQ, and recalling that 1 CQ = 10kt v. 1 SS = 20kt) than I'd noted: SS I is 1.875 times better, SS II is 3.75, SS III is 5.625, SS IV is 7.5, and SS V is 9.375. IOW, it would take an amount of CQ equal to twice any of the above numbers to provide matching protection (e.g., to equal 1 SS I, you need 3.75 CQ).
Oh, and methinks my long-ago confusion re: Master Computers may have been caused by fuzzy math based on the notion that a CQ was worth 1/3 of a "level" of SS rather than 1/3.75. Further experimentation with this in mind has shown 'em to be utterly worthless at defending v. BPs.
