Re: Doing the math
Asmala didn't post in this thread. 
"Same goes for fleet but it seems fleet experience doesn't go up any more...well, at least for me... "
Yes it does. It just takes a lot of kills for it to go up.
"Also, a comment on the range calculations (again, I admit to not doing proper research and that others here know these things like the back of their hand)...I thought firing from the adjacent sector had a base chance to hit of 99%."
No. The base chance to hit is 100. It can be modified to be much higher given the right combination of bonuses (such as 150% to hit at range 0). Each square then lowers it by 10. With a base of 150, you get 99% to hit up to range 5. Range 6 has a 90% chance to hit.

Re: Doing the math
Which is a point, Fyron, that I'm not sure was mentioned (and I'm too lazy to read the thread again...  )...
Is it a stock game or a mod?
Also, the combat-modifying religious facs might be a very real adjustment tbontob is experiencing.

Just wondering if he was playing under a mod that has altered the basics of "distance" formulas that are in the stock game. 'Course, I could be completely off base...

Re: Doing the math
Oh... I think he would have mentioned using a mod if he was using one. |

Yeah, well ( ), it's probably true. But working in IT, I have learned to ask the obvious.

Re: Doing the math
I thought I remember reading a year ago, that the formular wasn't as easy as Base+Positives-Negatives.
From what my bad memory can remember, I thought it was something like Base + Combat Sensors - ECM = Total (Rounded down to 100% if over 100%) +/- Race Beinfits, etc.
Mind you, it was a long time ago, maybe even before Gold...
