Narf's Mod: Almost done shredding the Facility.txt. Basic stuff only.

i just finished putting in 20 'normal' engines, based off of Ion Engine I with 10% increase. the size, costs and supply usage are modified by engine speed with (INT(E+0.5)/E)*#. supply usage decimals are ignored. maybe i should compensate for having a second ability which is close enough to 100% of actual number to be considered 100% by (((INT(E+0.5)/E)+1)/2)*#?

i thought i explained what they where lower? oh well. E = engine efficience - speed. # is cost, supply, size. the equation should make it so that if your engine speed doesn't increase due to a fractional increase in speed, the # will decrease. it seems to work. i fixed some problems with the second equation and updated for what i'm using now. the 0.5 is to round off rather than chop, which is what INT does - programing term i maybe shouldn't have used.

Renegade, perhaps this will cheer you up.
X - undefined quantity
spurt - a drip, under presure
so, phonetically, X-spurt...
