Default [BUG] resource production calculation

See attachment please.
I think resource production is calculated incorrectly.
I would like somebody to confirm this before sending to Malfador.

None of your attachments seem to work, though.

Even in SE4, the bonuses didn't all add linearly. Bonuses of one type add linearly (like a culture bonus and a racial trait bonus (and a characteristic in SE4)), but the different types stack multiplicatively.

Its more like:

21000 * (value) * (happiness) * (population) * (racial trait)
21000 * 1.24 * 1.1 * 1.5 * 0.95 = 40817.7

I can't explain why the number is ~500 less though. Weird intermediate rounding? Improperly calculated -5% from the trait?

The planet value is directly multiplicated with the production: 21000 x 1.24 = 26040.
Then all modifiers are added together +10%, +50%, -5% which gives +55%.
26040 x 1.55 = 40362

Then things like Robotoids and Mineral Scanners multiply their effects as well.

Fyron was wrong!

I did mention that there are some groups of bonuses that add together, then the sum is put in the multiplicative formula... I just wasn't sure which ones off the top of my head. This is the SE4 version, but its probably the same for SE5...

Total Facility Output = (total facility production)*(planet value)*(population modifier + happiness modifier + racial characteristics)*(planet bonus facility)*(system bonus facility)
