dogscoff,
Is Range a factor in combat?

But, according to Dragon this is not the case for construction rate ! It is like : "The closest to what is displayed in the game is 2000 *(hb+rb) *(rc+pb+em)".

Dogscoff's calculations are correct, but let's apply this to SY rate.

When you setup your empire you take Hardy Industrialist (+25%) and Engineers (+5%). On your Homeworld, you have 4 billion people (+40%)and they are Happy(+10%). The normal SY rate is 2000.

The formula is 2000 + [(25+5+40+10)* 2000]=3600

I forgot to factor in emergency build which is calculated after other bonuses. In the above scenario, with emergency build on, it would be 3600 * 150% = 5400.

Now the formula stands as;

{2000 + [(rc+rb+pb+hb)*2000]} * eb

Do any of the production bonuses affect Base Space Yards / Ships?

Happiness, Population, and Hardy Industrialist do not affect space yards, but the rest do.

I am pretty sure that population does affect spaceyards construction rate. Proof: check out the "abilities" tab on various planets with different population and settings.txt.

population also affects resource production.

happiness affects resource production.

I'm pretty sure that they meant shipyard components, not planetary shipyards.
