growth rate algorithm
Hiho!

After I completed my final exams in school I'll write a MoO2 build order calculator, i.e. how fast certain (custom) races are and what you have to build to reach a certain goal (a tech, max-pop, victory etc.).

Does anyone know how population growth is calculated in MoO2?
I did try to figure it out myself but I failed... It's either no algorithm behind it (just a data for every pop/maxpop constellation) or very complex :P

Well... I *roughly* figured out how standard growth rates are calculated: x * (maxpop - x) * constant factor ...

And what is the connection between production and maxpop when you produce housing?

Well... I could just gather all data by settling on every different kind of planet... but an algorithm would be nice.

Tell me, if you have an idea!

I seem to have noticed that housing was faster if you have more pop used as workers, but I am not sure. Late in the game I would go to housing to up my score.

Well... sure... Production -> Housing :P
But what I need is an explicit formula :|
