Question about 'advanced help'
AFAIK, eco-damage formula displayed in 'advanced concepts' screen is wrong. My question is, are the other formulas (e.g. bureaucracy and unit cost) incorrect? I recall that I tried once to check unit cost formula (and it's wrong IIRC, but I'm not sure), and I was never patient enough to check inefficiency formula.

Oh, and another question. Does someone know why game designers displayed the wrong values? I can't imagine what was the reason, and I couldn't believe they didn't know the correct values...

The information in the manual on eco damage is in error/incomplete/unclear. Checks items 17-20 in the common questions thread near the top of the forum, including cliking on the link to the disussion thread.

And don't forget to marvel at the time and effort people have put into thoroughly testing just about every aspect of the game.

Ehm, actually my question was about formulas other than ED, i.e. unit cost and bureaucracy.
