I have a feeling my question was not clear (or I terribly missed something). I am not asking about production times, which was what all the misery was about.
If I put in 100 resources I get a certain amount of ships produced with a certain value which adds to my planets value.
If I put in 85 resources under a feudalism government I get the same ships produced.
The question is: will the value of the ships that I now have (and therefor the value and score of my planet) be as if the ship have costed me 100 resources, or can I have the same ships while having a lower value.
The significance is that a lower value allows people to attack smaller planets with their fleets.
In other words:
How does the 15% lower production cost work out in this formula?
Value = (Fleet-cost / 100) + (Resources / 150) + (Constructions * 1500) + (Roids * 200)
Are the production cost the same definition as the Fleet-cost in the formula above?
