ohioastronomy said:It would help quite a bit if there was a worked example.
Let's say that I'm at Emperor, standard map, and I have 4 cities, all size 4.
I'm not an organized civ and have basic civics except for Slavery.
The three cities are all 4 tiles away from the capital.
Am I correct in assuming that I pay:
Distance maintenance of
0.95*0.80*4*11/17 for each of the three cities for a total of 5.96 (6)
Number of cities maintenance of
0.9*0.3*4 per city, for a total of 4.32; I don't understand the last term.
Does it mean I add 1/4, 2/4, 3/4 = 1.5 extra maintenance total?
Civics maintenance of
Government:1*(0.08*8,round to 0)+(0.4*3,round to 1) = 1
Legal: 1*(0.08*7,round to 0)+(0.4*4,round to 1) = 1
Labor: 0
Economy:1*(0.08*5,round to 0)+(0.4*6,round to 2)) = 2
Religion:1*(0.08*4,round to 0)+(0.4*7,round to 2)) = 2
So my total maintenance cost would be 6+4.3+1.5+6 = 18?
3/5/5/5 is what would show up on each city, on average, for the quoted maintenance costs?
Well the Distance maintrenance for the three non-capital cities would probably be 1 (rounding is down in everything in Civ 4 so far), possibly 2 since the formula isn't 100% accurate, but it seems to give higher results rather than lower ones... rounding down that we don't know about.
# cities maintenence would be
.9*.3*4=1.08 base meaning
1.08+0/4=1 for the first city
1.08+1/4=1 for the second city
1.08+2/4=1 for the third city
1.08+3/4=1 for the fourth city
for a total of 2 maintenance in each non capital city and 1 in the capital
so on the finance screen
3= Distance maintenance
4= # of cities Maintenance
Civic Maintenance=6
Government:= 1
Legal: = 1
Labor: 0
Economy:= 2
Religion:= 2
For a total of 13 in non-unit pre interest maintenance costs
