How are trait building/unit build bonuses applied?

[reflec]

I find it's not completely clear how these are applied to your production.
Expansive for example, gives you a 25% production bonus towards workers.


I know you get the bonus if they come from actual tiles worked, I assume rounded down

Do from whipping get this bonus?
Do from chopping get this bonus?
Do you get this bonus from surplus into settlers/workers?
If you build something and get overflow into a worker, does the overflow get this bonus?
If you finish a worker and get overflow, does that overflow still get the bonus into whatever you build next?

etc. etc. etc.

Probably missing some scenarios too


Thanks

As far as I know:

Do from whipping get this bonus?

Yes

Do from chopping get this bonus?

Yes

Do you get this bonus from surplus into settlers/workers?

No

If you build something and get overflow into a worker, does the overflow get this bonus?

Yes

If you finish a worker and get overflow, does that overflow still get the bonus into whatever you build next?

No

From your questioning I suspect you were already assuming these answers

This is why you almost always try to stack your overflow into whatever gets the bonus-be it a worker, settler, or a wonder. If you're industrious, failgold pays out 50% more commerce than building wealth. You can really use that to your advantage.

Bonuses are indeed rounded down. If a city building an Expansive worker doesn't generate a multiple of 4 (whether due to tiles, overflow, Engineer specialists, chops, or whatever else that isn't excess converted into ) you're effectively wasting a fraction of a hammer (4×1.25=5 flat, 5×1.25=6.25 gets rounded down to 6, etc). Keep an eye on, for example, a 1 city building workers that can share tiles to make sure that that city isn't working a 2 tile when it could steal another city's 3 tile and get another from EXP.
