Those numbers next to the your Government type

[~Karen~]

This is probably a dumb question, but its been bugging me, what do those numbers to the to name of your current government mean?

At the moment they are (6.2.2)

Thanks!

6 means your researchrate - 2 your luxury rate - 2 your tax rate.

Isn't it taxes.research.lux? I don't quite remember myself.

How do those actually take effect?

It's all explain in the manual.

It's Tax.Research.Lux, so try to achieve 0.10.0 with a positive budget.

You can adjust them through your Domestic Advisor screen, which will tell you the effects on your finances and your research.

To the best of my knowledge you have to guess at the overall effect of a certain increase in luxury spending... I don't use the luxury slider often enough to have a good feel for it. I usually build lots of happiness improvements (I always like getting the culture anyway) and trade for or seize luxury goods.

I thought we had mentioned that in your training game... They are the same sliders as on the F1 screen...

To elaborate... Thay determined the percentage of your money devoted to Income, Research and Entertainment. At 6.2.2, 20% of your gross income is being spent on research, 20% on entertainment and 60% is your net income.
