Production Time

I think this is the best place to post this query/suggestion, and if I am not mistaken this had been brought up before (could not find the previous post) hence this new one. If there is do delete this one

The production time in seconds is off about 5~7% (at my size of 50m2) compare to the calculation (which i recently figure out) of production completed per hr. Since all this while i have an excel sheet to estimate how long I take, I guess I have to re-evaluate it. I am certain the % will run off even more when the production capability grows, and hardly affects the smaller ones, BUT

Suggestion: Since calculation of production time is based on the figure given of X unit/hr why not just erase/delete all the production of Y unit/sec? I don't think there is people out there will look at how much they can pull out for 15 seconds right?

well, im pretty sure that when increasing a buildings size, it loses JUST a little bit of production value ... for instance, if u can produce 10 units of something with 20m, in theory u should be producing 20 units with 40m ... but u produce around 38 or so. also, if u leveled up in between the time it was expanding; when u level up, ur production rates go down slightly.

Yes correct it will, by a lot actually. But none the least, my point was, the variation in % if calculation done by unit/seconds when the quantity of production is high (~5000) it already has an impact of ~ an hr (calculation vs. reality).

So my suggestion was, since the calculation of production time is based on the production/hr and not by production/second, those figures might as well be omitted.

what are you talking about?

Items are calculated in seconds too, like power.

I usually just use the units per hour figure that is displayed to figure how many I want to make.

Klasanov, in the production time, there are two sets of time indication.

One is production unit/sec the other unit/hr.

I (after so long) had just notice that the production rate is calculated by unit/hr. So if one were to follow the unit/sec it will be off (~7% for 24 hrs production in a 5E:50m2 area) in determining the total production time. So since this is the case, i was suggesting that the production in terms of unit/sec is taken off.

Oh.

I see.

Yeah dunno.
