| Summary | 0016786: Multiplicative bonuses for housing (at least) are currently way overdone | ||||
| Description | While I definitely support more adjacency bonuses to decrease sprawl a bit - I really like the ideas in this version - currently they are way too effective - the entire population of a major city could live in a single condominium surrounded by 6 middle eateries, for example. 100 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 6400. Simple ways of toning down would be by either a) reducing the numbers on those multipliers, especially for the same-building versions, b) changing the bonuses from multiplicative to additive (so that x2 actually means +100% to the base, giving 700 instead of 6400) or c) (and my preference) both. Natural Wonders should stay special with larger numbers, but I like the 1.3 on farms and water a lot more than I do the 2 on housing, especially multiplicatively. | ||||

* The way that adjacency bonuses from buildings work, which were mostly introduced last turn, has been vastly scaled back to more numerically-sane values. No more getting 6400 housing from a single building after stacking bonuses, etc. ** The scale of the natural wonders and resource effects have not been touched for now, because those are a lot harder to stack and they are supposed to be very special. |
