Summary0002876: Logistical Command Stations speed boost multiplier isn't applied uniformly
Descriptionusing version 5.001

I'm using epic speed & I find mark II standard fighters & bombers are speed boosted from 38 to 156 (4.1 multiplier) in systems with Logistical Command Stations.
An Advanced Research Station is boosted from 22 to 124 (5.6 multiplier) as is the mark II Missile Frigate & mark II Space Tanks while a Science Lab is boosted from 26 to 132 (5.07 multiplier).

Other values are as follows:
Flagship - 28 boosted to 136 (4.8 multiplier)
mark I Raid SS - 148 boosted to 376 (2.5 multiplier)
mark I Leech SS, mark I & II Shield Bearer - 32 boosted to 144 (4.5 multiplier)
mark I Bomber SS - 55 boosted to 190 (3.4 multiplier)
mark I Riot SS - 30 boosted to 140 (4.6 multiplier)
Decloaker - 46 boosted to 172 (3.7 multiplier)
mark II Space Plane - 54 boosted to 188 (3.4 multiplier)

All these values are without group move. I haven't tested the Economic or Military Command Stations as I haven't built any yet but the values seem to be as expected in my home system (double of normal speed). I'm assuming the Logistic Command Station is supposed to give something like a 4 or 5 speed multiplier going by the above values but as you can see it can be as low as 2.5 or as high as 5.6 for the small number of ship types I've looked at.

Also the tool-tip of the Logistic Command Station says "Doubles Allied Move Speed" which I'm guessing is incorrect now.

Is it using a sub-linear speed boost? It seems like he faster the ship, the less boost they get (though thankfully, faster ships remain faster).

Looks to me like it's a fixed bonus plus a multiplier bonus. Looks like *1.4 + 100 or so.

Doubles Allied Move Speed is a general command station effect, the logistics is in addition to that.

Well either the tooltip is wrong & needs updated to show the new bonus and/or the bonus is being calculated incorrectly as the values show it's not matching up.

Command in general is 2x move speed, the logistics command goes beyond that because otherwise it wouldn't be a bonus.
