Retrieving Raw Values

Fertility

$$ Fertility = RawFertility * \frac{10}{33} $$

Resource Extraction

These values assume 100% worker efficiency.

  • Gaseous (COL): $DailyExtraction = (RawConcentration * 100) * 0.6$
  • Other (RIG/EXT): $DailyExtraction = (RawConcentration * 100) * 0.7$

Resource Extraction Cycle Runtime

Each extraction building has a different base runtime:

  • RIG: 4h48m (4.8h)
  • COL: 6h
  • EXT: 12h

Given a daily extraction value above, determine how many units per cycle. Example of Katoa & Etherwind:

  • Katoa - 16.8 Oxygen/day: $\frac{16.8}{24h/6h} = 4.2\space O/6h$
  • Etherwind - 27.0 Oxygen/day: $\frac{27.0}{24h/6h} = 6.75\space O/6h$

Now, “round up” the time to the nearest unit. Take the remainder and bring the time up proportionally.

Katoa: Since we’re 0.8 away from 5.0, we need to add 0.8 units worth of time. Since a single cycle is 4.2 O, we do: $6*\frac{0.8}{4.2}$, and add that time: $6h + (6h*\frac{0.8}{4.2}) = 5\space O/7.143h$

Etherwind: Since we’re 0.25 away from 7.0, we need to add 0.25 units worth of time. Since a single cycle is 6.72 O, we do: $6*\frac{0.25}{6.75}$, and add that time: $6h + (6h*\frac{0.25}{6.75}) = 7\space O/6.222h$

The above assumes 100% efficiency. For other efficiencies, you modify the calculated cycle time appropriately. So, if you were @ 150% efficiency, $7.143h$ becomes $\frac{7.143}{1.5}$ or $5\space O/4.762h$.
