Re: decreasing population growf after 2 billion

It will continue to drop, but since it uses a sliding scale, there is no point in time at which '0'% growth will be reached.
0.0000...etc...1%, yes. But actual 0, never.

Imagine it's like this; the number aren't right, but it gives the idea.
2B planets: 100%
3B planets: 50%
4B planets: 25%
5B planets: 12.5%
6B planets: 6.25%
7B planets: 3.125%
8B planets: 1.5625%
9B planets: 0.78125%
10B planets: 0.390625%

(Went to 10B as that is a reasonable figure, with quite a few people having that many planets.) :)

You are currently growing at 6.07 percent of full capacity...

Does anyone have an idea of the actual equation admin use, or is it against the rules to post/ask such an equation? It would be interesting to determine what the maximum reasonable army size is, since this curve seems to be fading to some fixed number at which your army size would probably increase quite slowly.

don't think its against the rules. I'm pretty sure admin released the maths behind the power up levels after the Oct 07 update so it wouldn't be a stretch to ask for this one. Of course changes haven't occured on ascended for a year so admin may have left the building in that regard...
