So about a UP planet, does that mean it is better to add UP at higher planet multiplier?
0. Following the formula UP=(cost-7.01mil)/5000*multiplier
1. Assuming when the planet size increases the UP does not change.
2. Then the cost per upgrade of UP actually decreases because the multiplier is larger?
3. so the UP added also becomes larger at lower cost?
0: this formula is correct
1: The larger your planet size the more you get per upgrade because the multiplier is increased. But this also affects the upgrades previously bought retroactively, just like with every stat planet. So increasing size also increases total up without any extra upgrades.
2: yes and no. it is more correct to say the up increase is larger instead of saying the cost of upgrade is lower because you can't buy cheaper upgrades, but you do get larger up increases. It's more play on words what i did here but both statements, yours and mine, are basically correct. but mine is more accurate in terms of game mechanics
3: up added is LARGER at SAME cost
kager wrote:That sounds too good to be true.
So I guess it should be
0. the same formula rewritten as cost=UP/multiplier*5000+7.01mil
1. the cost before and after planet size upgrade is the same
2. UP jump a fraction determined by (new_mult/old_mult)
3. UP added becomes larger at the same cost.
In short you gain by having fewer "number of upgrades" (or "clicks") to reach the same UP, therefore the cost is lower.
I don't know if this is correct. Can someone tell me if I am wrong? Thanks!
0: it is indeed what you wrote
1: yes it is
2: hmm only if you compare up jump between planet with lower and [;anet with higher size
3: yes
