how is the power of planets decided?

[Silicis]

Once, I spyed on someone to learn the strength of their planet. I conquored it, but it was more powerful under my account for some reason, and when other people spyed on me, it had the same low value. Is this a glitch?

I believe when u spy on planets they still show up the old value, the value that was much lower before the update.
I dunno why but must be

I think that the planets show the base value before the bonus for upgrading the planet size, so if you want to know their real value, you have to multiply it by the size...

so a tiny planet would have the value that you spy on, a very small planet would have double the value that you spy on, a small planet would have triple the value that you see when you spy, and so on. (UP planets would only have 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 times the value, based on the update that changed the size to affect the planets values)


I might be wrong, but thats what I think.

That seems like it'd be kinda akward. I think DUDEY'S explanation is probably closer to the mark.
