Default System versus Planetary Facilitys

Basically, my questions is thus: do system and panetary bonus facilities stack? For example, if I have a System Central Computer Complex II (+20%) and a Planetary Computer Complex III (+30%) what would my research bonus be? +50%? +20%? +30%?

Thanks
Derek

It used to be that System and Planetary bonuses did stack, so it would have been 50% bonus. I don't think it is still like this, so it would be 30% (the game would pick the greater of the two bonuses).

Ehhh? This is the first I've heard of this change. Are you sure about that, will?

Multiple system facilities will not stack anymore. In the early Version of the game you could have a multiple copies of both planetary and system facilities on every planet and they would all stack, so you could have several thousand 'percent' bonuses on production. Now it's just one planet enhancer per planet and one system enhancer per system. I have not noticed that system facilities don't stack with planet facilities, and there was no notice in the history.txt about this change. If a system facility didn't stack with a planet facility what would be the point of system facilities??

I don't think they stack unless you have a system and plantary facility that have different abilities due to the restrictions, "one facility effective per..."

ex:

system robotoid factory (+system minerals) + planetary mineral scanner (+planet minerals)
Stack

system robotoid factory (+system minerals) + system mineral scanner (+system minerals)
Don't Stack

Quick Question:

Assuming planet wide facility bonus X of +30 and system wide facility bonus Y of +30.

Is it:

a) total = Resource * (X+Y)

or

b) total = Resource * X * Y
