Re: mathematical formulaes
Formula to determine cost to research tech:
Low Tech cost: level cost*level
Med Tech cost: level cost*(level^2)/2
High Tech cost: level cost*(level^2)

Re: mathematical formulaes
OK, I figured out that
(trade-received)*(100/trade-percent)- is the formuala for determining an opponents production of minerals, organics, radioactives, research points and intelligence points.
Having a trade relationship with more than one race will of course screw it up. 
But I am still puzzled about...
damage/size/rof and the meaning of "rof".

It is for determining how powerful a weapon is. The formula factors out differences in Size and Rate of Fire, to bring all weapons to the same scale. The higher the end result is, the better the weapon is. |

Thanx. I think I see what you are trying to say... 
Hmmmm....
Possibly, a better way to put the formula may be damage*rof/size.
