Environmental Resistance

[Fyron]

Thanks for that link PsychoTechFreak.

I did a test of my own and found the following:
On all non-deadly planets, Environmental Resistance raises reproduction by 1% per 5 points spent in it, regardless of the conditions. On deadly planets, reproduction is always 0%. You have to raise or lower ER by a full 5% to get each plus or minus to reproduction. I did notice some weird effects on happiness. If you lower ER, then happiness drops to indifferent. A UPC or Medical Lab causes happiness to fluctuate between happy and indifferent every turn. If you raise Happiness to 110, then you can avoid this effect.

The attached text file has the data from my test.

It's not whether you win or lose that counts: it's how much pain you inflict along the way.
