Upgrade reduction times with 2 x 20% event bonuses

[Tail gunner]

As promised, here is the calculation for the upgrade times if you have both the 20% upgrade reduction time bonuses:-

Example:-

Biodome upgrade time from LVL 5 to 6 is 60 hours without any bonus reduction added

After 1st 20% upgrade time reduction bonus this is now 48.00hrs (20% of 60hrs)

After 2nd 20% upgrade time reduction bonus this is now 38.24hrs (20% of 48hrs)

Hope this helps

Thanks for posting this! So this means the bonuses are cumulative (i.e. the reduction is actually 0.2 x 0.2 x Upgrade time, instead of (0.2+0.2) x Upgrade time)

So, in other words, no matter how many bonuses you receive (in the future), you will never be able to reduce upgrade times to 0. Additionally, each additional bonus you receive will have a lower additive effect (since again, it's a cumulative reduction).

Thanks for posting this information!!

Yeah, bad for reductions but good for boosts.

@Khimsoo - Not sure if you have been asked this already, but do you have an idea of when the Global Satellite may be coming out?

The global satellite has the same property as the command centers at the moment, if I hard code to remove them now, u might not see it when it is actually released.

Don't know if I sld remove it or not.
