    Boost Building Bonus Calculated incorrectly

    Boost building is not calculating correctly on ANDROID (ONLY) after 5.0 update.

    Infantry Attack
    Infantry Defence
    Ground Attack
    Ground Defence
    Air Attack
    Air Defence
    Sea Attack
    Sea Defence

    In each of the categories above, the boost building boost is supposed to be MULTIPLIED by the SUM OF INDIVIDUAL BONUSES in EACH category. Instead, the boost building bonus is ADDED (not multiplied). For example, for Infantry Def, if the sum of all your infantry defense bonuses are 350% and you have a lv 10 (20%) boost building for that category, your INFANTRY DEFENSE should be 350% x 1.2 = 420%. Instead Gree is calculating it as 350% + 20% = 370%. This is true for each and every category listed above. This miscalculation is on ANDROID which explains the huge stat drop IMMEDIATELY AFTER installing V 5.0.

    Also incorrect is IPH. For me, it is displaying lower by approximately 16%. Not sure what is missing in the calculation. Could not find a "round number" that would explain it.

    Ah that might explain all the stat loss and lowered total boosts... Good observation, hope this is the case and will be fixed!

    I know it to be a fact... My numbers:

    Inf Att (added individual units + faction boost): 277%
    Boost Building: 20%
    Should be: 277 x 1.2 = 352%
    GREE Math: 277 + 20 = 297% (WRONG!)

    Inf Def (added individual units + faction boost): 436%
    Boost Building: 20%
    Should be: 436 x 1.2 = 543%
    GREE Math: 436 + 20 = 456% (WRONG!)

    Ground Att (added individual units + faction boost): 334%
    Boost Building: 20%
    Should be: 334 x 1.2 = 421%
    GREE Math: 334 + 20 = 354% (WRONG!)


    Notice a pattern? And same for the rest of the categories.... By the way, I've been tracking these for many months. I update my spreadsheet every few days with new units that have boost. My numbers have ALWAYS matched Gree's numbers prior to V5.0 update so I'm 100% confident I'm right. Android.

    ** All categories except Air Attack (off by 10%) because Gree doesn't want to acknowledge that Victoria Peak Recon (10% Air Attack) doesn't work. Issue was raised here:

    I lost stats after upgrade too. Down 550m from 4.5b to 4b.

    But I didn't realize boost buildings were multipliers. I thought it was just an additional % added to your boost. Well, I'm off to go upgrade the rest of them!!!

    Good spot. Explains my drop in percentages. I believe it's just another display issue. Ask an ios member of your faction to stat check you. They look better

    Looks like most of it is fixed with Android V5.0.3. All my calculated bonuses now match Gree's calculations with the exception of 2 areas, which I have already pointed out in separate posts when they were first observed.

    Only 2 bonuses from Units not working even after V5.0.3.

    They are:
    Festive Starstrike (3% Alliance Defense)
    Victoria Peak Recon (10% Air Attack)

    I also figured out why IPH didn't add up. Gree has changed the way IPH is calculated. IPH used to immediately increase when upgrade is initiated. Now, IPH is only increased when upgrade is completed. This is new as of V5.0. With that in mind, my IPH calculations match Gree's.

    My IPH has always been adjusted when the building upgrade is completed, not started.
