Mission granted infra levels..

looks like I screwed myself over for 1 level then
>_<

Okay folks, my #1 in my first post:

1. To go over the max infra limit, you need to complete research, then finish the infra granting missions.

was wrong. It used to be that way back in the day :) That or my account just glitched and I never got that reward, thank you BW for coming on msn to chat, good timing :P

Now #1 should read...

1. 255 is the max you can REASEARCH infra total, bonus infra does not count towards your total.

Oh sorry im a dope.. xD

254 is the max for one pure infra. unless you get that to 250 and 5 industry and THEN do missions my bad sorry.

wait so why do I only have 254 mining and 5 industry?
By your logic I should have 255 mining and 5 industry...

Actually...

Mission infra doesn`t count towards the total on the cap. so if you get 5 levels of mining.. you could have a grand total of 260 infra counting 5 industry, and 255 mining (cap is 254 for one pure infra due to a bug, 255 for mixed.)

It also doesn`t effect your turns required.

You can take the levels any time, the bonus levels don`t count towards the 255 max. They`re contained in a separate object in the code but still count as a normal infra level when used as income/housing modifiers.

You can take the two housing as terran and not pay 2500 per turn until 102 total, or take the 5 mining as miner and not pay 2500 `til 105 total. As you asked, having level 5 industry + 20 housing then taking the bonus levels will leave you paying for a total of 26, not 31.

lol yeah, been a long time for me too Valja :P

i might be wrong coz it has been a very long time i`ve maxed my infras... but there was a possibility i`ve completed my extra level mission first b4 i maxed my infras...

coz i`ve planned to have 1 landsize for 20 population and i only researched housing until level 8 so my housing`s research is at level 10...

from there on, i only researched either comm or agri or ind until max...

but i think i still can recall that i can use turns for research above level 255 at that time... and it stopped at 257 then i got the maxed research warning/sign...

anyway, i could be wrong and i did my mission after i`ve maxed my infras... what do you expect? it was 6 yrs ago... lol...

grad`s #2 is right in my experience.

hmm, if I remember correctly, and it`s been a while, so I might be wrong

1. To go over the max infra limit, you need to complete research, then finish the infra granting missions.

2. If you do the infra granting missions at, say, level 10, then I believe(and this is where I may be wrong) that the turns required for the next level (it says 16) would only take level 11 number of turns. I think I recall it taking my Ultra account until level 105 to get up to 2500 turns per level anyway...But like I said, I could be wrong.

vehystrix is right

I think you need to do the missions after you max infra in order to gain the effect of going over the max

max infras = 255 + (mission`s levels)

but you can have more that 254 lvl`s of infra.

If you already have

20 housing & 5 Industry

and if you did the mission that rewards + 5 mining level

you would have now a total of 30 levels of research

so your next level will count as 31 levels =)
