Hi all,
What’s the best way to determine what this number should be at? I tried figuring this out based on the existing missions, but when I saw that France was better than Germany, I was thrown for a loop.
Any advice?
Thanks,
Abs

The global economic cycle is basically a sine wave.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine_wave
So the value curves up, then down, then back up again over a certain period of time. That time is defined in \data\simconfig.txt as
GLOBAL_ECONOMY_CYCLE_LENGTH_YEARS = 8
and the intensity of it is adjusted by this value:
GLOBAL_ECONOMY_INTENSITY = 0.5
So at a value of 0, the economy is neutral, it goes up to a peak at 0.25, then down past the start value at 0.5 to a bottom dip at 0.75, then back to the start at 1.0
