Galactic Showcase - Bonus is empire wide?

Posted on Sunday, May 24, 2015

Hi there GalCiv folks,

Loving the game so far, really great job. I was a little trepidatious as some reviews mentioned the game feeling "incomplete" after playing GalCiv 2, but it really doesn't.

Actually very well polished.

 

Anyway, I am playing a game as Iridium and have built the "Galactic Showcase" one-per-galaxy improvement on one of my worlds. This gives a +25% boost to Gross Income and Influence according to the tool tip which also says "Incease A worlds gross income". I then boosted it with adjacency bonuses to actually be +50% Gross Income and Influence.

What I actually observe according to hovering over the Economy and Influence calculations on my world screens however, is the following:

World with the showcase:

+50% Gross Income

+50% Influence

Worlds WITHOUT the showcase:

+50% Gross Income

+25% Influence

 

These are all attributed to the galactic showcase and seems to span my entire empire. I was wondering if this is the intended behaviour in that:

A - It applies the bonus empire wide not just on the world where it was build?

B - The 25% adjacency bonus also gets added to all worlds?

C - The 25% adjacency bonus DOES apply for the gross income, but not the influence, on other planets?

 

Thanks.
