can anyone (or SD) explain the six TechInflation entries in Galciv3GlobalDefs?

Posted on Tuesday, September 8, 2015

<TechInflationExponent_All>1.2</TechInflationExponent_All>
<TechInflationMultiplier_All>0.12</TechInflationMultiplier_All>
<TechInflationExponent_Tree>1.1</TechInflationExponent_Tree>
<TechInflationMultiplier_Tree>0.12</TechInflationMultiplier_Tree>
<TechInflationExponent_Specialization>1.1</TechInflationExponent_Specialization>
<TechInflationMultiplier_Specialization>0.10</TechInflationMultiplier_Specialization>

It's pretty clear what  they do & altering them definitely makes a difference in research speeds, but there are too many variables nrtween the six to figure out how they interact with the ResearchCost  beyond "makes it bigger".  doing some more extensive tests going deep into the tech tree to figure out the formula would take a really long time
