FreeOrion

I am getting many weird values as I progress through a game. Cultural archive's research boost isn't constant, and fusion generation goes insane on the industry. Artificial minds doesn't seem to give fixed values either. Is this normal?

Based on what version?

My blind, off the cuff, guess would be that your save game, script files, and/or binary aren't all from the same version.

And please put a little effort into finding a less scummy image hosting service.

It should be possible to attach reasonably-sized images to posts. If your screenshot is too large, consider cropping it or saving in a different file format.

I'm using SVN 4890. I'm assuming the installer replaced all the relevant files, so all the files should be updated. I delete all my saves every time I install a new version of FO, so it shouldn't have anything with those either. What should those numbers be? I've tried to figure out where those numbers were coming from but nothing I can think of makes sense. Since a lot has been changed, I don't want to make any assumptions.

Sorry. I will do that.

The installers don't know anything about removing previous versions... I've never tried installing over top of an existing older FreeOrion install, so weird results are quite possibly a result. You should instead uninstall the old version first, or install to a different location and delete config.xml before starting the new version.

Tried this. No difference. I did a quick run studying those numbers:

Fusion gen adds 1/4 of current infrastructure.
Robotic prod adds 1/10 of current infrastructure.
Artificial minds adds 1/8 of current infrastructure.
Distributed thought seems to multiply correctly (1.25), but the homeworld during my run got a 1.44 multiplier.
Industry/research foci adds 1/8 of current infrastructure.
Cultural archives seem to add 1/4 of current infrastructure to industry, and 1/8 of current infrastructure to research.

Now, aside from building colony ship parts, what does population do, since none of the foci are based on population?
