Question to PlanetaryProjectDefs.xml

In PlanetaryProjectDefs.xml per project there are line like that:

What does that mean exactly? I would suspect that means that principally one gets the bonus defined in the project for every 10 manufacturing points, but since BonusMax = 1 every manufacturing point over 10 doesn't have an effect.

That seems to be what I observed until now, seeing the projects having mostly only a very small effect. But I now have begun a new game (with a Steam Workshop faction) and I actually can see a difference according to manufacturing the planet produces as if BonusMax was not factored in in my above assumption. Has there something changed in the game of late?

For example, if you funnel 103 manufacturing points into an Economic Project, you would add min(1, 0.05 * ceiling(103/10) = 0.55 to the colony's income multiplier.

At any rate, that was how it worked the last time I checked.

Quoting joeball123,

If you have X manufacturing points being funneled into a project, then you get a modifier of min([BonusMax], [Value defined within the Bonus tags]*ceiling(X/[ManufacturingPerBonus]) from the project, where ceiling(X) is the function which returns the smallest integer Y such that Y >= X.

For example, if you funnel 103 manufacturing points into an Economic Project, you would add min(1, 0.05 * ceiling(103/10) = 0.55 to the colony's income multiplier.

At any rate, that was how it worked the last time I checked.

It still does, the only thing that changed is the added limit <BonusMax>1</BonusMax>,

meaning you dont get more than 100%

Ok, I see, thanks, will check that out.

Edit: ok, I checked, it's like you both said. Thanks again
