Construction Value

[56ajax]

For a generic unit type eg Inf Div, Cav Div, Inf Brigade etc how do you know its maximum construction value.

I can't seem to see it via the Editor.

Thanks in advance

Easiest way to see - see screenshot.. the value ofcourse depends on state of unit and is dynamic

Thanks for that...now assuming that they have all been issued with new picks and shovels, TOE is at 100% and they have been on leave for 2 weeks ie Fatigue is low, and they have had a pay rise, morale is high what would the Construction Value be ie what is the base value for a division before the various factors are taken in to account....(and where do you see this base value)

You would have to look at the construction value of each element and reconstruct for yourself. Or get a full TOE division rested and use it as a benchmark..

[56ajax]

So the base value isnt stored as an attribute of the division?...it's hard coded somewhere and calculated on the fly...

anyone know the formula?

thx

Sure, Gary and Pavel know it but they will probably not share it. There is some stuff we do know:

- It depends on fort level in the hex (exact values in manual but this has a huge impact, especially after reaching level 3)
- Are you adjacent to enemy unit (for non sapper/construction elements, you have to divide by 5)
- It depends on the weather (mud/blizzard = .25 snow = .5)
- Fatigue
- Experience
- Static mode (times 1.1)
- Is it a swamp?
- Are there units close to the location? (12 hexes)

You can never contribute more then 50 (modified) per unit per hex and a fort can never go up more then 50 construction points per hex - all per turn..

And I haven't even considered CVLs (civie labour teams) who help fortify...

The number is calculated and it depends on
- Amount of men in element divided by 20 or just amount of elements in case of Eng, Mech Eng and Labor elements.
- Fatigue. (ex. if fatigue is 100 construction value provided by element is halved)
- Experience. Not applied to Labor elements (ex. if experience is 50 construction value provided by element is halved)
- If unit is isolated non-Engineer and non-Labor element do not provide construction value.
- If enemy is adjacent construction value is divided by 5. (Not applied to Eng, Mech Eng and Labor elements)
- If unit type is FORT total amount is multiplied by 4.
- Final construction value is adjusted by supply percentage (min value is 20%)

Something like that..
