How again was attack bonus, no fear, military research handled? Additive or multiplicative?
Example:
Attack Bonus: 30%
Military research: 20%
No Fear: 10%
Is it added: 30% + 20% + 10% = 60%
Or multiplicative: 1.30 * 1.20 * 1.10 = 1.716 (71.6%)
Heck, no answere?
I haven't played for 7 years and have plainly forgotten how it is handled in IC.
It can't really be that IC has gone so far down that either nobody knows anylonger or that it is guarded as "secret knowledge" now. Come on...
It used to be multiplicative. Haven't played in a while either so not sure how it is anymore.
I believe it's additive.
(unit stats x race bonus) + (unit stats x military research) + (unit stats x no fear) + (unit stats x fleet admiral)
where do i get more unit stats 
Genesis just likes to be repetitive!
Should be:
unit stats x (race bonus + military research + no fear + fleet admiral)
Indeed, genesis formula is waayy wrong, it adds the unit base like four times 
.. One droid would do like 50 damage instead of its supposed 12 ish with near max stats
But torqez is almost right...
Unit stats x (1+(race bonus + military research + no fear + fleet admiral))

Humidity is almost right...
Unit stats x (1+((race bonus + military research + no fear + fleet admiral)/100))
Humidy is right, worm is noob
When calcing you would always use decimals anyways.. So 50% becomes 0.5 so you wouldnt divide by 100....
Thanks for the answer(s).

Entirely why I said to /100
In fact what you just did was to do the same calculation but in your head. To convert a % into a decimal you /100 (but if you were to do this mentally you would do it for every %...which isn't hard but still)
You drop the % off each of the bonus and you use my formula it will give you the correct answer. You are suggesting that they work out each % to decimal (which mine does automatically)...
"Humidy is right, worm is noob"
Both answers are correct, mine is easier to calculate...(and the same formula setup as demonstrated by alot of the guide formula's). Mine is just noob-friendly.
So what will ur race be rheumatic? btw i used Your old attacking guide alot 
thx
Yours is plainly wrong worm, attackbnus is 50% check ur race! Its percent damnit, or 'out of a hundred" if u du ide that by 100 again, the bonuses becomes almost ignorable.
How is it noobfriendly to be mathematically wrong and mislead new players??
I was just telling him it's additive as opposed to every bonus multiplying each other.
Also in my book A(B+C) = AxB + AxC
noobs
Gen what u have herr isnt A(B+C) its A(1+(B+C))
I wasn't posting the formula I was just showing bonus don't multiply each others X(

Fine...
Unit stats x (1+((race bonus + military research + no fear + fleet admiral)/100%))
Since you want to keep the "%" in the whole equation...
