i did a basic table myself now, note however that the following : the effect added nw from higher LQ ratio has on science, the building cost of LQs vs TOs. Thus the true optimal ratio will be abit less LQs than what i have calculated.

At given foodcosts the following about of LQs is optimal:

10 = 72%
20 = 68%
30 = 64%

Note however that the differences between changes in ratios is extremely minimum, for instance with food price at 20 the difference in income between 55% ratio and the optimal 68% is only 4% thus given the factors that hasnt been included in my table it could easily be argued that the optimal ratio is somwhere close to 55% LQs imo.


When i pop bank, i tend to run at around 70/30% until the last big jump, where you put a lot more in into TO's to boost it up.

Basically the aim is to build the lq's more at lower OB, to save on the iron, and TO's at higher OB.

*shrugs*

And render, you always have to worry about food prices, even if a resourcer is feeding you, your missing out on the income you would gain by selling the food.

Ideally, you want to be buying all your food at low bids on the market, and your farmer should be selling all his food at the high bids...
