Crawlers limit

    So I just noticed that there is a hard cap on the crawlers' production at 50% the production of your mines.This means 1.111 crawlers at 150% for a collecters is what they need.Anything above that does not add to the production.Why is that??In my universe with 8x economy I can build 1.180 crawlers with my mines but with no added production.Why?

    50/0.045=1,111.11111...


    It's 1,112. Otherwise you end up with only 49.995% increase.

    You can have 8 more active crawlers for each mine level.


    Obviously the 50% cap would have been put in place for balancing purposes, but I can't remember the reason they gave for it. I don't think there's any reason to have the 50% cap anymore. If it's removed, then the crawler lifeform research might actually be worth getting as well.

    I can build 1179 because my levels are 50-40-44 so it is 134*8*1.1 but as we've established it is pointless.And it actually makes the lifeform research for roktal pretty pointless too as the only bonus that would actually increase is the 25% from the collector bonus which is not enough...
