Azaghul Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Right now, the "population density" displayed on a city page is calculated from the total population. Total population / Land However, the formula for disease uses "population density" that is calculated based on base population (infra x 100). This is unnecessarily confusing for players trying to figure out how the disease formula is calculated. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that where it says "population density" in the disease formula it would read "infrastructure * 100 / land" but I don't know where you're looking at this to fix it. If it's on the wiki, you should be able to just edit the page and fix it yourself. Quote Is there a bug? Report It | Not understanding game mechanics? Ask About It | Got a good idea?

Quote The formula used for population density when factoring Disease is different than the actual population density. The reason for this, is that Disease (based on Population Density) will kill a percentage of the Base Population, lowering the displayed Population Density. If there was no difference, the formula would feed back on each other. Edited May 27, 2019 by Zephyr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
