Data Table of Technology Levels For Inventions

[comagoosie]

Some statistics that some may want to look at.

To find what tech level you should be at:
Formula = (X – 475) / 10

1. Take the year that you are at.
2. Minus 475 from year.
3. Divide the number by 10.
4. Round down.

To find tech level you want to achieve by a certain date:
Formula = X • 10 + 474

1. Take tech level that you want.
2. Times tech level by 10
3. Add 475

NOTE: Just because you have reached a tech level doesn't mean you get the invention. There are certain requirements for each invention. Oftentimes if you achieve one invention, it cancels out another.

The format:

I'm pretty sure that you need to consider research points in your formula. More research moves you through the levels faster.

Good work, it might be worth adding the path you need to be on to get each invention, ie. closed/open nobility, greek/roman warfare, large/small ships etc. I mean it's pretty obvious but it would complete the table...

We'd be very interested if you'd post this data, when perfected, in the Modifications forum. We're in the process of gathering as much data as possible for modding purposes.

I am in the process of making a flow chart.

To have the effects of the invention in the flow chart would be too crowded and having the triggers would make the table too crowded. So once the flow chart is done I will have it up.

I can either get the effects or I can get the triggers. Here is something I made as a sample. Let me know what you think.

Is there a reason you can only get triggers or effects, but not both? Both pieces of information would be incredibly useful.

It looks nice, but it's a tad impractical (size-wise) for casual reference usage.
Perhaps something a bit more utilitarian could be produced?

Great stuff. I'll leave this here for a little while, but let me know if you want it in the FAQ. I have heard a lot of people ask for more specifics on tech levels / inventions.

I will work on it, but size wise, I did a sample as Navy (the smallest txt file) and this is just the triggers, imagine the effects and then imagine what it would look like with land.

sounds good

deal. but I don't know how long it will take me.
