(Items) +60% Attractiveness for furnaces = -4 each one how does that work?

[Cuddle With a STRUGGLE!]

Why would you say that and not -60% Attractiveness like other do whats up with that?

[lmahl]

Had the same thing happen to an item that gave 40% attractiveness to iron works and furnaces, feel like someone made a mistake somewhere.

It's a modifier. While I see that it is counter-intuitive, it does exactly what it says. From a logical standpoint - why would boosted production on furnaces through less restrictions decrease the pollution? That's how I see it

It should say -60% attractiveness then as some of the others do, its normally -5 but with the %60 attractiveness its -9 so that's the problem it does not do what it says it is.
From my understanding its like basic English gone wrong lol!

That would be mathematically wrong. Multipliying -5 with -0,6 would result in a net gain, though it is supposed to be a net loss in attractiveness.

No mate if something is 60% attractive it should be more attractive not less.....
I'm having a hard time following your trail of thought mate as far as I know it should be -2 not -9 or if it is -60 which it is not and you don't seam to fathom it should be -8.

I don't really see a simpler way to tell you than through math tbh...

60% increase ≙ a factor of 1,6
1,6 * (-5) = -8

EDIT: Oh, I see that I wrote 0,6 in the other post, my bad!

Yeah but its still a +60 attractiveness not -60%.
They seam to have fix the -9 since last weekend now its -8 but its still says + not -

I think you are lacking some basic math skills here. No idea how I should explain it any easier than in my previous post, sorry.

+= more -= less pretty basic stuff mate....

Its an item that has +60% not -60% that is the problem it needs to be changed either way.
Idk how much more simple i could make it mate.....
We talking in circle mate I think I made my point on every comment including the title.

It is exactly as you said. Plus is more. Just not in the direction you are thinking. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_line

And in the game, it is MORE of the negative attractiveness.

That is the point it should be fix to -60% or it needs to change from the -8 to -2 either way it needs to be fixed.

I suppose you are talking about an item like "Lord Footprint's Gargantuan Smokestack Act"? Because in that case, it is SUPPOSED to boost production and produce more pollution in the process. And more pollution=less attractiveness. Nothing to fix there, just items working as intended.

Or does <"This is the era of industrialisation! To hell with the tree-hugging leaf-lickers!", declares Lord Footprint.> sound like something, an environmentalist would say?

They need to change the + to a - or change the -8 to -2 either way one needs to be changed....
