do you know what an asymptote is?

No, you can never get to 100% production or refining efficiency, and it's not fictional, that number is needed to create a base figure , if Devs lower the base amount you would need less materials.

Why bother complaining about the logic of things, when you're not interested in the logic of things? Just to summarize this thread so far.

Think of it like how Ikea does things. The manual describes the minimum number of components needed to build a piece of furniture, yet you need more glue, screws, etc. if you want to keep it together for more than a year.

Yeah, I know, analogies on forums...

Hmm maybe its because your in STC and judging by all the T1 loot we pick up after engagements with you you clearly don't understand how corp production works or why this is a pain.  When I am assigning specific tiers of production between all 7 of the production guys in just PHM I would like a generalized idea that is somewhat accurate materials list to hand over to production guys who may not have access to the main materials folders.  When your burning through 100 million of each ore/plants a week and half a billion  in production little things like this save someone like myself hours of micromanaging.

I'll take your emotional distress and cognitive deficiency, and raise you how I usually do it:

I'm sorry I have this thing called a Job and a Life.  Maybe if My mom would let me move into her basement I might have time to upload wonderful screen shots of things I did on the internet today.  Besides I don't have the exact skills of 7 different EP characters or am I going to require all my producers to submit their stats every week along with an itemized outlook of how they spend their EP along with their blood type, Date of birth, and favorite color

Back on topic, 

Thanks to Anni, I see now that the components list is not realistic and I will have to "assume" with a %.  I guess since the Industry 2.0 patch I wasn't too worried about production seeing how I was only looking after myself in the past few corps and not actually managing.  Thanks Anni for clearing it up.

so, you had to guess a +/- pre patch, and now you have to after patch.

pre patch it was even impossible to calculate an accurate number due to random CT damage,
now it is possible to calculate it on the digit even with the rather inaccurate relation display.

so what exactly is your issue that makes you insult spreadsheet-users?

Doek, I forgot to update my spreadsheet ...

So O Negative, 5'10, 84kg, hangs left.

I been using 15%.  I may narrow it down to 10%.

Maybe I should have added @Doek instead of being vague.  I have nothing aganist spreadsheets or their users I just spend my time doing other stuff I like, drinking beer, pvping and midget porn, then to keep jumping back to a spreadsheet for every little thing we produce.

I blot out everything in all my screenshots.
