Now, per the formula noted there, the current fusion reactor output level should vary by universe by some static integer. Yet this does not appear the case in Standard.

In Standard, with level 15 Energy Tech, the multiple is 2.7386622 for level 11 reactor, but is 2.7612346 for level 12 reactor. Therefore, even if the multiple is related to game speed, it seems also related to fusion reactor level and possibly related also to Energy Tech ( I have not determined this).

I'm upgrading my Energy Tech, and shall compare the figures then.

Energy tech is in fact a variable in the formula for fusion reactors, the higher it is the better the output.

I am aware.

The formula noted for fusion reactor:

Where a = Fusion Reactor Level
and b = Energy Tech Level

30 * a * (1.05 + b * 0.01) ^ a

The thing is, this formula underestimates output - significantly

An additional multiple should precede the '30'

What this additional multiple is contingent upon is what I'm hoping to determine
