Is level 40 the maximum level? or can you go higher? Either way I think this should be explicitly noted.

- Does it really matter? by my calculations, with no miners for bonus, it would take 995 days to pay for itself, and even with a full complement of 4% miners it still would take 642 days to pay for itself so I can't see it being too popular. And that's not including the cost of crystal or the cost of power.


Could someone explain the production value equation?

It is given as " floor(30∙X∙1.1X) "

First of all, WHAT is "floor" and secondly, when I punch in a level I get numbers that are way higher than the values in the chart. For example level 20 is:

floor(30∙20∙(1.1*20))

equals floor(19,800)

the chart gives a value of 4036. So, "Floor" would have to be < .25

Someone explain plz.
