Forum:Subsector Interstellar Trade Calculation

Forums: Index > Watercooler > Subsector Interstellar Trade Calculation

I am going through the Magyar Sector and am filling out the subsector data. In that sector I saw that all of the economic data is listed as part of the Wuan Technology Association. I want to split the Wuan from the generic Confederation worlds, and do the same with other multi-system member states. Using this page, Magyar Sector/economic, I can verify and calculate most of the economic values, but I cannot calculate the "interstellar trade" value. For example, Clan has BCr848.

What is the calculation for that value in relation to the economic data?

That is a surprisingly difficult question to answer without digging back through the raw data. Trade_Map_Summary has more of the data, but not the numbers you are specifically looking for. The trade and passenger numbers are generated by looking at pairs of worlds then calculating the trade for them and adding it up. I took the Solomani confederation as a whole for the calculation purposes, rather than splitting out the member states. Depending on how interested you are in the numbers, I could dig up the original and process that, or you could estimate based upon the whole of the confederation.

When I sum up the trade values for the Clan subsector I only get around BCr300, so there is a lot of value I am missing. Should I be adding something from the passenger values?
