wealth calculation questions

[keylocke]

i was wondering about this..

how is wealth calculated (formula)? does the items need to be inside the stockpile to be considered as part of your wealth or is anything of value tagged as "haulable" considered as part of colony wealth?

As far as I understand, it relates to either being in a home zone, being in a stockpile, or both.

If you remove both a home zone and stockpile where items are, your wealth will drop -- and if you make the entire map a home zone and stockpile for funsies, your wealth will skyrocket on a world you're played a while and haven't cleaned up much stuff from.

No idea on the formula itself.

ah, thanks for the home zone bit..

now i have a better idea of how to arrange my trade zones and temporary stockpiles without skyrocketing my wealth..

Guessing completely so don't take my word for it here but it could be:

Amount of resources in stockpiles / colonists
