ME50 - 0.2%

As you can see, training your ME level from 0 to 10 reduces the waste from 10% to 0.91%, thus reducing the waste by over 9% in simply 10 levels, whereas training a further 40 levels (11-50) only takes off 0.7% (from 0.9% to 0.2%). The following graph ~~can better illustrate~~ the effect of training ME to ~~higher levels~~.

The Productivity Level of a blueprint, as mentioned above, affects the manufacturing time for each batch made with the blueprint. Specifically, it reduces the manufacturing time by (Productivity Level) / ( 5 + (5 * Productivity Level) ) which results in the following progression:

~~PL 1: 1/~~10 ~~reduction in time~~

PL0 - 0%

~~PL 2: 2/~~15 ~~reduction~~

PL1 - 10%

~~PL 3: 3/20 reduction~~

PL2 - 13%

~~PL 4: 4/25 reduction~~

PL3 - 15%

~~PL 5: 5/30 reduction~~

PL4 - 16%

...and so on.

PL5 - 17%

PL10 - 18.2%

PL50 - 19.6%

...and so on. From PL0 to PL1 your reduction in manufacturing time is 10% but from PL10 to PL50 only 1.4%.

The following graph illustrates the effect of training PL levels to your manufacturing reduction time in percentage.

*Note above graph : The ultimate maximum manufacturing reduction time when PL goes to infinity = 20%

For example, suppose that manufacturing a batch of something normally takes 60 minutes to manufacture at Productivity Level 0. At Productivity Level 5, this is reduced by 5/30, or 10 minutes, thus the manufacturing time for one batch is 50 minutes.

Increasing the Productivity Level of a blueprint is usually not as important as increasing the Material Level of a blueprint. It might be important in cases where the blueprint is being used to manufacture almost continuously or in cases where the manufacturing time for a single batch is extremely long.

No matter how high you get PL your manufacturing reduction time can not become more than 20%.
