No empire-wide pop scaling

Thanks for explaining, I didn't notice that this mod is now for an older version.

In v3.0.3, the definitions set by this mod were removed from the definition files, and the devs added an option at the start of a new game instead. Therefore, this mod does not work correctly in v3.0.3. As far as I know, it can't be modded in because set per-game, at the start.

This mod is no longer working for me after being tested with no other mods.

@p0xus @ahnkra Thanks for the feedback. I am still trying out different values now, and I may make small changes here but also for a separate larger mod. Base growth was already at 3, and probably it does need to be lowered along with other changes.

Not sure what you mean by "since none of the vanilla planets/structures can reach 500."

But I can say for 100% certainty that the "MAX_CARRYING_CAPACITY", which is set to 500 by default, is the "High Pops" modifier after you reach 500 pops. I changed it and the modifier went away.

so just some feed back, after installing and starting a new game, i discovered population growth to be something out of hand (single planet growth rate was a staggering 12.8) mind you i have mods that add alot to the percentage growth but not that much... read somewhere else that the new game patch also increase base growth from 1 to 3 on planets, can you reset that to one with this mod? In my test I had 58 pops on my homeworld by year 10

I'm not sure MAX_CARRYING_CAPACITY has any direct effect on "high pops" modifier, since none of the vanilla planets/structures can reach 500.

This affects only empire-wide pop cost scaling. No change to planetary capacity right now. In a separate mod, I plan on making more changes after some testing.

Can you add a "MAX_CARRYING_CAPACITY" override in your mod as well? This is the 500 pop cap that introduces the "High Pops" negative modifier to base growth. (-2.9 of the 3)

Im looking for one that removes it all! put things back the way they were. Worked just fine for me.
