The supply index is one of the less known and hardy understood indexes in Simcountry but does have an influence on your economy.
The supply index can have a value between 0 and 100. The value depends on the availability of all the materials a country needs.
If the country has any material, ammo or a service with a negative quantity, the supply index loses 10 points. If two are negative, the index loses 20 points.
If 10 or more products have negative quantities, the supply index will be 0.
When the supply index has a value lower than 80, it starts influencing the welfare index of the country.
The influence depends on the other indexes but a low supply index can reverse the influence of high health, education, transportation and employment indexes as the computation of the country welfare index depends on the minimum of these values rather than the average.
To prevent any negative influence of the supply index, it is important to make sure all materials are available in your country and the supply index is at 80 or higher.
The welfare index depends on the supply index + 40 and with some attention to it, you can easily reach 120.
Between the values of 100 and 120, the welfare index can influence the production in the corporations in your country by up to 7%.
All changes in the indexes take some time to start influencing your economy. There are no jumps in the welfare indexes or in the production levels in corporations.
This is an easy improvement.
Fix the supply index.
The text is intended to explain the supply index. There is no change or any planned change to these functions. |

We have a document planned on indexes but we bumped into some bad situations and thought that this info might help some. |

Thankyou Andy.
You're right that not many of us pay much attention to supply index because we didn't really know how it worked. This is very useful information!
Hugs and respect
