the cache gives 8 hours but it will not go over your cap

Just opened one. It NEARLY capped my mining.
HOWEVER, My mining caps in 7.2 hours, if I didn't cap, then the cache must be giving only 7 hours now!
I also checked this with my research. I had 8141 per hour at the time. Got about 56k research, which is 8000*SEVEN!
I should have taken a screenshot but I didn't realize that at the time.

Heh.



I'd say double-check your numbers, such as the capping time for your minerals, and if this still appears to be the case then send in to Dan for support. They still say 8 hours.

It'll be sometime before I get another cache, I'll be paying attention to the amounts.
If it does come out to seven hours, I'll be sending Dan a support ticket.

The problem is that you can only hold seven hours of mining production. The cache grants hours of production and cannot grant fractions of hours. It will grant you the number of hours you can hold and absolutely no more, not even decimal points. So if you open one, but one resource caps after 7.9 hours, it cannot give you the 8th hour's production or it would go over your cap (which it cannot do).

Since when? My caches always completely fill my mineral bar and my research gives me the red warning about hitting rank capacity. And both of them cap in 7.something hours.

I was inferring based off of the information given here, although if that does indeed occur then I could certainly be wrong.

Dude, you obviously didn't comprehend what I read.
my mining NEARLY capped but it DIDN'T cap. my mining caps in slightly MORE than seven hours.
