Question about base production rate...

[DeletedUser37343]

A friend and I have just started playing FoE, and are still in Iron Age. We’ve noticed that the base production of the blacksmith on her game is 13 supplies/15 minutes. The base production on mine is 18 supplies/15 minutes. We both have a 20% boost, but we can’t figure why my base production is 5 higher than hers at 15 minute interval. Mine is higher than hers at all intervals.
Thanks!

Go into your Town Hall and look at your boosts then look at your friend's boosts to see what is different.

Any time you look at a building's production, it will show you what it is with all of the boosts you have running at the time, including bonuses received from GBs. If you want to know the true base production of a building (no boosts applied) you can look them up in the Wiki.

Hi Ozyman,
Our boosts are identical @ 20%. Our base/starting production is what’s different. Mine is 18 per 15 minutes plus my 20% bonus gives me a boosted production of 22 in 15 minutes. Hers is 13 plus 20%, which gives her 16 supplies every 15 minutes.
The FoE Wiki shows base production of the blacksmith to be 13 units per 15 minutes while mine is 18.
The 18 is in black typeface, not in green as I’d figure a boosted value to appear like my 22 does.
Thanks for helping us figure this out, it’s got us really puzzled...

Screenshots or support ticket.

Edit: Screenshot of the supply boost tab from your town halls.

Here are shots of our town hall supply boosts:

Well in that case the problem is...

Can’t upload from photo library? What gives....

 

[DeletedUser31440]

Try resizing the photo, it may be too large for the forums.

An image of both your cities might be helpful too.

Ok, trying this again...
Here are shots of our Town Hall Boost screens...

And a shot of the resource..at 13 units/15 minutes, appears unbolted at this point, i.e. base production.

I have no clue why these other 2 images will not upload, all are <800kB. The town hall images are the same such that I cannot tell them apart. The resource shots are different in that one rate is 5, 13, 32, 53, 80 & 160 supplies for the 6 time allotments, and the other is 7, 18, 42, 70, 105 & 210 units respectively.
If anyone has any advice on uploading images, chime in. I uploaded 2 of four and cannot figure why the other 2 will not upload...no error messages pop up. I can drag, drop and nothing happens.

So do we get to see the other half of the picture? Or just want us to throw possible reasons against the wall and watch them not stick?

Edit: Simultaneous posting, disregard this one.

One of you two has an additional 20% boost in addition to the happiness boost, otherwise you would only produce 6 in a 5 minute not 7. What the boost is and why you can't find it is beyond me, but my gut reaction is user error.

Well, that's not true. The only time the game shows me boosted values is on the production option it is currently running. For instance, blacksmith showing 5, 13, 32, 53, 80, all in black, and then 320 in green for a helmet, because that is what it is producing right now. I have 20% enthusiastic, 5% haunted tower, 75% LoA, and no motivation.

This isn't the first report of a phantom 20% boost I've seen. I believe the other was about houses that were producing more than they should.

Then how do you explain this?

 

[DeletedUser29726]

Sometimes inno has given special startup boosts to 'lucky' new accounts (including 2 minute production cycles instead of 5 minute for instance). It's plausible one of your accounts has such a randomly granted bonus.

Difference between PC and mobile. The screenshots the OP provided are clearly from mobile. On PC, the boosted amounts without motivation are shown on the production screen, and if you mouseover, the amount shown incorporates all boosts and motivation. Mobile doesn't have mouseover, so the production screen shows unboosted base amounts unless the building is producing, then the boosted amount, including motivation, are shown in green on the item being produced.
