Just wondering what determines your land goals. I know probably length of each server, but is there a formula for figuring best amount for each server?

As much as possible until you destock

It would be a bit difficult to make a formula for each server.

But assuming you dont stock while growing(which you do on several strat/server combinations if you are doing it right) you will want to maximize 'Acres * Turns_left_til_destock' pretty much. This way to calculate it is most correct for techer on most servers.

Another way to do it that is better for other strategies is to calculate the total cost of growing 1 acre (jets, oil, tech requirements, construction costs and destruction costs summed up) and then comparing that to how much that acre will produce until the end of the reset. If it will earn you more than the cost you keep growing until the cost is equal to the earning power.

That's kind of what I meant. Say for example, if your a allx Rep casher in tourny, how many days left of round would u just start cashing?

Well with all-xp it should be rather simple to calculate the cost of one acre since you wont have to record jet and oil losses over several hits to average it out and such.

allx is pretty trivial

just average 1 turn growth with explore+building that one turn, so use your bpt

then compare that to cashing

add in added tech, and expensses change a bit if you want to go further
