The BP limit for research is changed, 1/3 of BP rounded up. Minimal increment is 0.5BP.

That's the thing... I should have had it figured into the INCREASED BP, because it was ready prior to this. Shortchanging me for the effort I'd put forth on it isn't fair, frankly. Now, instead of being closer to the nations I'm trailing, I'm even farther behind IN SPITE OF the work I've done.

Why? The BP is still under construction, you got the 0.5BP advance for it. And you can converty $150 of what was spent into another, already completed 0.5BP.

Looking at reports, NS also should have an extra 0.5BP besides what is listed above, due to the almost finished BP.
Anyone else?

I don't think Carthaginian did get any advance on that one.  The CSA figure appears to be a flat 1.5 x 14 = 21.  

If I understand the CSA sim report correctly, the BP under construction is more than 75% complete at the end of 1908 - perhaps in cases like this, the player should get 1.5 BP upon completion of the project?

P3D

Rewording it.
The CSA have 21.5BP and another $170 or whatever amount already invested in BP. That translates to 22BP and $170-150=$20 forward the new 0.5BP.

Gran Columbia 30
Columbia   25
Caribbean 4.5
Amazonas 0.5

This is wrong, P3D.

QuoteGRAN COLOMBIA:  SECOND HALF REPORT, 1908

Area:      Population:             BP:            IC:              Revenue
Heartland   35.40 million   13.0     87.0   122.40
Caribbean     8.16 million     3.0     22.0     30.16
Amazonas del Sur         1.00 million     0.5      3.0      4.00
Coquimbo     0.30 million     0.0      0.0      0.06
Total   44.56 million   16.5   112.0   156.62

16.5 x 1.5 = 24.75

How'd GC suddenly gain an extra 5 BP?

Sorry... when I saw the 'MK & Baltikum' corrected remark, I thought that all the othe figures in the original post were corrected, too... was wondering how that big a gap survived. ;)

Nah, that's just how I felt when I saw my hard work to close in on GC and the UNK stripped away. ;)

Mods:  In H2/1908, I invested $19.22 to begin another BP, not suspecting that this change was in the works.  Would y'all be copacetic with me re-allocating these funds into other civilian ec-dev type projects?
