I hope someone can help point me in the right direction?
I have a little puzzle, that I cannot reconcile from what I have read....After the Crius changes (industry) I have 2 Obelisk BPOs - one with ME of 10% and the other of 9%; but both have identical production requirements in terms of components! Why hasn't the former become 'perfect'? Both are still showing the 'extra' Cargo Bay (81) and Construction Parts (51), when I would have assumed they would be reduced by '1' each.
The BPO requirements on the database show the 10% waste - and I thought I'd understood that, after the changes, then ME of 10% was the new 'perfect', especially when a ship has exactly 10% waste in components.
Or, given I was not active at the Crius change - have my BPOs not been changed accurately and I need to 'do something'? |

The whole material requirements formula has changed. ME research is only part of it. Teams and POS arrays also reduce materials. Also, it is calculated per batch not per run anymore.
Try setting builds for two runs on each blueprint, and compare results. Then try setting it for three runs. You will see differences between the -10% and -9% blueprints then. |

Or, given I was not active at the Crius change - have my BPOs not been changed accurately and I need to 'do something'? The BPOs should be the same post-Crius if they were the same Pre-Crius. If they are not still in research now, undelivered from a job that started pre-Crius, I doubt if you can get a GM to make any adjustments. Pre crius research that crossed patch day that was messed up
Note that rounding has changed. It used to be applied for a single run, and was round-to-nearest. Rounding is now applied to all runs, and is round-up or CEILING.
Consider a small fractional amount of waste, less than a full unit of material: 1 run: CEILING( 0.01 * 1 run ) = 1 and CEILING( 0.90 * 1 run ) = 1 10 runs: CEILING( 0.01 * 10 run ) = 1 and CEILING( 0.90 * 10 run ) = 9 100 runs: CEILING( 0.01 * 100 run ) = 1 and CEILING( 0.90 * 100 run ) = 90
So if you have ME 9% BPO with a low quantity of material, it can be the exact same as a ME 10% BPO when doing 1 run, but as you add more runs, the ME 10% BPO requires less material. |

Also note that base waste was increased from 10% to 11.1% (multiplied by 1 / 0.9), and extra materials were moved into base materials (thus gaining waste too), so some old BPO that were perfect are no longer.
Thank you both.
But on the last (quoted) - does this mean that the EVE Database has not been updated? ie it is now 11.1% and not 10% waste as it says?
The additional 'waste' I can understand if there are now further: implants; POS arrays; and Station upgrades that can further reduce wastage.
