Hi,
It seems astro rig boni are calculated on the base speed.
And nanos/overdrivers are calculated on the base speed too.
Afterwards both are added.
This means that having 3 nanofibers makes auxiliary thrusters next to useless (gtives 10m/s on your already 680m/s for example)
This also means it makes more sense to either astro rig or nano, but not both at the same time.
For other module / rig combinations e.g. cargo rigs the bonus seems to be calculated one after another
letting the boni to add up.
Is this intentional?
And why are the boni for those two things applied differently?
regards,

If I were to hazard a guess, it's probably some left over changes from the Great Nano Nerf, which was sadly before my time. Apparently everything went about 15km/s back in those days. Someone older should weigh in. |

Few years back, every goddamn ship you met was doing like 2k+ M/S with the "speedy ones" like crows, Vagabonds and the like doing anything from 4,7 to 13km/s and with some bonuses even more.
They nerfed that to hell and back.
Now all ships are slow. |

Nope. If you read the modules and rigs description, you'll see that they are subject to the dreaded stacking penalty.
"Penalty: Using more than one type of this module or similar modules that affect the same attribute on the ship will be penalized."

Cargo rigs and extenders are not subject to the stacking penalty, hence the absence of the warning in their description.

Very much so.

Because due to EVE doing module stacking by multiplication, stacking tons of various modules would lead to stupidly overpowered spaceships.

boni is not the plural for bonus you ape, bonuses is.

To put it simply; due to stacking, any more than 3 modules providing the same bonus will have next to no effect.

In german and latin (where the word likely originates from) it indeed is, but w/e you prefer

Just be aware. "Octopi" is NOT correct plural of octopus. Among several other words. Using the Latin ending in words make you look more like a douche than anything else. The use of "boni" sound ridiculous. |

Quick look on the interwebs reveals that octopi works, too.
And as I said it is the german ending, too. Is it douchy too to use the german ending, accidently?
Thanks for pointing out though. |

Octopi doesn't work because Octopus is rooted in Ancient Greek and therefore should not be subject to latinate pluralisation. The greek pluralisation should be Octopodes.
For bonus not only would the normal english plural be bonuses in the same way as we don't refer to people's ani...
As I understand it the latin root for bonus would be bonum which should pluralise as bona (in the same way as media is the plural of medium) and so boni would be the wrong suffix anyway...
I can't however comment on the German suffix. |

There is no universally agreed upon plural of "platypus" in the English language. Scientists generally use "platypuses" or simply "platypus". Colloquially, "platypi" is also used for the plural, although this is pseudo-Latin;[3] the Greek plural would be "platypodes". |

I would say a cynabal or a thorax would fit as a "platypodes" |
