Real Science Pace

New version 1. 2 as of 21. 02 - Gathering Storm update. Rise & Fall and Gathering Storm note. This mod works with expansions. However, it does not support any specific R&F nor GS "sciency" features or changes. Empire size impacts research speed. Science from population is drastically reduced and it's no more the deciding factor - what matters are Campuses, scientists, alliances with City States, Policies and of course Great Scientists. But there's a catch - every new Campus you build will decrease scientific buildings' output slightly (6%-9%, depending on the building). Science-related bonuses from Policies and City States are mostly halved (e.g. 100% bonuses are now 50%, 10% alliance bonus is 5% now). You need to carefully optimize your approach to research! Why this mod? In Civ6 there is no tech cost scaling based on the number of cities in your empire (a mechanic well known from Civ5). Also, there are no buildings that increase science output by percentage. It would seem that designers wanted to apply anti-inflation approach. All science comes from patiently gathered +1, +2 yields, scientists, etc. Well, they were almost successful. Unfortunately, there are still mechanism that generate inflation-like effects. Science is generated by population (0,7 yield from 1 pop). Doesn't seem much? Well, this is the main cause of late-game huge science output as it provides more than 40% of your science and even more in wide-empires. Scientists and science buildings provide only 10-15%
