Default Seasonal Spirits %

Anyone know offhand the exact % that seasonal spirits gain in prefered seasons as opposed to off season?

I think it's up to 25% (AFAIK) but I was wondering if anyone had a hard number.

Looks like it will have to be tested. I guess you can tell us when you find out

Well here are the #'s there is some small amount of variance.

code:
Season       SumL(44)  SprH(7)  WinW(13)  FallB (53)
Early Summer 44 8 13 39
Mid Summer 55 7 11 53
Late Summer 55 7 10 53
Early Fall 55 7 9 53
Mid Fall 49 6 13 66
Late Fall 46 5 13 66
Early Winter 45 5 13 66
Mid Winter 39 7 16 59
Late Winter 36 7 16 56
Early Spring 34 7 16 54
Mid Spring 44 8 14 46
Late Spring 44 8 13 42

So For SL's it was 25% Maximum Loss and Gain for on and off seasons. The Spring Hawk lost 28.57% of it's HP in off season (5) and only gained 14.2% (Could have been a bad year for Spring Hawks). Winter Wolves gained 23.1% and lost 30.7% (Bad year for Wolves too). Fall Bear gained 24.5% and lost 20.7% in it's bad time. So I unless they are coded differently, it seems to be able to vary quite a bit.

Damn you Gandalf for making me answer my own question!

It is at the top of the Messages screen that comes up at the beginning of each turn or when you hit 'm'.

The interesting thing to note is that the peak benefit is in the late season, not in the mid season, as might be expected.
