Low Cost Tech broken in Gold?

[PvK]

The formulae I derived from looking at Version 1.5something wasn't geometric (no ^2). It added a linear amount to the increment at each step:

Low - each level adds Cost x 1.
(5000, 10000, 15000, 20000, ...)

Medium - level 2 cost twice level 1, then each level thereafter costs (Level - 0.5) x Cost.
(5000, 10000, 22500, 40000, ...)

High - each level adds (Level - 0.5) x Cost x 2.
(5000, 20000, 45000, 80000, ...)

In other words, Low is linear increase, Medium increases at each level by a linear amount, and High costs twice as much for each level (after the first) as Medium.

At least, that's what it looked like to me.

Oh, never mind, that is geometric, and almost exactly as you say... just another way of expressing it.

Although, your medium formula doesn't give the right value for level 1.

OK, thanks for the answers.
