what do these numbers mean? Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

couldn't find it in the manual or FAQ. in the info box there are three numbers after gov't, what do they mean?

example: Persia - Despotism (4.5.1).

what do 4,5 & 1 mean.

answer first, laugh at the newbie second.

They show the ratio of how you are spending income between science, tax, and luxuries.

Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

commerce split up, as WrapStorm said. it's a ratio, but it'sd always the percentage/10 (ie, it can say 5.5.0 and it will not be changed to the ratio 1:1:0)
so your numbers mean
40% tax
50% science
10% luxery

Suffering from ads?

Does the released Strat guide help here? The PtW one was kinda crap, and there's volumes not documented that has been found out here.

A "Best of Apolyton" undocumented features and hints would be pretty coll, yes?

If only...

Put an end to popups!

When I took a look at the Civ III manual, there is a clear illustration of the "info box" which explains all the other information found there, but these numbers do not even appear.

Nice.
