[PB59] Charriu welcomes all the townfolk

[Charriu]

Yes, it's all part of my little monster: PB59 micro planning tool

What I did there is taking my dotmap and plan out which tiles every city works at the growth level I want to achieve there. I also expected every city to make at least 1 commerce from trade routes. With all of that I just counted together all the commerce I earn per turn.

Then I calculate all the city maintenance, civic maintenance (based on estimated civics in play) and unit maintenance (based on an estimated amount of units). I already have all these calculations already in place in my turn planning tool which is the sheet 'CurrentMicro'. The TL:DR of what I did there was to reimplemented all the city and empire management calculations inside a spreadsheet. I more or less play civ 4 in a spreadsheet.

With all those calculations already at hand it was easy to pre-calculate all the maintenance costs for a bigger empire. And yes these numbers are essentially achieved when running 100% gold.

EDIT: If you look at my spreadsheet, know that you only need to adjust values in green fields and everything else recalculates.

EDIT2: My spreadsheet is so good by now, that I don't need to run an actual sim, which was my goal with this. I find it very tedious to iterate across all these different plans in-game.
