Auto NM Balancing - Loss of 7 and 8 NM?

I just had two turns where my NM auto balanced downward from around 160 by 7 or 8 NM. I'm aware of auto balancing, but was surprised by such a large number.

Is the large number intentional? Has it changed with the latest patch?

AFAIK the code has not actually changed. The probability of loosing or gaining NM is directly relative to the difference between the current NM and 100 NM. This calculation is run a number of times per turn, which would explain loosing a number of NM in one turn to auto-balance.

BTW, somebody--I'm not sure who ATM--created a small mod to reduce this calculation to once per turn. I's simply a parameter change in one of the .opt files.

You can find it in the CW2 modding forum.

Besides 160NM is a pretty high level, it makes sense that the normalization loss would be high.
