Economic Ranking and completion of buildings

Aloha all

I have a question about the points scored towards domestic economic ranking. When I seize control of a province and it has say ... a partially completed airport, and then I commit resources to completing that airport, do I receive full or partial points for completing the airport?

I believe that as far as your economic score is concerned you get the complete points for finishing that building unit whether or not it was damaged first. This is the way I see it as if you take any of your building unit scores and divide them by how many you build you will see that there are no remainders in the division. This would suggest that there are never any partial points for economic units.

Well thought about trying that, but I have too many games open and wars on several of them. Stopping construction on all of them save some partial buildings is not a solution for me at the moment. Perhaps if there was someone out there who could give us a hand -- someone who only is doing 1 round and who has the ability to construct a few partially completed buildings and determine point values earned.

I have looked into it and it appears that you do receive partial credit on buildings. The math says so, you do not get partial credit for killing a half health unit though. Even if you kill a unit with only 1 hit point left it will still count as 1 unit killed. You can verify this by taking any true combat score, not AI scores, and dived that by the number defeated and the result will always be a whole number. If there were any partial credits this would not be true.

Contrarily if you take your economic scores and divide them by the number built you will see that some are not whole numbers. This means that you did receive partial credit of some sort in your buildings. How it's defined I do not know but the math makes it true.
