Production bonus not working??

from Stardock Forums
I've recently started a couple of games where I've spent ability points on Military or Social production. I haven't seen any noticeable effect. For example, if I've got 50% Military Prod. and no Social bonus, I'd expect to see my Military Prod be higher than my Social on my starting planet if I slide them both to 100% and compare. No bonus production seen either. Comments?

I think Military, Social, and Research should add up to 100%. If you put them all at approximately 33%, what happens then?

If I set them all equal, I still see no noticeable bonus for having a 50% Military production bonus ability.

As I've said, I've experimented with the Social production bonus ability pick, and the same thing happens. No bonus that I can see. The Economics pick works for sure, haven't tried Research yet. But Social and Military don't seem to be working.

Racial bonuses to Social and Military production are broken (they don't do anything, so don't waste your points on these). This has been reported on the Bug thread. Bonuses to Technology do work though.

No - the FREE part of the tech bonus work - a 30% research bonus will give you 20% extra FREE research, but you don't get the 10% extra capacity.

As soc/mil prod give extra capacity ONLY, it would seem that it's the extra capacity thing that's bugged.
