I recently dumped some ability points into hardware dealer connections and I have a gold account but both hardware bonuses do not seem to be cumulative. I am just wondering if The great and mighty Sir Emi could fix this or if it was intentional.

But once you've pressed buy it deducts it, it just doesn't show in the 'estimator thing'

Eg:
Upgrade details:     +50 Mhz CPU
Total cost:    120 HPD    20% Gold discount    

Finances:
42,950.19 HPD (-116)

Thanks to my extra 3%

Alright I checked my finances and it deducted 114000 HPD when I purchased 500 GB so I calculated it out and...

It must have 500*300*0.8 = 120000*.95 =114000. So it applied my gold bonus then once it got that price it applied my faction bonus.

Instead 500*300*0.75 = 112500 so instead of combining both bonuses the game cheated me out of 1500 hpd.

You nearly made me cry  2
Shhh don't tell the others 
Also you use that downloadhelper plugin aswell hey  14
I prefer http://www.video2mp3.net/ to download youtube videos now, is easier than getting them in MP4 then converting them to MP3 which I have to to put them on my phone/MP3 player

Don't mind me, i'm just being irrelevant to the topic
I had a feeling the hardware wasn't quite right but I never bothered to calculate it, nice find  7

All bonus's and such are applied after the GOLD bonus like your first calculation says.

The Gold bonus is an independent bonus. It doesn't get stacked with the ability bonuses.

So 100 HPD becomes 80 HPD as a base start for the ability bonus.
