Both are (60 seconds) * (1 red + 1 green + 1 blue + 1 military) * 300. Shouldn't 5 be more expensive or take production packs or something?

Steam just updated to 0.15.5 this morning and I checked in a new game to see if that is still in this release and it is. And advanced search of the forums is not working right now, so sorry if this is a duplicate. I couldn't find another report of it.

So now that I am looking for it, there are quite a few cases among the damage/shooting speed upgrades where two levels cost the same. Is this intentional? It just seemed weird so I figured I'd ask.

The percent increases stack on top of each other (added to the previous achievements). I recommended the devs make the descriptions a bit clearer in that they are additive, but it was filed as not a bug without a reason given.

It's not a bug. They just happen to cost the same. They do stack up so you basically just get more granularity over your upgrades.

The way bonuses are added should be pretty clear by looking at the bonuses window.

Understood that it's not a bug, but the in-game description would be a bit clearer if it included the word 'additional' in the increments beyond the first upgrade.
