Convert pops and qualifying generated income into Power, see the shared cap, and measure the gap to a target Degree.
Live calculator
Every 180 pops recorded by eligible towers contributes 1 Power. The game counts complete units, so 179 pops contributes 0, while 180 contributes 1. The tool shows this raw contribution separately from effective Power after the cap.
Pops and generated income are alternatives inside one category, not two independent 90,000-Power allowances. Each source is converted to whole Power, the results are combined, and the category is capped at 90,000. Income already used therefore reduces the useful room left for pops, and vice versa.
With no generated-income contribution, 16,200,000 pops fills the shared category: 90,000 Power multiplied by 180 pops per Power. Any pops beyond that remain visible in raw input but cannot raise effective Power from this category.
Every $45 of qualifying generated or bonus income contributes 1 Power. With no pops, $4,050,000 fills the shared category. This is income generated and recorded by relevant towers, not the cash currently sitting in the player's balance and not money spent on sacrifices.
A target Degree uses the total effective Power from all categories. “Other current Power” lets you include cash, tiers, extra Tier 5s, or Totems without re-entering the full Degree calculator. The result reports whether the remaining pops/income capacity can reach the target; it never recommends an amount beyond the category cap.
Move to the full Degree Calculator to balance categories, the Sacrifice Calculator for tower inputs, the Totem Calculator for Geraldo, or the Degree 100 planner for the maximum target. The Degree mechanics guide explains the calculation order.
180 pops contribute 1 Power. Only complete conversion units count.
Pops and generated income share a 90,000 Power cap. Pops alone fill it at 16,200,000 pops.
Yes. Their raw contributions are combined and then limited to 90,000 effective Power.
No. Degree 100 requires 200,000 effective Power, while the entire pops/income category can supply at most 90,000.
It stops when the selected target is already reached or when the shared pops/income category is capped. In the capped state, another Power category is required.
