In OOTP16 Error Ratings run from .53 to 1.33, centered on 1.00 for 1871 as a for instance. Every year is cowculated individually and all years have a 1.00 center. The high/low spread can vary a bit year to year depending on the things it depends on. Modifiers determine how many errors that actually generates per year. I know this because I have calculated these ratings personally since ver.10 or so. Actually to be fair my computer does the calculations. I just feed it data. And carrots.

Only the last 3 (for OOTP16 that is 2012, 2013, 2014) years are recalculated for each version so Version 12's ratings are as they were in 12.
