I'm playing on a 9.4 server and confirmed with an admin it's all stock settings and I'm getting 33% occupancy penalty when living with just 1 more person in the house.

Wasn't there be supposed to be just 10% penalty for 2 people from patch 9.3/9.2 ? I have found this official blog post clearly showing 10% for 2 people https://play.eco/updates/skills/housing/12-12-2020and a picture from that post https://i.imgur.com/VYq2gbV.png

Was this reverted in 9.4?

Yes, that is correct, the system was rebalanced in 9.3.

I believe the in-game Ecopedia needs to be updated then.

Yep, noted that internally.

What are the new numbers?

33% for 2
50% for 3
60% for 4
66% for 5
71% for 6
75% for 7
78% for 8

Then very small increases after that. Keep in mind that while these penalties were increased, for every resident the after-balance system assigns one free room of every type with no penalty, which hasn't been the case before.

Hi.
Two years later, the ecopedia still is misleading =/

The system is actually going to change in Update 10 to work differently, hence no change was made. How it works is now configurable via server config.

In my line of work, you don't ship code without the associated documentation update. But I understand. Looking forward for update 10. Thanks for the awesome game

Our systems change heavily during EA all the time, hence the documentation unfortunately has no priority currently.
