Allegiance decay
Hi,
Was wondering if someone knew the rate at which allegiance decays from a world that is under no culture influence, whether that be friendly or hostile?

A world without any culture will just sit at its default allegiance, which is determined by its distance from your homeworld. Culture can raise this value, but a lack of culture will not cause it to lower over time. Only the presence of enemy culture will do that.
However, if your homeworld moves, it doesn't just suddenly adjust to the new max allegiance. It decays to it (if it is lower). I'm wanting to know that rate.
To clarify a bit more what I'm doing/looking for, in experimenting with a buff that applies allegiance to a world, I have discovered two things:
The affect I'm looking for, is to boost the allegiance of a world by a set % and then hold it there. Not have it quickly run off to the allegiance cap or slowly decay back down. My best bet, unless someone knows another way, is to setup a buff system that does a once application of the %age I want, then does a periodic reapply at the rate of decay (seems I've noticed that the rate is less than 1% per whatever and the UI merely displays the whole number).
I want to say it is 0.1 allegiance per second but I've changed it in my own mod a long time ago so I could be off. It's defined in the Gameplay.constants file if you want to look it up exactly. IIRC its the same as the max culture decay rate.
Thanks, Goa! Interestingly enough, even though I used Notepad++ to search all my reference files for all instances of "allegiance", it didn't pick up any of the times it was used in gameplay.constants.

The following are also interesting:
allegiancePassiveGainRate 0.000347222
allegiancePassiveLossRate -0.000347222
allegianceFriendlyMaxGainRate 0.000694444
allegianceEnemyMaxLossRate -0.000694444
allegianceGainFromCultureMax 0.1
The "passive" (in gameplay.constants speak) meaning not-in-culture changes are basically half of the ones with "active" culture.
