That is how the Range appears for my Nature's Bounty Spell.

What is the difference between Range and Maximum Range?

Is the 7% moon phase bonus applied to the Max Range?

If I cast at 107 range and moon phase changes to a lesser bonus, what happens to my spell?

oh, so range is only a basic value and maximum range is what counts? Then I guess it is safe to say that squares is the unit of measure.

"As I have understood range is the distance that the spell is going with the current mana spending."

I have not added Mana to a geomancy with a 10 basic range, but it is in place at over 30 range.

The casting moments spell range is only thing that matters. Spells affect even to the other side of map if you move your city. As I have understood range is the distance that the spell is going with the current mana spending. And maximum range is the maximum distance the spell is going to travel with any mana spending.

Thanks for testing what I had already written (did you need to?).
After this unnecessary mess I'd like to clarify the question in case someone who knows stumbles in this thread: what is the unit of measure of spell range?

It effects both mana production and spell power. With the full moon at that a 7% bonus to each. I'm pretty certain (99.9%) that it has no effect at all on the range of the spell.

And having said that and gone back to check it does. So if a spell ordinarily has a distance of 100 you can cast it at 107 when there is a full moon. My bad.

thank you for testing it ^^

actually moon phase has weary much to do whit range.
i think.
since none of us knows for sure, i would say its early to dismiss it as "false rumor"
