From the different RP calculators connected with NS (sunset, Spotlite, NS Economy...), which one is the 'good one'? -if there is a good one, that is. Not all give the same figures... Which one are people using mostly? Thank you for your advices and opinions.

A lot of people, myself included, use NSTracker (a derivative work of NSEconomy) because of its functionality (i.e., tracking your nation's stats over time) but I also like Sunset's detailed breakdown. Use whichever calculator you want. No one is going to think more or less of you based on which calculator you prefer, and if they do, they're not the kind of person you would want to be roleplaying with in the first place.

Also remember that calculators aren't official -- you're not required to use the figures given to you by a calculator to determine your government's spending. They're excellent tools to use as a guideline, but they're certainly not definitive.
