Question about Offensive/Defensive/System Values

posted on March 7th, 2009, 4:20 am

This isn't a support issue but I would like to ask how exactly these values are calculated. Looking over the files this does not appear to be a value that is generated on the fly but is giving by the developers. So I'm curious if the developers use a mathematical formula to calculate these values or just use gut instinct when applying them.

no from things they have said its a formula and they use a program that they (i assume) have written a program that makes the odf files.

I'm actually curious to what the formula is.

actually its the other way round, most unit stats like the actual shield hitpoints are calculated out of the three elementary attributes, so there are many forumlas. its quite some MB of data and scripts for our file manager. as time allows it i will work on a releasable version of the file manager and a documentation on how to edit or change the formulas and how they work, jsut at the moment all time is consumed by developing and bughunting
