What is the formula for calculating the amount of LP gained from a curiosity based on it's quality, base LP, and your learning ability?
Example: The base LP for a seer's bones is 600 at quality 10 (I think). If it's quality 59 and I have 320% learning ability, what will I get from it when it's done?

Re: Curio LP
Same as for EVERYTHING in this game: base * sqrt (q / 10). Anything that provides LP is then multiplied by your learning ability.Ninijutsu wrote:What is the formula for calculating the amount of LP gained from a curiosity based on it's quality, base LP, and your learning ability?

Opinions expressed in this statement are the authors alone and in no way reflect on the game development values of the actual developers.

Re: Curio LP
BaseLP * sqrt(Q/10) * (LA/10)
So...
600 x sqrt 5.9 x 3.2
4,663 LP
So...
600 x sqrt 5.9 x 3.2
4,663 LP

Re: Curio LP
that "(LA/10)" irks me. the /10 doesn't fit. Learning Ability comes in percentage thus 320% is just 3.2x, In no way does (320/10) = 3.2.cobaltjones wrote:BaseLP * sqrt(Q/10) * (LA/10)

Well he didn't seem to understand how it factored into the equation so I made it simple for him.

Re: Curio LP
I have no issue with that, it's more the phrasing. You weren't wrong, it's just how I see it in my head. I personally would've not put in the /10 on the learning ability, so instead it'scobaltjones wrote:Well he didn't seem to understand how it factored into the equation so I made it simple for him.
LP = BaseLP * sqrt(Q/10) * LA
purely since it is % based.

Re: Curio LP
If it wasn't in percentage form, I'd agree. You don't have a natural 100 learning ability, you have a natural 100% learning ability, which when speaking about in non percentage forms is 1, not 100.sabinati wrote:it's LA/100 durp

Re: Curio LP
Yes but for the purposes of my equation it should have been /100 derp.

Re: Curio LP
yeah but you aren't multiplying by 100% or 360%, you're multiplying by 1 or 3.6, respectivelyApocalypsePlease wrote:If it wasn't in percentage form, I'd agree.
