Is inheritance working as intended?

Postby Jalpha » Tue Mar 22, 2016 3:37 am

Now I'm no mathematics expert, in fact I'm pretty sure I have discalculia, but when I look at the following figures they just don't seem right. You know when you aren't sure if you know how to spell a word, and you write it anyway and it doesn't look right so you write it again differently and you go "Ah yes, that's how it's supposed to look."

Body was buried with skull attached. Figures in attached images.

If this is working as intended then so be it, however it may be the cause of some distress to a player upon discovering that the death mechanics are not functioning as described.

It looks right I think. I don't think the initial 10 stats that your character starts off in is counted towards the 60% total gain for burying the entire body after inheriting. So take the numbers of the character that died and subtract 10 from it and then do the 60% gain. x3 I think. Maybe I'm mistaken my brain isn't working well atm.

With my poor understanding of mathematics those numbers also work out to be incorrect as the figures are meant to round down not excessively up if I recall correctly.

True. ;o It looked good on the first 4, but then got to per and below and it seems off. Was actually going to ask if you ate any food or if those were the stats you started with

I id some playing around and i think i figured out how they come up with the number and i assume its to take the falling below base stats when inheriting a 10 stat char.

(((Stat-10)*0.6)+10)/2

41 31 18.6 28.6 19.3
41 31 18.6 28.6 19.3
42 32 19.2 29.2 19.6
42 32 19.2 29.2 19.6
39 29 17.4 27.4 18.7
17 7 4.2 14.2 12.1
43 33 19.8 29.8 19.9
37 27 16.2 26.2 18.1

so thats my guess at why your stats look that way.

I'll update with the values of the skills on that list as I relearn them. Posting here mostly for future reference.

looking at this id say your abilities only have the 30% given back to you i would expect for some reason you are bugged or the calculation is wrong, but then i would need to see other peoples before and after res data to tell that.

I wonder if it could be that burying the skeleton whole (with head attached) only registers as the body and you need to separate the two and bury them that way to get the full bonus
