Aha, thanks so much Mr-Miagi! I can't believe that accounted for so much disparity but it explains why the other formula I tested worked out fine.

Darned maths... I hate numbers.

Thanks again

I'm trying to work out a crafting calculation and having some issues. Can someone tell me where I'm going wrong?

I don't understand where the Easimar Steel score of 792.30 comes from in a Deepwell Capacitor.

Steel used in a Deepwell Capacitor has this weighting: CD=66% OQ=33%

With steel, the max CD is 650, for OQ it is 1000.

Here's my (wrong) calculation based on the Stat*1000/Maximum Cap formula
OQ = 377 *1000 / 1000 = 377 * .33 = 124
CD = 915, which is over the cap of 650 so its 650, which is 100% for the CD box. 1000 * .66 = 660

124 + 660 = 784, which does not match the value shown in SWGAide of 792.30

Help me SWGAide, you're my only hope.

You need to use more digits to the right of the decimal place as 66% in decimal is pretty much .66666666  to infinity....  10 places would be enough to get the precision we need for swg.

Code Select Expand

66 / 100 = .6666666666 # adjusted CD weight snipped for brevity

normally the formula would do this if cap was 1000
(915 / 1000 * 1000) * .6666666666  = 609.9999999999 #

However this steel CD caps at 650 thus the value used should be 1000 since that is the ceiling e.g:
1000 * .6666666666 = 666.6666666

33 / 100 = .3333333333 # adjusted OQ weight snipped for brevity
377 / 1000 * 1000) * .3333333333 = 125.6666667 # this steel OQ caps at 1000

Next we simply add up the results to get rating:
666.6666666 + 125.6666667 = 792.3333327

On resources tab, right click anywhere in the guards area and select mute sounds.

Can we add an option to disable sounds? I keep most things at low volume on my pc except voice and browser. The java app always starts at top volume and I literally jump out o my skin when I start the java program because I'm so used to sounds not being there and it's so loud. The non java apps seem to remember their volume setting.

I hate to ask because it's such a great app!

Munitions / Re: malab siliclastic ore

Last post by Lowy - Apr 30, 2022, 01:12 pm

Resource shifts are totally random in which resource spawns.  For example the Malab Siliclastic Ore also competes with 5 other siliclastic ores.  Each of those ores will spawn for 7-10 days on average.  You may get back to back ores of the same type as well or others and not get a Malab spawn for months as you are seeing.  Depending on the server you may get a dev to spawn it in, but if you're playing on Legends you should be able to find it on the bazaar.  It is very unlikely the staff would spawn in a resource.

General Discussion / Installation Error

Last post by Celine - Apr 30, 2022, 11:39 am

Hi all,

I have installed SWGAide for SWGEmu -> Finalizer Server.

However, I don't see any characters in the Main Tab, after installation on Windows 10. I can run SWGAIDE, but it does not show my characters.

I was able to connecto to my forum account in the SWGAide Settings.

Any ideas why no characters are shown? I also started the tool as Administator, still no characters visible.

All I see is: "SWG Install #1" but no characters below it.

I also tried to "Savemail" for both of my characters and it did work, still I'm not able to see my characters.

Munitions / malab siliclastic ore

Last post by Sir Bashahead - Apr 24, 2022, 04:35 pm

i have been hoping for 4 month to find any malab siliclastic ore for my munitions crafter to use.  Could someone reset the buffer for that ore, please.  the crystal crystalline gemstones have reset twice since the malab disappeared.  thanks

"Best Resources" are determined by the schematic requirements for the item you are making -- so there is no general "best" in resources, rather they are specific as listed in the schematic

Look at the schematics that your trader class has available and decide which resource qualities are important to the craft -- then search for resources that fill those needs

Best resource for what? CD/OQ? or SR/OQ? Bit of a weird question?
