More exact time of research

Post by Reg312 »

Warzone Guid lies about time of getting researches.
I've made more exact timings but my timings also lies...

Here is more exact time of research made by me: <see link in post below>
Accuracy of my data: plus/minus 30 secs
Also it assumes you research like robot and use infinite number of laboratories non-stop (but with pauses in 1-2 secs)

Start conditions: [no bases, 4-5 trucks], assuming all players started game from labs
Pause between each research: 2 sec (time to select next research)
Count of research facilities: infinite (is ok for team game)

Here is program which i used for calculations (windows!):

my program also can be used if you want to calculate research in your own mod

Say me if you see error in my data (not tested algorythm too much)

I thought Satellite Uplink was closer to 30 min, but maybe I'm thinking of 2.3 randomness.

This is really cool, thanks :) (bookmarked).
This is why some features aren't implemented: http://forums.wz2100.net/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=7490&view=unread#p87241

I suspecting my data can contain some mistakes,
e.g. expected time of Scourge Missile is 24:37, but in real multiplayer game Scourge was researched at 27-28 minute (need test it more carefully)

Looks like the new guide is more accurate and in line with this...
Moving back instead of forward
Seems to me absurd
