Fix ENY

[Tank-Ace]

no, I just don't have the math skills to develop a formula that will perfectly (or even closely) adjust ENY to arena numbers.

People talk about the coading all the time, yet most could not coad a slolid wall.

Again, can I use hypotheticals to represent my case? And I have no idea how exactly ENY is calculated aside from that its percentage based, so thats another hinderance to showing you how its different.

so you dont know how a parabolic curve works but yet you offer it as a solution.  so either you are trolling or you are being boneheaded.  perhaps both.

ah ok, i see you are trolling.

you are the one trolling.......just sayin

and now I trolled you.....its a never ending circle

I'm not saying the formula would nessicarily be that of a parabola (or that I know how to make such a formula for ENY).

I'm just saying that if you take a parabola (half an upside down parabola, actually) and place it over top of a graph, x axis being arena population, y axis being percentage needed for ENY to take effect, you get a general picture of what I'm talking about (the higher the numbers, the smaller the percentage needed before ENY starts to limit planes, and the lower the numbers, the larger the percentage needed).

Still trying to work out an exact formula, but not having much luck

frustrating trying to explain to him that he's asking for something that is already in place.

How is ENY calculated then? Do you know or are you just going based on ingame observations? And if its in place, its clearly not effective at high numbers, and needs to be replaced.

Edit: so you're telling me this is roughly what the curve of when ENY kicks in looks like?

you mean this

Yesterday knits had 153 players to Rook 137 to Bish 105. ENY for Knits was 3.3.
I believe Irish One was asking if that made any sense.  It seems based on those umbers that Rook and Knits would have larger ENY cut offs. Then I looked at the map status and Bish had 32 Bases, Knits had 20, Rooks had 25.


So does the map status (number of Bases held by each country) factor in?
