Title: Strat Damage = Downtime Calculations
Post by: LTCClark on January 31, 2018, 12:29:13 PM

Is there a method to calculate the strat downtimes and how they effect downtimes for base objects?

I know that the downtimes are set to 180 and you start with 30 mins downtime for objects on the base

However i am looking for the equation to calculate per 1%

IE buildings down = 1%

i know the equation would be something like this

OBJ_Downtime = (StratOBJDamagedPercent * x) + 30

Basic object downtime is 30 minutes.
Damage to factories can increase that by up to 120 additional minutes.
So an ammo bunker destroyed at ammo factory  = 50% would be down for 30+60=90 minutes.

yes but I was looking for the 1% variable for the equation

IE for every 1% = downtime increase

I guess skuzzy or hitech would have to answer it

120 minutes/100 percent= 1.2 minutes, or 1 minute, 12 seconds.  So downtime would be 30+(1.2*percentage down).

I wish the clip board had a simple explanation somewhere relevant in it that explains damage and down time from a strat and a field\task group perspective. Like a clip board map information sheet. Though the down time for individual objects is probably one of the best double edged swords in years introduced to the game.

You can't divide 120 by 100?  :uhoh  :bolt:

yes I can divide that easily which would be 1.2

so you are saying that for every 1% the strat is reduced from 100  IE 90% = objectdowntime of 30 + 1.2?

It would be 30+(90*1.2), which is 30+108, which is 138 minutes.
