Gobalopper Posted July 25, 2003 Author Share Posted July 25, 2003 Ok ladder points should now be accurate, I'm using a new system: Â $winner_percent = round($points_winner * 0.1); Â $loser_percent = round($points_loser * 0.1); Â $winner_exp = 1 / (pow(10, ($points_loser - $points_winner) / 400) + 1); Â $loser_exp = 1 / (pow(10, ($points_winner - $points_loser) / 400) + 1); Â $winner_diff = round(64 * (1 - $winner_exp)); Â $loser_diff = round(64 * (0 - $loser_exp)); Â if ($winner_diff < 0 && $winner_diff < -$winner_percent) $winner_points = -$winner_percent; Â else $winner_points = $winner_diff; Â if ($loser_diff < 0 && $loser_diff < -$loser_percent) $loser_points = -$loser_percent; Â else $loser_points = $loser_diff; Â $players[$winner] += $winner_points; Â $players[$loser] += $loser_points; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken124578 Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 I doubt many people on this forum can read PHP Gob. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 Anyone with some programming experience can read that.For who who can't:$... stands for a variable.= means that the left variable gets the value of what is on the right.when the line stated after "if" is true, then the line below it will be executed.Otherwise the line will be executed beneath "else"and ';' means the end of a "line"Dunno what "round" means, but it some sort of calculation method Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken124578 Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 Erm... there is no "round" in that code. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 Eh, unless you live in another reality, there it really is:$winner_percent = round($points_winner * 0.1); Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 I guess that points_winner and points_loser are the current ladderscores for the two players, right?The function "round" usually returns the integer closest to the argument, so round(2.4)=2 and round(2.67)=3, I don't speak PHP but I guess (and hope) that this behavior is normal for a programming language.Gobalopper, can you comment on the code? I think that I understand how it works, but it seems that the same general behavior can be achieved somewhat simpler; unless you are trying to reproduce some old scoring system. If so, how did that work?-JBPS I notice that I'm no longer a sandflea, does that mean that I'm vulnarable to wormattacks now ?? ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timenn Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 Ah thanks. What you stated about round is very likely to be true, and it makes sense too since you don't see points with numbers behind the '.'And you always are vulnerable for worm attacks :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 What are you talking about? Are you sure you clicked the right link?http://www.dune2k.com/?page=download&id=715Will this link allow me to use the ladder? And will the program run completely seperate from Emperor (emperor will just treat it as if it were sending results to the Westwood Online server)? I'm just worried that the program may cause errors to occur in the actual game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobalopper Posted July 25, 2003 Author Share Posted July 25, 2003 JB thats just a simplified version of the code so its a little easier to read. $points_winner/loser is the current number of points going into the game. The reason it rounds is that otherwise you get a lot of decimals which aren't used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobalopper Posted July 28, 2003 Author Share Posted July 28, 2003 The ladder will be launching officially in August. So it will be reset August 1st. Try to get a few more games in this month to make sure everything is working ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobalopper Posted July 29, 2003 Author Share Posted July 29, 2003 Also depending on how much money we get from ads there might be prizes each month. Nothing amazingly expensive but its better then nothing. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bryorama Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 I knoow I don't like adds. Unless it has to do with something I know, but thats 000.1 percent of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 Off Topic:The ads are small, dont flash or animated, simple text, only on main fed2k page and other subsidiaries. (not in forum)Do have relative similiar items that people from forum may be interested in.As long as they're not popups or animated its all good.
