Subject: Re: Gold Upgrades and Research
Hello Mira,
thank you. It would be interesting to get a formula for calculating the values. But it is not needed to get the behaviour of the original M.A.X. The simple reason is, that there is no next step after 673 in M.A.X. (when the price would be above 800 a further upgrade is not possible in the original).
In MAXReloaded we have all possible upgrade-price-rows as values in the source code. We directly retrieved them from the original (by playing with a large large large research/upgrade base).
Anyway it would be interesting to get a good formula (we have already a formula, but to me it looks a little strange) for values that were not in the original M.A.X. but which someone introduces when designing new kinds of units or doing some balancing stuff. If you want, I can provide you with some further rows as examples of the same underlying formula.
