Anyone have #s they'd like me to crunch into my new program?

It gives me revenue, pci, networth... ect.

I can tell you if it's worth it to get more bus/res tech or not too. ;)

BTW, Deezy,.. I think Demo Casher comes out on top for casher. I've been trying all types of values for both and demo casher comes up on top. Primarily because of: stocking/destocking costs > 120% extra income.

Now that I'm thinking about it- I just had an idea.......

Value A vs Value B

I can make an infinite loop of Value B increasing by 1. And A stay the same. Once it finds best total revenue from value B, have it display on screen the stats.

The only annoying part are the variables in EXPLORE, tech prices, food costs and Land Grabs made against me. I can't control those variables.

Anyone know the average tech prices by turn 820? (Im assuming using 99 turns, and then storing 720 to allow tech prices to drop to maximize total revenue)

THe +/- of deviation of EXPLORE
Food Prices by turn 720

I'm interested in the rough optimal military/bus/res/indy tech percentages, purely based on the formula itself. i.e. the point until the benefits drastically slow down.

Sure. I haven't added military/indy yet...

but I can give you the opt bus/res...

I need the following

RES:
BUS:
LAND:
FOOD COST:
GOVT TYPE:
TURNS LEFT IN SET:

Was moreso thinking of a dummy environment with no variables - pricing, turns etc of what the benchmark % should at least be reached. But I guess your program is too specific and tailored differently.

e.g. If i get my tech up to X%, I can easily calculate if purchasing up to Y% at the current market price will be worth it with my remaining turns. But I never know if my X% is an optimal starting point to being with.

I just made it.

If it worth it or not relies heavily on those 6 variables. ie. 5k land vs 20k land very different results. The BUS/RES represents buildings not tech btw. I can set them to 0 if need be.

I can give you back the best tech % based on remaining turns.

For an example:

RES: 0
BUS: 0
LAND: 20k
FOOD COST: 34
GOVT TYPE: COMMIE
TURNS LEFT: 1000

As a roughie, say 25k acres as a commie with 700 turns to go.

OK- sec ill rework it.

25k land

RIght now i just manually type in a few variables. but im going to make it so it goes in an infinite loop until it finds the best value. but the more values you have the quicker the calculation. even for a computer the # of possiblitiies can get astronomical. but it's possible to *solve the BEST possible of everything.

This is why eventually BOTS will beat any player on this game at some point.

Actually my networth values are incorrrect- i had the #s based on a fixed value of 1000 turns. Sec..

Thats when we turn them off :-P

lol.

They're like chess software. They sucked at first... now they're almost impossible to beat. ie.. Rybka

The best thing about these programs- well, a veteran who plays week after week learns something new. I can run an entire set in 2 seconds. (I'm going to create breaking points so that I can buy/sell tech).


Eventually i want to get the best possible #s for an all xplore casher (0 market manipulation). From start to finish.
