Title: Power forumla? Post by: jimmi33 on February 20, 2009, 03:51:39 PM Anyone got it?
Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: siremi on February 20, 2009, 04:01:24 PM You might want to check this topic out:
http://www.hacker-project.com/forum/index.php?topic=296.0 In order to calc the power of others, you may find it hard since you will be missing some stuff like all the highest software on their gateways, and all their hardware etc. :) Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: jimmi33 on February 20, 2009, 04:05:07 PM Well it was more to calculate my own power if i buy a file from the software dealer or download it.
So how much my power increase each version on each file is what i am looking for. Also if hardware increase your power with how much per upgrade of each type. Also does a duplication of the same file (highest version) gives more power? Title: Re: Power forumla?

Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: jimmi33 on February 20, 2009, 06:48:13 PM Nope, it says that in his link, only one of the higest is counted... and if you got 2 of the highest as i asked?

Nope, it says that in his link, only one of the higest is counted... I thought I just said that... :21: Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: jager on February 20, 2009, 07:08:14 PM You did, I actually copied your statement and stressed/underlined/bolded the answer that jimmi33 failed to see :)
Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: jimmi33 on February 20, 2009, 07:08:23 PM ahh sorry <.< i didn't notice the only (4 am here)
Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: Sin15698 on February 20, 2009, 07:09:15 PM It's okay, but you should get to sleep :confused2:
Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: jimmi33 on February 20, 2009, 07:13:34 PM Im trying to figure out the power.
What is wierd is sometimes my power raises for no reason. Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: Sin15698 on February 20, 2009, 07:17:28 PM Did you get HPD? That could cause it, or your power was just late to update?
Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: jimmi33 on February 20, 2009, 07:18:35 PM Did you get HPD? That could cause it, or your power was just late to update? I have noticed that the power increase instantly when it is your own power. And nope didn't collect nor did i complete a mission. Title: Re: Power forumla?

I have noticed that the power increase instantly when it is your own power. And nope didn't collect nor did i complete a mission. maybe some gateway upgrades... Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: Sin15698 on February 21, 2009, 01:20:06 PM Maybe it's something simpler like deslyxia?
Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: virus man on March 03, 2009, 07:56:27 AM gateway upgrades actually lowers your power rank score from what I have seen. Unless that has been changed especially since it was discussed in length previously when people were trying to figure out the power ranking.
Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: virus man on March 03, 2009, 07:59:05 AM Also for some reason as I showed in R1 if you move the software from 1 server to another and delete it on the original server your score will drop as well.
I have also noticed that my score is WAY lower than it should be most likely caused by the fact that I don't have any software on my first server other than a sniffer daemon trap ;) Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: Donn on March 03, 2009, 08:15:03 AM Gateway upgrades increase your power. Certain of it :-)
Not 100% sure about moving software but I remember you discussing it in R1 already.. You can always send a forum message to Sir Emi and he will answer it asap. Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: jimmi33 on March 03, 2009, 09:16:56 AM Gateway upgrades doesn't increase your power, nor does it lower it.
It addes the same amount of power as it costs to upgrade. Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: gs 059 on March 03, 2009, 09:48:22 AM Gateway upgrades doesn't increase your power, nor does it lower it. unless you have gold, than since you get 20% discount on hardware, it does give you a 20% increase of power over hpd.It addes the same amount of power as it costs to upgrade. Title: Re: Power forumla?

This explains everything ^^ Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: virus man on March 03, 2009, 10:58:34 AM Checked and verified. So that is an exploitable bug. Perhaps Titam should add in a IF statement to handle the Gold calculation in order to maintain a level playing field with regards to the power rank.
Of course being that most of the Top10 are Gold I can imagine they will most likely NOT want this to happen. I personally don't care as being gold should NOT give an artificial boost on the Power Rank IMO. Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: jimmi33 on March 03, 2009, 04:22:02 PM I begin to understand why i am falling out of the top 10 :P
I have never been gold and therefor didn't knew about the 20% discount. Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: jager on March 03, 2009, 04:36:52 PM I begin to understand why i am falling out of the top 10 :P I have never been gold and therefor didn't knew about the 20% discount. Yeah, any reason is useful when you don't know how to play :) I'm not gold either, but I don't have any problems with that ... Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: jimmi33 on March 03, 2009, 04:39:18 PM Compared to donn :P
Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: virus man on March 03, 2009, 05:01:44 PM I begin to understand why i am falling out of the top 10 :P I have never been gold and therefor didn't knew about the 20% discount. Well that is because you are pro-revelations according to the grape-vine ;) Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: jimmi33 on March 03, 2009, 05:06:08 PM naah i would have started revelation when there only was 1 or 2 who could disinfect it but i had no support at that time so now im just gonna follow the games flow ^^

Well that is because you are pro-revelations according to the grape-vine ;) So the rumors were true? :21: Naughty Jimmi33! :laugh: Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: jimmi33 on March 03, 2009, 05:38:38 PM I did indeed intend to install revelation. But at that time there wasen't 10 players who wanted because they didn't want to start all over again.
Now i want some updates before doing anything. Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: jimmi33 on March 03, 2009, 06:08:40 PM Anyways i have figured out the most of how the power is calculated so if anyone wanna know a bit more about it then i might know it.
Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: Moen Co. on March 31, 2009, 02:23:09 AM http://www.hacker-project.com/forum/index.php?topic=698.0
Dated, but maybe you'll find something useful there. Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: jimmi33 on March 31, 2009, 10:21:27 AM Thank you but i already figured out all the data i need to estimate everyones software and farm from power ^^
Probably the best funniest thing in the game since revelation was made. Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: virus man on March 31, 2009, 05:17:41 PM Thank you but i already figured out all the data i need to estimate everyones software and farm from power ^^ Probably the best funniest thing in the game since revelation was made. Well then why not share the info? Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: jimmi33 on April 01, 2009, 07:27:32 AM This is a game ^^ do as i did and have a bit of fun for the amount of time it takes to get it.
Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: Triadian on April 01, 2009, 10:24:08 AM well personally i think its impossible to work out who has what
lets say someone has 1000 power that could be either cash - hardware or a software version no way on earth of knowing whether its one or the other. Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: jimmi33 on April 01, 2009, 01:42:02 PM You are right to some extent ^^ if you know when the person started and a bit of other small information then you can get rather close to the real deal ^^ thats why i used the word estimate.
Title: Re: Power forumla? Post by: Triadian on April 02, 2009, 10:08:26 AM the only information you would need is all the IP's of his servers right ???? otherwise Your SOOL.
