Bastnaesite Asteroid

About all I can get out of Jam right now:

<jam> $loot['cerium']=floor(.4*$modifier);
<jam> $loot['carbon']=floor(2*$modifier);
<jam> $loot['yttrium']=floor(.5*$modifier);

<jam> $size=($age/86400)+($beamclass);
<jam> $modifier=skillmod($skill,$size/$modifier);
<jam> skillmod function is: $qty+($qty*($skill/($skill+100)));

That might actually be quite helpful. I will have a look at it tomorrow. Wont have much time to play today.

My best guess is that means base is 20 carbon, 4 cerium and 5 yttrium, assuming qty=10 in the above.
Edit: base seems to low, when I look at Stagc record:

cause that would mean it was 1561 days old, and I don't think bast had been that long in the game at that point



I added that to same formula we use for calculating yeild for columbites etc and put it all in a spreadsheet:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... sp=sharing
I think you should be able to but your own skill, spawn date of the roids and it should automatically update the yeilds. But I havent used much google sheets, so let me know if it doesn't work or if there is strange results, could be some typos

Dont have the numbers for neuros yet, will add later.


It does confirm that the composition numbers we had was quite accurate:
68.97% carbon
17.24% yttrium
13.79% cerium
is what I get from .4 .5 and 2

Adding the floor command is important. It rounds down the the whole number. This will not have much affect for old rocks, but one day old yields will be much more affected.

It shows 1 decimal for that reason, I can change it to a rounded number instead if that makes more sense.
How I read the code it does the floor last, so only rounding the result for each material should be same as in game.
Since we use days its not that accurate anyway though, they all increase more than 1 per day as well. Nio for example goes from 4 to 8.1 in 1 day with MB 1 and skill 1. I could probably add calculation for how much each grow per day in yield and mention that as an inaccuracy.

RAM_> What is the loot yield of Neuro? Once we have this, we can make sue all of our calculations are right.
<jam> 1

Neuro seems to have 20 as base, I will probably do more tests later to confirm it.
And base for bast is 10 ytt, 8 cerium and 40 carbon.
Spreadsheet is updated with these numbers: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... edit#gid=0

That means Stagc record bast should be just over 2 years old when it was mined, which is possible.

Qty in Jams code must then be 20, if I have understood things correctly.

How to spot a baby bast from a distance. It's like a little golden light, blinking off and on. The image shows it in mid blink.



Lets just hope it is still there after the server has moved >< This wasnt the best time to find one :p

Ang, Chron, Colom, Kam and Sid mix by the way

Jam says nothing will be lost. It was my overreaction. Sorry.

Did some test mining today in a neuro field and 2 cyanite fields, seems our numbers are correct as I get expected yields. That should also mean the bast numbers are correct in the spreadsheet linked in my signature.
