Few questions for some of the vets here

[Nuclear Raunch]

1: How does the Stock market work? I know how it functions, I'm just wondering what makes the prices rise and fall. Is it based upon Admin's decisions, number of shares bought, number of shares sold, or something else altogether?

2: What is land gained from Pincer and Sniper attacks?


3: Troop production ratios. It used to be 1.2 mice per barracks, .6 squirrels per barracks, .3 hares, and .2 otters. Is that still the same?

4: Can anyone tell me the networth value of land, money, food, mages, mice, squirrels, hares, and otters?

Thanks.

1. The stock market is chaotic.

For the rest, I need to check the code to give you a precise answer, in other words, tomorrow.

1. Prices rise and fall based on a random number generator, to the best of my knowledge - I haven't looked at the exact code for it, but I do know it is relatively uninfluenced by other events. The admins CAN up it or lower it, but we never do.

3. yes
4. Land=500
Used Land=100
Mice=2

Actually, it is NOT a random number generator, it is a chaos function, the Bender bouncer. See the wiki link.

Answering question 3. Here are the base market costs:

code: Select all

$config['troop'][0]             =       400;
$config['troop'][1]             =       800;
$config['troop'][2]             =       1600;
$config['troop'][3]             =       2400;

Formula for troop production:

code: Select all

                // build extra units
                $troop = array();
                foreach($config[troop] as $num => $mktcost) {
                        $troop[$num] = floor(($users[industry] * ($users[ind][$num] / 100)) * (600 / $mktcost) * $urace[ind] * $config[indc]);
                        if ($action == 'industry')
                                $troop[$num] *= 1.25;

                        $users[troop][$num] += $troop[$num];
                }

In other words,
Mice: 1.50
Squirrels: 0.75
Hares: 0.37
Otters: 0.25
