If the money is sent via courier, he has to buy a galactic hyperdrive at a cost of 5000₢ per galactic jump. The fees he is charging you for his services will hardly be below that. (But of course he may also have other deliveries, so you may pay only part of his costs...)pmw57 wrote:If you are in galaxy 3 and the courier was sent from galaxy 5, there can be a base charge of 5%, with an additional 3% per galaxy.
Always happy to lose money!pmw57 wrote:You sir will shortly receive a handling charge. The handling fee will be be based on the number galaxies the courier need to travel to get to your galaxy.
If you are in galaxy 3 and the courier was sent from galaxy 5, there can be a base charge of 5%, with an additional 3% per galaxy.
8000
- 400 (5%)
- 240 * 6 (3%)
= 6160Cr
How does that work for you?
Oh of course! It's just numbersLestradae wrote:Is this doable for you?pmw57 wrote:If you are in galaxy 3 and the courier was sent from galaxy 5, there can be a base charge of 5%, with an additional 3% per galaxy.
Here's the part that does the work. The variables are intended to make the code as readable as possible.Lestradae wrote:I would actually like that - always presumed it's doable and you, pmw57, are ready to implement it.
Code: Select all
this.playerStationIncome = function (type, galaxy) {
var stationIncome = {
'A': 4000, 'B': 8000, 'C': 12000, 'D': 21000, 'E': 20000, 'F': 36000,
'G': 40000, 'H': 75000, 'I': 100000, 'J': 130000, 'K': 250000, 'L': 500000
},
projectedIncome = stationIncome[type],
baseIncome = projectedIncome * 0.80,
variableIncome = projectedIncome * 0.40 * Math.random(),
stationIncome = baseIncome + variableIncome;
// adjust for courier travel from station galaxy to your galaxy
if (galaxyNumber !== galaxy) {
stationIncome *= 0.95;
}
while (galaxyNumber !== galaxy) {
stationIncome *= 0.97;
galaxy = (galaxy + 1) % 8;
}
return stationIncome;
};

Because I simply don't get that from looking through the script!
Yep, already updated, complete with no javascript errors! Go check it out.Kaks wrote:playerStationDayDayPaid ?Code: Select all

Apart from that, keep up the good work!

You're very welcome. I'm glad that this testing of the waters has proven to be so fruitful. I may check the depth next time round a bit more carefully, but otherwise this has gone swimmingly.Lestradae wrote:Hm, concerning the way the .js does make problems with the setting of the info in the mission screen, perhaps I will use a rest of .plist for that.
<snip code>
I think this is not a big problem, it will not drive down the speed so bad that it is noticable, and it writes into the missions screen exactly what I want it to, with no limitations.
When I receive my weekly courier package, especially from Galaxy 8 (500,000 clams!) I will be capable of buying up vast numbers of stations.
Additionally, I'm not happy with the stations taking over the mission area, because I sometimes have taxi missions and ups missions going at the same time.
What is the difficulty with placing the player stations in with the equipment. They are after all, big ticket items that you buy and sell anyway.

If you say so. All .plist scripts are run in their entirety every 10 seconds or so, and that series of tests seems very slow to me. Especially if you multiply it for all the buyable stations you have.Lestradae wrote:I think this is not a big problem, it will not drive down the speed so bad that it is noticable, and it writes into the missions screen exactly what I want it to, with no limitations.
If the player switches ships, the equipment either is gone or there has to be special code being added to transfer it. Furthermore, I would guess that the stations could be damaged when the ship is hit with shields downpmw57 wrote:What is the difficulty with placing the player stations in with the equipment.

Would it not work if L would change the handling from buying the stations to create a mission string at that point and then never again change it until the station is sold again? Or would that also cause multiple calculations?Kaks wrote:If you say so. All .plist scripts are run in their entirety every 10 seconds or so, and that series of tests seems very slow to me.

Still, it's your OXP. As long as you're happy with the slow down, then no problem!
