[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

Topic: Need dying calculations - Can anyone help?

	I've added a DyeBot to the TinkerBot script. I'd like to tell the user their chance of success before the trade is completed, but i don't know how the diffuculty is calculated. Does anyone have any info on this? I would just hook the 'Crafting chance of success' dialog box, but there are 2 problems with that. 1, AC's built-in hotkey used to toggle the crafting chance option doesn't work. It shows the option turning off and on, but doesn't actually toggle use of the window. And 2, ACTool's variable _craftchancesuccess doesn't seem to work. I'd prefer to just calculate the math in the script anyway, as that all the tinkerbot calculations are done that way... -----signature-----

	http://www.thejackcat.com/AC/Shopping/Crafts/Dyes.htm <<Dyeing has a Cooking Skill Check of 230.>> http://www.code-poets.org/tinkering.html I'm relatively sure that it uses the same check function as tinkering...do a few tests to see if it's the same as if you were doing a 230 diff tink, but I think it's the same. -----signature----- Virindi --- **Virindi Plugins FAQ** http://www.virindi.net/wiki/index.php/Virindi_Plugins_FAQ http://www.virindi.net - Virindi Tank, Follower, Integrator, Reporter, VCS5, XPHelper, Item Tool, HUDs, etc...

	Hmmm.. interesting. I may have to drop a couple key skills, to pick up the trade skills, on my tinker mule (meleeD, missileD (which I plan on dropping as soon as I can find a replacement for the cov stuff he's wearing)). -----signature----- Proud member of The Knights of Fortune Mr Adventure - Lil' Pew - Da Noob - Qar Yaroz - Yanno http://www.fortunesway.com

	I pinned it down: Chance of success = ( 1 - ( 1 / ( 1 + EXP( 0.03 * ( CookingSkill - 230 ) ) ) ) ) * 100 -----signature-----
