Elbryan Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 (edited) has anyone tried using the nation strength formula to verify that numbers add up? I've gone over the calculations by hand and ever coded a calculator for it, but I get a number higher than the one on CN. anyone else get this? This is the formula I am talking about: http://www.cybernations.net/about_topics.asp#Nation_Strength Edited September 19, 2010 by Elbryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itsuki Koizumi Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 are you adding the ns fron land variables? pretty sure only purchased land adds to ns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironfist Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 I would say that you're probably not adding up right. Have you made sure you're adding brackets where neccessary, and also calculating the actual soldier count and not efficiency? What about purchased land compared to total land? And there could also be the issue of rounding. If you have 0.001 infra or something, you need to look at your nation statistics to see your proper figure. It's not uncommon to make a mistake so I'd just go over the numbers if I were you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elbryan Posted September 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 I've considered only land purchased vs total land, actual soldier count vs. the number in paren. and I even removed the chance that I just forgot to do math by coding a site that calculates it for me given the numbers. also, the problem isn't one of rounding because I get a result that be easily 1k-2k higher than what CN shows. Here be the page I coded, ye can see me formula in the source as it be all done in javascript. http://www.amazonnationalliance.com/tools/nscalc.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
