ok, the system right now does not take into effect vulnerabilities, because that has not been determined as to how much it affects the weighted average (-100 was suggested, it could be -50, I dont know).

I've run 4 different experiments on this now and they all seem to indicate that vulnerability in a wild DNA creature is a -99. (Actually 3 of them showed it could be either -99 or -100. 1 of them was a border case and showed that -100 will very occasionally give you the wrong results)

By the way can we get the ability to specify special vs effective resist. It seems to have a fairly large effect on the resist calculation.

amazing work. this tool really really rocks

Yup need to add in the new discovries on "special potection" vs "effeciveness" on resists in dna though eh?

Can we actually confrm that puttingthe same DNA into Aggression and Psychology will give you both specials? Or is Aggression the only factor if armor sticks?

The tool factors with or without estimation of experimentation?

dont bump this any more. I still havent fixed it using the L33T BEFF. Yes, tohit is still broken and I need to code in the resists correctly. and yes this system assumes you will be able to experiment all to maximum, even though we know this to be impossible with most clones since we get nowhere near enough experiment points to do it.

Hi,

I have been doing quite a lot of exploring with resists.

It is fundamental to be able to distinguish between special and normal resist. You can fake it by hand. If any of the dna samples has a special resist, then just enter any normal resist as zero. Also specials do not change as fortitude is experimented on. Finally vulnerabilities in the wild do seem to be about -99, vulnerabilities in clones are whatever the formula gives (e.g. Sp50, V , Norm 30, Norm 30, Norm 30) = (sp 50, Vul, 0 ,0,0) = 50 * 40% + -99 * 25% = -5 Vulnerability.

There does appear to be some randomness in it though, but this is giving me a very good working approximation.
