Universal Tickplan for r34
Decided i should create my own thread for this, considering its being constantly updated. Then i can dedicated the other thread to actual start help.
StartGuide is a spreadsheet which allows you to plan your first 50-100 ticks in Planetarion. It allows you to set your Race/Goverment/Research Path/Construction Path and Population settings, it then will show you the all the relevent data about your strategy, including res/con completion times, resources at each tick.. etc. Download Link: http://sites.google.com/site/katie00...edirects=0&d=1 Features: Works for any Race. Works for any Goverment. Works for the new Startup Bonus in 34. Allows you to alter tick 0 specifications to any you choose (i.e. start with 100 roids? 200 roids? etc.) Allows you to specify any research path. Allows you to specify any construction path. Gives you recommendations on population settings for each tick to gain maximum benefit. Allows you to override the population settings for each tick, to any amount you specify. Shows you resource amounts you'll have at each tick (factoring in mines/research and all relevent bonuses). Allows you to take your upgrade bonus at any time and see the results. Updates: 18th October: Added in population settings. 18th October: Added in Upgrade Bonus. Things to Do: Add a shipbuilder option, so you can figure out how many ships you can buy at a given tick. Add in potential roid capping for ticks24+, where you can input how many roids you expect to cap. Extend to 100ticks+ Bugs: Using construction upgrade bonus when its going to result in you being infra capped, can have some strange results.. Will be fixed soonish. Upgrade Bonus is completly bugged at the moment. ETA Till Fix - Unknown When setting your research path, if you change an earlier research which a later research relys on, it can bug out.. So check that your research paths are correct and you dont have for example 'Mining-2' without a Mining-1. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Light |
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
Very nice Light. Thanks for all the effort :D The bonus integration will be perfect.. saves me having to think
Before first 72 was auto pilot.. I would have possibly had to use my brain without this tool :D |
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
Update: Added in Upgrade Bonus.
Its abit buggy for constructions at the moment, as the infra-capped code is interfering with it. Will try and fix that by tomorrow if i get time, although i dont really know many people who use the construction upgrade bonus.. Its always research :p Edit: Upgrade bonus is bugged, ignore it at the moment. (Startup Bonus works fine) |
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
Update: Upgrade bonus is completly broken at the moment for anything other than tick 0, dont know if i'll have time to fix it before the round starts. So dont use the 'upgrade' bonus other than on tick 0, as the results will be wrong. Note: Startup Bonus still works fine :)

Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
Perfect tickstrategy !..........
.....or you can just have fun when you start developing your planet, and do whatever feels right when you login again...... (P.S.: It is well developed though. Nice stuff) |
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
Update: Doing a complete code rewrite to allow for upgrade bonus at any time.. Should be ready for friday or end of the weekend at latest. Also changing the data page to add more values to change and adding in a statistics page so give you an overview of your chosen tickplan showing all the major details in a nice easy to read format.

Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
I never cease to be amazed by you light. Your dedication and posted helps are a god send for those of us not as technical. I really appreciate all your work and have no doubt you will work all the bugs out, just get it back out there so we can download it. I have no doubt it is going to be good from what you've said about it.
Please keep coming up with all these gems. :D |

Im just rewriting it to be easier to understand and iron all the bugs out in one go.. So next version (which will be out before the end of this weekend) should be alot better with more options but easier to understand whats going on :p |
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
Hey Light, muchly appreciate your work on this. Any chance we see version delta anytime soon? :)
|

Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
When using the plan,
it doesnt use the correct research points every tick for instance: 1200 (-204) 996 (-192) 804 (-192) 612 (-192) 420 (-192) 228 (-192) 36 (-192) Why does it only use correct research points in first tick? I kept the population etc the same... so its very strange |

Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
Cath, Uni, 25-50-25...
i think the problem is in overriding your pop-setup when i download it... when changing it to 25-50-25, it only changes the first tick. when i overide second tick to 25-50-25, nothing happens... So then all finishing ticks for researches are wrong... |
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
Simular problem;
According to your plan with: Xan - Demo 25% mine 50% res 25% con startupbonus used for 7 constructions inc. 2 res.labs startupbonus used for hct1/hct2/core1 started hulls1 used last res.points from startupbonus on hulls. Now according to tickplan hulls should be done in tick2. According to in-game hulls are done in tick3. So somewhere something isnt correct. Extra info: I used the startup guide you posted... |
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
K, isolated the problem, was referencing the wrong cell for tick 1+ onwards. Give me an hour to change it all and reupload.
|
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
Take your time ...
Thanks for putting in the effort :) |

Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
Very impressive Light, I dont understand half of it - but it looks good in any case!
|
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
Most of it is useless information for the normal person... you just need to look at the completion ticks for your research/construction.
However, its got the information for each tick, as well as changing population for each tick in there.. for the more detailed person :p I'm working on a much simplier tickplan creator, which puts all the relevent information in a better way but its reached afew hiccups :p |
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
what would be great is if it could calculate the resources left after initiating the roids... for people not doing 100 roids of each.
|
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
nice work!

You can change the tick0 starting resources and roids to whatever you want. That spreadsheet actually has the init'ing code in it (as it was designed for last round), however.. I cant do any automatic calculations for what you start with on tick0 due to the quests interfering with it. |
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
Bah, you protected the worksheet! What's the PW to unprotect it? I want to see the formulas =)
|
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
Resources for each tick are not updating when I change starting roids.
|
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
It also needs the ability to select nothing for any/all of the startup con bonuses. This is because it may put you at a con cap earlier, and may be more efficient to use the remaining con bonus later.

However, the reality is... Is it worth not spending your con points at the start? and missing out on the finance/mine income? |

Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
Note: someone just complained to me that changing the starting roids to 500 doesnt change the income.. REMEMBER, the spreadsheet calcs HCT capped as well.. so if you're initing 301+ roids, you need the mining-3 done as well :) Also remember, the spreadsheet also calculates construction cost.

Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
i'd spread your sheet if u kno wut i mean
ps. i beat linkie to it |
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
Any chance of getting something like this in Google Docs or some other equivalent that runs in a browser?

Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
the fact that this is only available in excel is compelte and utter garbage :/

Try downloading Open Office 3.1 its free, and works with the spreadsheet just fine. |

Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
can we plz remove these mundane quests? Are they really helping anyone in their current form? It just annoys me I have to do the same shit each round :(
|
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34

An idea might be an option to allow experienced players to skip the quests (getting the rewards all at once). It could also be combined with the passport system, but i really see no reason why experienced players shouldn't be able to press a "i've done this before, now hand me my bonuses!" button. |

Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
I like ur idea HK. Should be fairly easy with the Passport system idd.
And mz, I see your point! :( |
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
just stumble upon this thread. seems like a useful tool however, waves-7 doesnt seem to exist in the drop down box? and is there a version that isnt protected?
|
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
You should be able to turn the protection off once you load it.
OpenOffice it's under Tools-->Protect Document I imagine Excel would be fairly similar. |
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
it has a password
|
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
Go get OpenOffice then - it's free.
|
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
Heh.
|
Re: Universal Tickplan for r34
what ETA means i need to research it at beginning what does it mean ?
