RB25 SG Signups

[Gusto]

Good work Iustus. Hopefully there will be no mysterious GP disappearance as long as all the required GP to trigger a GA are on the same tile.

What does the code say about a tie? Who gets picked, then?

Perhaps that's a crash bug!

As for signups I see that the three slots that got in gusto posted a mere 90 even minutes after the initial post..

It's like winning the lottery ala rb.


Cheers!

Yep. Except that people who live in the same country as the game sponsor (or don't sleep) get extra tickets...

Short answer: oldest unit.

------------

Long answer:


The actual code just loops through the list of units starting from your first unit, going to the last unit, for each great person you need.

I believe the list is in the order the units are created, so the oldest great person would be used, because ties go to the first match found.

The best thing to do is to just put the ones you want to use on the same tile, but for those that care, plot distance is calculated as follows, (it is not true cartisian distance):

Code:

4 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 4 | 4
-------------------------
4 | 3 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 3 | 4
-------------------------
3 | 2 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 2 | 3
-------------------------
3 | 2 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3
-------------------------
3 | 2 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 2 | 3
-------------------------
4 | 3 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 3 | 4
-------------------------
4 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 4 | 4
