I eliminated all the "multipliers" in my code in favor of consistency and simplicity. I award 1 raw skill point per success. I adjust the RawToBase and BaseToRaw conversions.
In this way, I've adjusted my skill gains so they're fairly fast early on, then get progressively slower as a skill rises.
This is a copy of my exported CheckSkill function:
| Code: | use uo;
use os;
use util;
include "include/attributes";
program SyshookCheckSkill ( )
Syslog ( "Installing skillcheck..." );
return 1;
endprogram
exported function NewCheckSkill ( character, skillid, difficulty )
var attribute := GetAttributeIDBySkillID ( skillid );
var player_Skill := GetAttribute ( character, attribute );
var deniedTest := BaseToRaw ( player_Skill );
var skillCheck;
// Because I deny some skills based on class, if the skill is zero, the test
// auto-fails
if ( deniedTest == 0 )
SendSysMessage ( character, "You are untrained in this area." );
return 0;
endif
// Because I start all skills for newb characters at 0.1, to help move
// the skill along set the player's skill at 13 for the check.
if ( player_Skill < 13 )
skillCheck := 13;
else
skillCheck := player_Skill;
endif
// If the character skill is under the difficulty by more than 5, they fail.
if ( skillCheck <= ( difficulty - 5 ) )
return 0;
// If the character skill is 15 or more than the difficulty, they auto-suceed
elseif ( skillCheck >= ( difficulty + 15 ) )
// In character creation, we pre-calculated skill caps based on class
// and race choices. Those values are stored as props on the character.
var charMaxAttribute := ( "max" + attribute );
var maxSkill := GetObjProperty ( character, charMaxAttribute );
// Convert the skill to its raw form.
var rawMaxSkill := BaseToRaw ( maxSkill );
rawMaxSkill := ( rawMaxSkill + 1 );
// Find out what the character's current skill is and convert it to raw form.
var currentRawSkill := BaseToRaw ( player_Skill );
var possibleNewRawSkill := ( currentRawSkill + 1);
// If the character's skill isn't capped, award 1 raw skill point.
if ( rawMaxSkill > possibleNewRawSkill )
AwardRawSkill ( character, attribute, 1 );
StatIncrease ( character, skillid );
endif
return 1;
else
// The character's skill must be somewhere between 5 under and 15 over
// the difficulty of the skill test, so let's do a random check.
var dieRoll := ( skillCheck + 20 );
dieRoll := RandomInt ( dieRoll );
if ( dieRoll <= skillCheck )
// The check suceeded! Now go and award skill.
var charMaxAttribute := ( "max" + attribute );
var maxSkill := GetObjProperty ( character, charMaxAttribute );
var rawMaxSkill := BaseToRaw ( maxSkill );
rawMaxSkill := ( rawMaxSkill + 1 );
var currentRawSkill := BaseToRaw ( player_Skill );
var possibleNewRawSkill := ( currentRawSkill + 1);
if ( rawMaxSkill > possibleNewRawSkill )
AwardRawSkill ( character, attribute, 1 );
StatIncrease ( character, skillid );
endif
return 1;
else
// The skill check failed, so don't award anyone anything and return
// the failure.
return 0;
endif
endif

Then, if you look at the BaseToRaw and RawToBase conversions:
| Code: | function BaseToRaw ( base )
if ( base <= 200 )
return CInt ( base * 20 );
elseif ( base > 200 and base <= 300 )
return 4000 + ( CInt ( base - 200 ) * 80 );
elseif ( base > 300 and base <= 400 )
return 8000 + ( CInt ( base - 300 ) * 80 );
elseif ( base > 400 and base <= 500 )
return 16000 + ( CInt ( base - 400 ) * 320 );
elseif ( base > 500 and base <= 600 )
return 32000 + ( CInt ( base - 500 ) * 320 );
elseif ( base > 600 and base <= 700 )
return 64000 + ( CInt ( base - 600 ) * 1280 );
elseif ( base > 700 and base <= 800 )
return 128000 + ( CInt ( base - 700 ) * 1280 );
elseif ( base > 800 and base <= 900 )

return 1024000 + ( CInt ( base - 1000 ) * 10240 );

return 2048000 + ( CInt ( base - 1100 ) * 10240 );

return 3072000 + ( CInt ( base - 1200 ) * 10240 );
elseif ( base > 1300 and base <= 1400 )
return 4096000 + ( CInt ( base - 1300 ) * 10240 );

return 5120000 + ( CInt ( base - 1400 ) * 10240 );

elseif ( base > 1900 and base <= 2000 )
return 10240000 + ( CInt ( base - 1900 ) * 10240 );
endif
endfunction
function RawToBase ( rawpoints )
if ( rawpoints <= 2000 )
return CInt ( CInt ( rawpoints / 20 ));
elseif ( rawpoints > 2000 and rawpoints <= 4000 )
return CInt ( CInt ( ( rawpoints - 2000 ) / 20 ) + 100 );

You can see that until a character reaches a skill of 30, it requires 20 successful skill checks to equal a 0.1 skill gain. As their skills increase, the number of successes required to gain 0.1 in a skill increases. |
