Description

This setting sets the 'Base' value for the player which is used in calculating how much cxp is required to reach the next level. Adding to this will increase the amount of cxp required per level by a certain amount.

Examples

Base value 95, cxp to level 50 with default easy factor will be: 366,117
Base value 115, cxp to level 50 with default easy factor will be: 425,142

Difficulty: Extreme
Value: 2.17

Difficulty: Realistic
Value: 2.22

Description

This setting sets the factor value which is used to calculate how much cxp is required to reach the next level. Adding to this will increase the amount of cxp required per level by a large amount. Be careful with this setting, as putting it too high will result in massive cxp requirements. Changing the base value is recommended over changing this setting.

Examples

Factor val of 2.1, cxp to level 50 with default easy base value will be: 366,117
Factor val of 2.25, cxp to level 50 with default easy base value will be: 631,547

Value: 2.1

Difficulty: Moderate
Value: 2.0

Difficulty: Hard
Value: 1.95

Difficulty: Extreme
Value: 1.92

Difficulty: Realistic
Value: 1.87

Description

This setting sets the factor value which is used to calculate how much cxp is obtained from destroying an enemy ship in one-on-one combat. Adding to this will increase the amount of cxp obtained by a large amount. Be careful with this setting, as putting it too high will result in massive cxp awards which will break the game without changes to the player settings relating to leveling. This setting works with the cxp amount in the faction_npcs table and other tables where enemies are assigned cxp. These values are analogous to 'player base value'.

Examples

Factor val of 2.1, cxp rewarded for killing a level 18 enemy with a base cxp value of 25 will be: 10,814
Factor val of 2.25, cxp rewarded for killing a level 18 enemy with a base cxp value of 45 will be: 30,031
Factor val of 1.85, cxp rewarded for killing a level 30 enemy with a base cxp value of 65 will be: 35,122
Factor val of 3.1, cxp rewarded for killing a level 22 enemy with a base cxp value of 100 will be: 1,450,475 (negative case for a high factor value)
