One more small map with Movable Power Zones and re-distribution of power of destroyed creeper emitters. #BravoHarrymcb #BravoRegallion #BravoVirgil #CreateDreamCreeperWorld #GoodLu
it was funny using a nullifier not to kill an emiter, but to keep it from eating my buildings...
these brown dudes are super bold haha
edit: i like the red field to show us when they detect our units...though i wouldnt mind a more, uh, discrete, red line :P
edit2: oh, one thing i couldnt verify. when i kill an emiter, and its power is shared amongst others, does it take into account the interval or just the amt?
as in, 500/2 seconds would give the same as 500/0,5?

That it does
The formula is:
sum of (destroyed emitter str/destroyed emitter interval) for every destroyed emitter = leftover power.
Leftover power/alive emitters = distributed power.
Base emitter power + distributed power* base emitter interval*distributionpercent = new emitter power.
For example, if you have
- 500/10 emitter
- 1000/50 emitter
- 100/1 emitter
- 200/5 emitter
And the distribution percent is 90%
and then destroy the 500/10 and the 100/1 emitters
leftover power = 500/10+100/1 = 150
distributed power = 150/2 = 75
For 1000/50 emitter - 1000+75*50*0,9 = 4375 (this would actually cap off at 2000).
For 200/5 emitter - 200+75*5*0,9 = 537,5
Bottom line is that it was one heck of a lot of fun.
Thanks for the map.

ah, i see...also the greater the interval, the better it is affected...tnx

That's not exactly true, since the creeper/frame is equivalent but i can see the argument that going from 10/1 to 11/1 is not as notable as going from 10/1000 to 1010/1000 even if it's technically the same increase.

as i understood, if the other 2 emites on the example were 1000/50 and 1000/10
1. 1000+ 75*50*0,9 = 4375 (2000)
2. 1000 + 75*10*0,9 = (1675)
so ending up with a 2000/50 emiter and a 1675/10 emiter
edit. oh yeah...i just noticed i was misled by the left number...now i get it lol
edit2. so this also means the right number can be used to control the cap power of each emiter separately
