Help With Dynamic XP Mod

[GxRay]

Hello everyone. I have been extremely dissatisfied with the way the experience system in fallout works, so I wrote this pseudo-code to fix that. It dynamically calculates experience based on several variables, and is very well balanced (see the total exp for each example in the spoiler below).

 

However, I am new to modding and don't how to convert this into an actual GECK script.

Could someone please assist me?

 

Edit:

The majority of this has now been written, but I cannot find a function to return the DPS of an enemy such as a Deathclaw. Help much appreciated!

 

 

BaseExp = EnemyLevel*2

DTBonus = EnemyDamageThreshold

HPBonus = EnemyHealth/50

ThreatRatioBonus = 30 - ThreatRatio*10

ExpMult = 1 + (EnemyLevel/15) - (PlayerLevel*.05)

ThreatRatio Function

{

//Level 1, no armor, 100 HP, 20 DPS vs. Legendary Deathclaw

// My Health = ( Current Health ) / ( 1.0 - ( Armor Rating / 100.0 ) )

My Combat Strength = My Health (100) * My DPS (20) x2 for for Human Intelligence = 400

Enemy Combat Strength = Enemy Health (1176) * Enemy DPS ( 250) = 294,000

//Threat ratio = ( My Combat Strength ) / ( Enemy Combat Strength )

Threat Ratio = (400)/(294000), ~0

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

//Level 30, 30 DT, 350 HP, 400 DPS vs. Legendary Deathclaw

// My Health = ( Current Health ) / ( 1.0 - ( Armor Rating / 100.0 ) )

My Combat Strength = My Health (500) * My DPS (400) x2 for Human Intelligence = 400,000

Enemy Combat Strength = Enemy Health (1176) * Enemy DPS (250) = 294,000

//Threat ratio = ( My Combat Strength ) / ( Enemy Combat Strength )

Threat Ratio = (400000)/(294000) = 1.36

}

Level 1 from example killing Legendary Deathclaw:

BaseExp = EnemyLevel*2 ~60~

DTBonus = EnemyDamageThreshold ~15~

HPBonus = EnemyHealth/50 ~20~

ThreatRatioBonus = 30 - ThreatRatio*10 ~30~

ExpMult = 1 + (EnemyLevel/15) - (PlayerLevel*.05) ~2.95~

TotalExp = (BaseExp + DTBonus + HPBonus + ThreatRatioBonus)*ExpMult

TotalExp = (60+15+20+30)*2.95

TotalExp = (125)*2.95

TotalExp = 368.75

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

Level 30 from example killing Legendary Deathclaw:

BaseExp = EnemyLevel*2 ~60~

DTBonus = EnemyDamageThreshold ~15~

HPBonus = EnemyHealth/50 ~20~

ThreatRatioBonus = 30 - ThreatRatio*10 ~16.4~

ExpMult = 1 + (EnemyLevel/15) - (PlayerLevel*.02) ~2.4~

TotalExp = (BaseExp + DTBonus + HPBonus + ThreatRatioBonus)*ExpMult

TotalExp = (60+15+20+16.4)*1.5

TotalExp = (111)*1.5

TotalExp = 166.5

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

Level 1 from example killing Goodsprings Gecko:

BaseExp = EnemyLevel*2 ~6~

DTBonus = EnemyDamageThreshold ~0~

HPBonus = EnemyHealth/50 ~.6~

ThreatRatioBonus = 30 - ThreatRatio*10 ~17~

ExpMult = 1 + (EnemyLevel/15) - (PlayerLevel*.05) ~1.15~

TotalExp = (BaseExp + DTBonus + HPBonus + ThreatRatioBonus)*ExpMult

TotalExp = (6+0+.6+17)*2.95

TotalExp = (23.6)*1.15

TotalExp = 27.14

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

Level 30 from example killing Goodsprings Gecko:

BaseExp = EnemyLevel*2 ~6~

DTBonus = EnemyDamageThreshold ~0~

HPBonus = EnemyHealth/50 ~.6~

ThreatRatioBonus = 30 - ThreatRatio*10 ~NEGATIVE~

ExpMult = 1 + (EnemyLevel/15) - (PlayerLevel*.05) ~NEGATIVE, LOWEST IS .1~

TotalExp = (BaseExp + DTBonus + HPBonus + ThreatRatioBonus)*ExpMult

TotalExp = (6+0+.6)*.1

TotalExp = (6.6)*.1

TotalExp = .66

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

Level 1 from example killing Level 15 Giant Radscorp:

BaseExp = EnemyLevel*2 ~30~

DTBonus = EnemyDamageThreshold ~18~

HPBonus = EnemyHealth/50 ~3~

ThreatRatioBonus = 30 - ThreatRatio*10 ~29.2~

ExpMult = 1 + (EnemyLevel/15) - (PlayerLevel*.05) ~1.95~

TotalExp = (BaseExp + DTBonus + HPBonus + ThreatRatioBonus)*ExpMult

TotalExp = (30+18+3+29.2)*1.95

TotalExp = (80.2)*1.95

TotalExp = 156.39

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

Level 30 from example killing Level 15 Giant Radscorp:

BaseExp = EnemyLevel*2 ~30~

DTBonus = EnemyDamageThreshold ~18~

HPBonus = EnemyHealth/50 ~3~

ThreatRatioBonus = 30 - ThreatRatio*10 ~NEGATIVE~

ExpMult = 1 + (EnemyLevel/15) - (PlayerLevel*.05) ~.5~

TotalExp = (BaseExp + DTBonus + HPBonus + ThreatRatioBonus)*ExpMult

TotalExp = (30+18+3)*.5

TotalExp = (51)*.5

TotalExp = 25.5

Thank you!

Update:

Swenson and I have been working on this script for quite some time now, with little progress.

A semi-functional script written by Swenson can be found here:

The original Dynamic XP Mod script can be found here:

http://pastebin.com/CYfWr9M2

 

And my cleaned version of the Dynamic XP Mod script can be found here:

(I still have no idea what some of his variables stand for, so I didn't edit those)

 

I would appreciate anyone's help, and would love to get Swensons' script up and running!

 

Thank you all!
