Calculator.

Bunny Fastid · **Posted:** January 4th, 2006, 4:26 pm

Hello there. Although I have only just joined your forums, I use your website regularly and am rather surprised by the lack of one calculator on there. I am trained somewhat in coding, but not enough to make calculators for RS :0p Or..have the inkling to try hehe. However, I was playing RS and wanted to level my nearest skill, then realised that without going through each one bit by bit, I had no idea which one would be fastest to level XP wise. I opened RSBandB...thinking you'd have a calculator to tell me and you didn't. (I know this is very lazy, but it also saves a lot of time) I'd have thought it would have been one of the first made? I do realise that not everyone will have levels in the hiscores that are able to be checked, but for those of us that do I think this would be a good idea. I do however, also realise that someone will have to spend time making one but, you ask for our feedback...and so now you have it :0)

I would be very glad to see a calculator like this up and running. It could maybe have skills running for A to Z, current XP, XP needed for next level....and how much XP needs to be gained. It would help very much.

Thanks for your time. I would also be very interested in hearing your reply.

Sian.

PS - I did try posting this on the feedback form but it keeps coming up with errors, so sorry if this is misplaced.

They are there. :wink:

Just look across the top bar, put oyur mouse over "Calculators" and it will bring down a list.

Just a note before you ask, the guides are still being made, thats what the submission forum is for.

I think you're mis-understanding me. I know the calculators are there for each skill....but I mean one to check all of them at once?

For example...
Skill | Current lvl | XP Now | XP Off next level.
Agility
Herblore
Mage

Well you could just view the skills page in the actual game

And by the time I've looked at the one under the last and worked out the difference I've forgotten the first I looked at. It would just be nice to see all the facts in front of you on one table. *So you can tally up how much you're off each and which would be faster to get*

Agility - 20k off level
Herbie - 45k off level
Thieving - 90k off level..

Etc etc etc so on and so forth

This is something that has already been in planning. We know exactly what you mean and how to implement it. I'm not going to say anything else but this feature is something that we want to do and have it planned.

I made a calculator for it just now, didn't take me thhaat long... but here it is. The part that actually took me the longest was making the images :oops:

and a few problems with sorting the list

There will also be something like this on the highscores when they come out

The new calculator (skill comparisons) is an excellent addition! Bravo Shane and company. Well done!
