expand a building

[sinner]

Does someone know how to calculate the needed time to expand a building if I have the $factor, $world_speed, $build_level and $build (the dbname of a build, just to find out the buildings expand time);

Let's just supose I have a function as is follows:

PHP Code:

function get_build_time($build,$level,$world_speed) {
    $time = array('main' => 30, 'barracks' => 20, 'stable' => 40 etc); //this is the default time for a building
    $factor = 0.3;
    ..................
    formula how to calculate the needed time for a building to be expanded in dslan ? without using the function from include.inc.php
    ..................
    return $seconds;
} 


PHP Code:

return ceil($time[$build]*(percentage($level,maxstage($build))*$level/6)); //i used this, as a formula to get similar values like dslan ones 


Does anyone know the formula ? I don't need the function word by word, i can make it on my own, just the formula so I can develop it.

Why you write an own function you can use the Function get_time($main_stage,$dbname,$stage) (part of the builds class, saved in $cl_builds)

[Molt]

PHP Code:

return round(($building_time * pow($stage_factor, $building_stage)) / pow($main_factor, $main_stage));

steffengy, it's not about dslan what i'm working at, so I can't use the functions from there

then it must be in the section "Sonstige Fragen" when its not about TWLan / DSLan
