Exp rate measurements

[Brute]

What's even worse about the 15-min average is there is a lot of variation in it, since it only measures whole minutes. So when it's at its peak you're actually dividing 15.5 minutes worth of exp by 15 minutes (it might even be 16 minutes of exp by 15 minutes, I'm not sure how well they've implemented it). I'm not actually sure how most teams label their script here, but on windbot the 15 minute avg is the standard way of doing it, and I'm pretty damn sure many of their top teams are using the (inaccurate) peak 15 min average when listing the max exp for their scripts.

However, being limited by stamina rather than time has some more implications for script design that I didn't bring up in the original post. For example, my Orc Fortress scripts has an option for running to Thais to sell the creature products before refilling. This is will totally trash your exp if you're measuring by real-time. But I have my computer running 24/7 and I expect my faccs to get deleted around level 100 so I only have one character per account. I don't care at all about real-time when it comes to faccs. Running there is not so bad from a stamina point of view, and it saves me the trouble of selling it manually in bulk. From my point of view it's definitely worth it, but a person that can only bot for 4 hours per day should never enable such an option. I guess my point is that most scripts don't have these options, for they're catering to the real time point of view.

Shadow, interesting concept you bring up in this post with the Thais depositor for halberds. But let me play the devils advocate on this. If you are botting knowing your char will be deleted around lvl 100, then why care about exp? (I know you're probably just using this for a crystal clear example) For botting FACC knights at orc fortress, wouldn't the primary concern be halberds per hour? It needs to also be taken into consideration what the script is being used for. I couldn't care less about stamina on FACC knights since you can just make a new one. I'd rather blow through stamina as fast as possible knowing my makers are staying in the spawn getting me them coins. Seems like the profit/hr would be significantly diminished by running to Thais each time capped out. I know this isn't a thread about profit/hr, but just thought I'd voice my opinion. Why wouldn't you just have knight deposit all halberd in "x" bp in the depot and once a month take all knights running orc fort and parcel all halberds to 1 char in Thais or whatever town you pick and have a script run depot to weapon store and sell them?

Sorry for running off topic with this post by the way.
