What is faster ? - darksun84 - 05-22-2013 02:49 AM
Premise :
Values are "fixed", they range from 0 to 1000 with increments of 100.
What will be the faster way for sphere to assign a bonus that depends on those fixed "numbers" ?
PHP Code:
// Method 1 : A simple math formula
local.bonus = (<value> / 100) * 3
// Method 2 : Using defnames
[DEFNAME bonus_calc]
bonus_0 0
bonus_100 3
bonus_200 6
bonus_300 9
bonus_400 12
..
bonus_1000 30
local.bonus = <def.bonus_<value>>
Also i can't test it right now with the script profiler

I think second is marginally faster, but anyways two boths methods are pretty fast, the difference is almost zero.
I´ll use the first only for simplicity.

Code:
[FUNCTION TESTSCPSPEED]
LOCAL.T=<SERV.RTICKS>
FOR I 0 <ARGV[0]>
...
ENDFOR
SYSMESSAGE @89,,1 Loop Time=<EVAL <SERV.RTICKS>-<LOCAL.T>>

Nice i'll try that
, How much is reliable compared to the built in script profiler ?
