New Content - Implemented Scaling monsters give stats based on mainstat

[Theraze]

September 18 - Scaling monsters now award stats based on your mainstat, rather than (because of the way scaling works) your Moxie.

So it's no longer advantageous to boost moxie rather than myst for saucerors. As an example.

What needs to change in mafia?

wastoid (14%)
Hit: 55%, Evade: 55%
Phylum: dude, Init: -10000, Atk: 83, Def: 133
HP: 99, XP: 10.38

Scaling monster exp calculations.

It took me a little bit to figure this out, but now I'm down to a bunch of monsters.txt changes, so it should be done soon.

I guess you can tell they are scaling if MOX appears in the Atk calculation or MUS in the Def calculation, or are you adding a flag to monsters.txt that'll work even when stats aren't known?

 

[lostcalpolydude]

I'm just looking for MUS, and for the most part copy-pasting the Atk: value, replacing MOX with a newly-added STAT.

Whoa. That sounds like you believe the monster's ATK is now based on the character's mainstat. If so, then you are mistaken. It is still based on MOX, just like it used to be. Only XP is different. Now they give XP as if the monsters ATK was based on mainstat, but that's only for XP calculation.

I wouldn't need to copy-paste if I was altering the Atk value.

Good. I wasn't sure. Thanks.
