Toolz' DPS table

[powerfulmind]

I think, something like this should be in the GLE. To let you know, here will be Damage Per Second value, counted on the Open Office.org Calc (Excel). The definition defines itself, so I think, no more descriptionz are needed.  If you want, indicate any eventual mistake.

Notez:
- explosionz' Toolz can,t have any DPS
- Boomerang and Wingz can hit multiple enemiez, so expect a few timez higher DPS for these two
- Warpstone and Wand Gruntz can't attack, so their DPS must be 0
- Spring, Gravity Bootz, and Glovez may be not too practical in Battlez because of long shot latency and/or its stun

A helpful thread.But this thread will be better with table mode.

Your 'table' is extremely confusing ... probably due to the difference in punctuation for numeric values. I believe that your "0,25" (for instance) is meant to be one quarter of a second ... 0.25 in Americanese. And the larger numbers seem to lack punctuation to indicate multiple seconds and fractions of a second. Or I simply made two elements out of what should have been one.

So my attempt to create a table element with your values came out horribly wrong.

Also, not everyone has Excel (me, for one), so your example file is useless to those people. Even a JPEG or PNG image would work better.

While it's definitely a nice idea, there's one major problem: not all "attack" and "being hit" animations are equal. For instance, a sword grunt has two attack animations: one being a quick smack on the head, and the other being a long stab. He alternates between the two at random, which can affect the result of a fight. A similar problem is especially apparent for the spring grunt, who not only has one short and one long attack animation, but also one short "being hit" animation and one ridiculously long one that can keep going even after the blue bar filled up!

These problems make it impossible to fully accurately determine the outcome of a fight, and at least for the single player levels, I think the developers should have altered it so that the randomness factor is removed (but it could stay in Battlez, since it adds unpredictability to the match). Something to consider in Dizgruntled, I guess.

If reading carefully, you can see I warned everyone about randomness for time of "attack" and "being hit", so I know, too, that I'll never do a perfect table with always correct parameterz.  Maybe soon I'll make an attachment with an image, as GooRoo said, because this idea is pretty good.   But not today, now I'm too busy.  

EDIT: Anyway, maybe the Gruntz' imagez close to the DPS valuez are helpful for a little bit?
EDIT2: Do you all understand the DPS (Damage Per Second) definition? Ask if you need!

How to make it bigger - unknown for me. Just try to download and look on it in zoom. 

EDIT: Hmmm... If the image can be left-clicked like the link, my problem looks to be solved.
