"How to perform incompetent data analysis on tanks"
I'll make this as quick as possible, so probably bullet points will do best.
Version 1.0 as of 19.06.19
(not sure if I missed some changes of the new patch though)
What is this?
Where did I get it from?
But why?
Structure of the file
IMPORTANT! Read before you complain: Weaknesses of the calculation:
I will not put this into spoilers for obvious reasons.
Sheet 1:
- Due to my incapability of getting some data from the files (like the reference points for accuracy/penetration far/mid/near etc, this calculation will always compare performance at max range. If you compare a SU76 vs a P4, then you scew your data to the disadvantage of the SU76, as it has better accuracy and pen than used in the calculation.
- It does not take into account anti-infantry capability. So if a unit performs bad in the analysis, then ask yourself if it makes up for it in some other category, like AI, but also speed etc
- Rate of fire is a bit buggy, since there are more factors to the units than raw reload time and I don't know where to get them from. But it can be an okay-ish estimate. If you know where to find them in the Tools-App, please write me a PM.
Sheet 2:
Oh boy, where do I begin?
- no weighting of stats that might objectively be more important
- no weighting of extreme outliers (i.e. a tank with 0 damage will not be punished as hard by the model as it should be)
- negligence of marginal utility (e.g. the damage increase from 159->160is objectively better than the increase form 160->161, but the model does not account for that)
- negligence of anti infantry performance
- model quality depends on the number of stats used
- negligence of positioning/flanking and utility abilities
- negligence of alpha damage, time-to-kill etc
- negligence of collision-based hits
