Drop rate error? Please Help!

[andrew0960]

So here is my drop rate setting,  i want normal cards to be 2% and boss/mvp cards to be 1%.

 

// The rate at which cards are dropped

item_rate_card: 40000 

item_rate_card_boss: 10000

item_rate_card_mvp: 10000

item_drop_card_min: 1

item_drop_card_max: 10000

 

 

However,  setting it to 4000, which is 40times the original rate that would be equal to 2% , but its actually only 0.2% at my server so making me change it to 40000 to become 2%.

 

Did i misunderstood the original drop rate? (0.05%)?   or is it some kind of error.

 

since setting it to 100 = 0.05% so 4000 should equal to 2% isnt it?.

Your item_drop_card_max: is 10000.

So even you set item_rate_card: 40000 it will still be 10000.

sorry for the late reply, 

 

i understand that.. but by changing it to over 100000 actually did increase the drop rate some how i dont know why...

 

for example if i set it to 40000, the drop rate is actually higher than when i set it to 10000, 20000, and 30000.

Max drop rate 10000 is actually correct. That's 100%, more doesn't make sense. It's not the max rate for the drop rate.

 

The base card drop rate is 0.01%. So 40x rates would result in a 0.4% drop rate. If you are using renewal you might have a 50% drop penalty which would explain why it's 0.2% for you.
