User:Poochy/Rumble strike calculations
From YPPedia
I am currently working on putting the data on Rumble strike calculations into tables. This is where I'm saving my work in progress temporarily.
Calculating strike size
- Look up the section that matches the number of groups in your combo. Take the base width, add the dropoff modifier, add the extra ball modifer, and you have the resulting width of the combo!
- What "dropoff" means: Dropoff is the number of loose balls that fall off the screen. Dropoff is the total number of loose balls in the entire combo
- What "extra balls" means: The minimum size for each group is 3 balls (2 uncharged balls + 1 charged ball). Any balls in a group beyond 3 is considered "extra balls". Extra balls are the total number of extra balls in the entire combo.
- Example 1: 3-5-3+3 = (group of 3), (group of 5), (group of 3), + (dropoff of 3) = 3 dropoff & 2 extra balls; resulting width = base width+dropoff modifier+extra ball modifier = 5+1+1 = 7 width
- Example 2: 7-5-3-3+3 = 3 dropoff & 6 extra balls; base width+dropoff modifier+extra ball modifier = 5+1+1 = 7 width
Base height and width
| # of Groups | Base height | Base width | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 | 2 | 5 | |
| 4 | 3 | 5 | |
| 5 | 3 | 5 | Yes, this is the same height as 4-group strikes. |
| 6 | 4 | 4 | The basic 6-group strike only contains 16 balls! |
| 7 | 5 | 4 | |
| 8 | 6 | 4 | Any strikes that are at least 8-Groups in size will make a scary noise when the strike is received |
