FAQ: Rankings and statistics

And from what I can tell, the only way to see your public, displayed profile is to click the profile tab of your own posts. And if it's not there, then you click on your own medal.

Unless there is a sidebar link that I've missed or something...

I was looking at the statistics of one of our mods, and there seems to be something wrong with his statistics. I think something is really messed up here. For instance look at the Elapsed time in game and Time saved due SETA: Link

[Carlo the Curious]

Strange.

It looks like it might be a combination of a couple of uploads. I recently uploaded new game stats (which might be the 02:29), the 18hrs looks like it's from the previous one.

[Aro]

Perhaps some of the update calls to the database are failing so some info sorta 'merges' in?

[Edit: Guess nobody felt like bothering to try, removed the request.]

Perhaps some of the update calls to the database are failing so some info sorta 'merges' in?

That seems the most likely explanation. IIRC, there were similar observations in the German forum. Edit: here, check Rick's X3TC "stats".

Now, I bet that Carlo's latest update contains:

Code: Select all

<gametime value="8991"/>
<realtime value="8991"/>
<setatime value="0"/>

2:29:51 = (2*3600 + 29*60 + 51) = 8991
And that the value="0" has failed to replace the previous value in database.

[Carlo the Curious]

And that the value="0" has failed to replace the previous value in database.

Possibly, but some of the non-zero (in the newer one) values are also from the older one (e.g. active sats was 20-odd in the latest).

[BurnIt!]

Problem has been found and corrected. Zero-value stats are now properly taken into account.

[jlehtone]

There is something wrong with my math.

The upload quick summary (X3R):

Code: Select all

Game status: 	not modified
Player cash:          1,393,575,250 Cr
Total ship value:    18,554,413,437 Cr
Total station value: 16,438,224,212 Cr
Total station cash:  12,359,187,838 Cr
Total cash:          13,752,763,088 Cr
Total asset value:   34,992,637,649 Cr *

The stats page (clearly updated but ...):

Code: Select all

Player cash:          1,393,575,250 Cr
Total station cash:  12,359,187,838 Cr
Asset value:         53,120,180,473 Cr *

Something does not add up in these two. The quick summary is all that the modified uploads get, so it is not nice if it is somehow "off the ballpark".

So, I sum up numbers from the file myself, and get:

Code: Select all

Ship price:           5,671,457,036
Ship wares:          31,010,499,225 *
Total ship value:    36,681,956,261 *
Station price:       16,438,224,212
Station wares:        6,816,492,236 *
Total station value: 23,254,716,448 *
Station cash:        12,359,187,838
Player cash           1,393,575,250
Total asset value:   59,936,672,709 *
w/o station ware:    53,120,180,473 *

Then I extracted two ship entries from my stats file:

Code: Select all

                <ship subtype="0">
                        <ware value="2000000000" />
                        <ware value="2000000000" />
                        <ware value="2000000000" />
                        <ware value="2000000000" />
                        <ware value="103843790" />
                        <price value="22797700" />
                        <sector x="3" y="9" />
                        <sectorrace value="4" />
                        <race value="1" />
                        <shipclass value="0" />
                </ship>
                <ship subtype="0">
                        <ware value="2000000000" />
                        <ware value="2000000000" />
                        <ware value="2000000000" />
                        <ware value="2000000000" />
                        <ware value="2000000000" />
                        <ware value="2000000000" />
                        <ware value="2000000000" />
                        <ware value="23699034" />
                        <price value="22797700" />
                        <sector x="3" y="9" />
                        <sectorrace value="4" />
                        <race value="1" />
                        <shipclass value="0" />
                </ship>

And now it is all clear why my numbers do not match.

• The quick summary reads only one "ware" node from ship entries. Wares of ships are counted into the value of the ships, but only the statistic pages do include all ship wares.
• The inventory of stations (the wares) is not included in either the quick summary nor the statistics. But the station cash is listed separately. Bit inconsistent, even for statistics.

[shireknight]

Is the uplink thing broken at the moment because under my old stats I had loads of categories like "time spent playing the game" "time saved due to seta" etc but after loading updated stats earlier today I can now only see these ones

Jumpgates passed per hour 5 233
Distance travelled per hour 430 252
Missions completed per hour 0 470
Missiles fired per hour 0 546
Jumpdrive energy used per hour 36 571
Lasers fired per hour 335 595

Edit: Looking at jlehtone's (post above mine) he has 33 categories in his stats

[Flector]

Yeah looks like something has gone wrong with your stats. Perhaps try to upload them again?

PS: note that jlehtone's stats are for X3R and there are different categories for X3R compared to X3TC.

[jlehtone]

X3TC can have more categories than X3R does.

All the categories that shireknight has are "per hour". Those are not in the file. They must be computed when the Statistics database is updated. So there is clearly something wrong in having calculated value, but not the values it was calculated from.

[shireknight]

Thanks guys I'll upload them again later today and see if it fixes it

[shireknight]

Hmm I've uploaded them another two times now and it's still the same and now I have another much more serious problem -my stats are saying my game is modified but I don't use scripts and in fact have never used one since Reunion and only then it was Cycrows ship manager thing so that I could incorporatr B5 ships into my game.

Sounds like my save game is corrupting dosn't it? I'll open a support query in the tech forum to see if a member of Egosoft can help

[Lyth]

just FYI,

My game upload reports I have 8720 ships, I only have 5029 ships and the other 3701 are active satellites spread over atleast 10 per sector.

I'm not complaing just letting you know, very possible it was my .pck rather than the statistics app as it crashed twice when trying to create one.

Only uploaded to prove I had 2500 active spitfyres in a non-modded game because the screenshots weren't enough proof for them.

According to the upload I have 0 active sats.

How do I upload stats ?

[Lyth]

Press return in game or click on the top left hand corner icon
>
Advanced
>
Upload Statistic.

Goto the Home section of this website, Select Games, Select X3 Terran Conflict then Uplink.
Find in your Mydocuments/Egosoft/

Upload

[jdoggyfu80]

Thanks

How do I upload stats ?

http://www.egosoft.com/support/faq/faq_ ... &version=0

[exogenesis]

I suddenly went from
1 flag = uploaded
to
3 flags = top3 & top 100 & uploaded

But I didn't upload further in the meantime.

What's going on with these stats ?

Is the : attempted boarding = 1, suceeded boarding = 1
(plot), still giving skewed results ?

[jlehtone]

Yes. 100% Boarding efficiency ranks 1, and rank 1 is within Top3.

Without upload? Then I guess that admins have fixed some error in the update routine and have reprocessed entries.
