Tickspeed Upgrades from Time Shards asymptotically hardcap in a way not present in vanilla AD #16

Closed James103 closed 3 months ago

James103 commented 4 months ago

Describe the bug Tickspeed Upgrades gained from Time Shards appear to asymptotically approach a hardcap shortly after the softcap, such that as the amount of Time Shards approaches infinity, the corresponding number of Tickspeed Upgrades approach a value a few hundred upgrades above the softcap. For example, a softcap of 300,000 Tickspeed Upgrades leads to a hardcap of 300,475.

This breaks balance after Celestial 1 because players will be lacking the Tickspeed necessary to push for higher RM.

In BE port:

You have gained 300,475 Tickspeed upgrades from 1e1.000e12 Time Shards. Next Tickspeed upgrade at 5.51e37214, increasing by ×1.33 per Tickspeed upgrade gained.

In vanilla:

You have gained 876,339,416 Tickspeed upgrades from 1.00e1.000e12 Time Shards. Next Tickspeed upgrade at 9.47e1.000e12, increasing by ×7.56e2282 per Tickspeed upgrade gained.

To Reproduce Do any one of the following (from least to most time consuming) A:

  1. Run this command: FreeTickspeed.fromShards(new Decimal("1e1000000000000"))
  2. Notice the value on newAmount is somewhere around 300,475 in the BE port versus 876 million in vanilla.

B:

  1. Get to Eternity.
  2. Run this command: player.timeShards = new Decimal("1e1000000000000")
  3. Check the Time Dimensions tab and notice it says "You have gained 300,475 Tickspeed upgrades" in the BE port versus "You have gained 876,339,416 Tickspeed upgrades" in vanilla.

C:

  1. Get to Reality, and ideally at least 1e14-1e18 RM, Celestial 1 completed, and high rarity GL600 Time and Dilation glyphs.
  2. Push Time Shards as much as you can in a single Reality.
  3. Check the Time Dimensions tab and notice the Tickspeed Upgrade amount increase slow down harshly. The value of X in "next Tickspeed Upgrade at X" becomes much smaller than the actual number of Tickspeed Upgrades.

Expected behavior Tickspeed Upgrades from Time Shards should scale similarly to that of vanilla, with one being able to achieve millions of Tickspeed Upgrades from Time Shards by the end.

known, currently working on fixing export/import errors from be to be, then focus will be put on (turns out its a seperate smaller issue and doesnt really need to be fixed rn) this
