Feature: Visual Skill Tier

[Skillz4Killz]

The current ST number of 0-29 does no one any good except knowing what skill tier someone is. The actual numerical value of VST would be so much better and provide so much more potential tools to developers who can build an insane amount of stuff with it.

Furthermore, the numbers 0-29 can be figured out by the numerical value.

Thank You

I think we're going to close this one, since the number can be calculated with the provided map in the resources folder.

@genexp I think you misunderstood. The number we are requesting is the numerical representation of Visual Skill Tier. API is currently giving us a number from -1-29. However, in game this number is shown as 0-3000. This number is what the community has been asking for. I think this issue may need to be reopened.

We're looking for the exact number on the first column of your table.

A visualization may help here.

For the sake of simplicity the display for VST has 3 core parts.

1. the skill tier name (as represented in API by -1 through 29)
2. the skill tier color (as represented in API by -1 through 29)
3. the actual VST number (shown as 1462 for this player in this image)

Community developers are looking for the third item on the list. Having the actual VST number would allow community developers to create dynamic VST meters showing a players exact VST much like it is shown in the game.

Ok, thanks for for the help. Hard sometimes finding things.. I found them! We have VST for each season and will add.
