#27 Max Candy and Stardust

[vinnymac]

@Wrexial and @mackhankins let me know what you think of this so far. It is doing what I wanted it to, but I don't think I am getting the right costs yet, which may have something to do with the functions from Blossom. If you look at http://pokemongo.gamepress.gg/power-up-costs It seems a bit off from those numbers.

I am sure that iterating with numOfUpgrades works properly. I just think that calculated costs for stardust and candies is off somehow.

Some Test Results

Charmander

(max level, current level, numberOfUpgrades)
Candy Stats: 22 20 4
(level, index, total candy)
20.5 0 2
21 1 4
21.5 2 7
22 3 10

(max level, current level, numberOfUpgrades)
Stardust Stats: 22 20 4
(level, index, total dust)
20.5 0 2500
21 1 5000
21.5 2 8000
22 3 11000

Bulbasaur

(max level, current level, numberOfUpgrades)
Candy Stats: 22 17 10
(level, index, total candy)
17.5 0 2
18 1 4
18.5 2 6
19 3 8
19.5 4 10
20 5 12
20.5 6 14
21 7 16
21.5 8 19
22 9 22

(max level, current level, numberOfUpgrades)
Stardust Stats: 22 17 10
(level, index, total dust)
17.5 0 2200
18 1 4400
18.5 2 6600
19 3 8800
19.5 4 11300
20 5 13800
20.5 6 16300
21 7 18800
21.5 8 21800
22 9 24800

If you look at the first result, you can see the candies go from 2 to 4 to 7 to 10 (2 + 2 + 3 + 3). From levels 20.5-22. So in just 4 levels it calculates 10 candies. But based on the power up costs site from 20.5 to 22 it should be 2 to 5 to 8 to 11 (2 + 3 + 3 + 3). I am not sure who is right or wrong here since we are pinning Blossoms code vs the Power Up Costs from gamepress. Let me know your thoughts.

Im not sure which is your bit and which is the test result from the site?

[vinnymac]

@Wrexial both test results are from the pull request methods. I will display the ones from the site below. I am certain they would be different right now. I am pretty sure the blossom code considers existing powerups num_upgrades, but both of these pokemon have 0.

These are the methods I ran. First param is the trainer level, second is num_upgrades, third is the pokemon's cp_multiplier

utils.getMaxCandyCostsForPowerup(20, 0, 0.5974000096321106)
utils.getMaxStardustCostsForPowerup(20, 0, 0.5974000096321106)

utils.getMaxCandyCostsForPowerup(20, 0, 0.5507926940917969)
utils.getMaxStardustCostsForPowerup(20, 0, 0.5507926940917969)

Charmander (20-22) 4 Upgrades

Methods

10 candies | 11,000 stardust

GamePress Power Up Cost

11 candies | 11,500 stardust

Bulbasaur (17.5-22) 10 Upgrades

Methods

22 candies | 24,800 stardust

GamePress Power Up Cost

23 candies | 25,600 stardust

@Wrexial gave me this sheet https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/118FlgG9YMrU6Ae74cwuhl_AXyEv0QEw9A7Pfvo8MJYI/edit#gid=0

I updated the blossom methods with it and hopefully that will make the costs more accurate now.
