Test your knowlege about units

Postby ETFreeman » 28 May 2020, 17:15

Hey, i wrote a pretty good questions generator about units characteristics in SupCom.
It may ask something absolutely stupid sometimes, but mostly it is ok :D

If you wanna learn something new or just realize how small you know about the game, you can try it here:

What is the energy cost of a Monkeylord? Lame. Try comparative questions instead, like which unit is fastest: Hoppie, Mongoose, Snoop, or Blazd

If you don't need economy questions - you can uncheck such type of questions
Comparative questions may be good but it's not that easy to create all groups of "similar" units to compare. Later maybe.

Doesn't even have the important questions like how many full rotations a UEF t2 shield does in 16 seconds. :cryingdirly:

It had a question "What is the DPS of Tactical Missile Defence" until i fixed it :lol:
I think that the knowledge about it gives too big adantage so i remove this question from the genarator

It allow you to be mistaken by 10% of answer
If you wrote "2.3" it would be right answer, for example

I fixed long numbers just now, it won't have more than 3 symbols after decimal point

Disappointing to see negativity towards a contributor who has chosen to use their own personal time to build a free tool that could help the player base.

I've often thought of making a similar tool myself, great to see someone beat me to it :P I struggle to remember key stats, being a fairly casual player myself. As constructive feedback, what about making it multiple choice? Might be easier to `feel` your way to the correct answer with a few specific options on screen? Great work so far!

Which negativity, exactly?

I swear some people in this community get off on being offended for other people not getting a literal parade every time they post.

Thanks for this.

Is there a "next" button I'm missing or is the only way to get a new question to refresh the page?
