Jamie 'Entity' van den Berge for the novel pairwise filtering algorithm which provides some very impressive speedups.

Down to Earth Astronomy for the original PowerShell implementation which inspired this tool.

This website and the backend tool is written and hosted by Thomas Hurst.

#Elite dangerous shield generator code#

Source code for both this web frontend and the backend command-line tool is available on Github, and contributions and bug reports are welcome. To avoid having to perform a fully exhaustive search, only resistance boosters for damage types actually being received are considered, and all remaining possible pairs of boosters are filtered using a k-d tree to eliminate combinations that will always be beaten by other pairs. This tool is written in the high-performance buzzword systems programming language, Rust, with a frontend written in Javascript (using Sapper) and a little PHP. It gives typically-identical results, but runs in milliseconds instead of minutes without compromising on result quality. It is based on Down to Earth Astronomy's shield tester PowerShell script, as demonstrated in this video.

#Elite dangerous shield generator generator#

Very very annoying and you never see this on hazardous RES (unless you provoke the situation yourself by attacking 3+ wings at once).This tool allows you to determine the theoretically-best combination of shield generator and shield booster engineering for an Elite Dangerous starship.

Even on anaconda with class 7 A rated shield generator with 5 shield boosters, your shields are toast quicker than your shield cell bank (one) can work to restore them and once your shields are down, the hull goes to 50% or less during the time you are engaging FSD to jump into nearby star system. The bad thing about conflict zones are that if you have very bad luck and get those 4+ ships attacking you at once, its basically game over. When you were peppering that nasty python for like forever, you could have killed several equally ranked ships in RES WHEN LUCKY, of course RES has those nasty downtimes which balances it quite a bit. You cant really ignore him as he does damage while youre chasing higher ranked targets.Д®ven though there is more ships and hectic action, the ship strengths there are much higher so each kill takes longer.

Its very annoyning when your trying to progress your compat cank as Dangerous and that pesky competent cobra attacks you. You can choose your fights in RES but often times cannot in Conflict Zone. There are constant stream of ships in mad mayhem, RES on the other hand is much more slower pace but that also can have its action moments. For example taking down python in RES and CZ are totally different things. Ships are much better not only in combat rank, but in armor as well then their counter parts in RES. Often times you run into trouble as you get like three or four enemy ships attacking you at once, then you have mere seconds to live if you're not boosting to escape. There are plenty, sometimes too much, enemy ships flying around as well as friendly as you have to choose a side when you enter to CZ. Pledging is not required.Д¬onflict Zone are visually boring as there is no objects other than background galaxy, however they are very hectic in action, they are pure shoot'em ups, a real quake frag fests. This wiki page seems to be up to date with conflict zone kill rewards: ДЄlso, bounties and combat bonds are given a slight passive boost in systems controlled or exploited by Arissa Lavigny-Duval. It does not matter how much they're worth or what ships they are.Д¬onflict Zones are very good for that, as they are guaranteed to endlessly spawn high rank AI ships. To progress your combat rank you basically have to destroy ships of your rank or higher.

if youre novice and destroy a dangerous enemy, you'll get a big rank increase, but no increase at all the other way around. It is based on how tough enemies you kill, e.g. Combat Bonds (bounties sort of) are not that high as in Resource Extraction Sites but conflict zones have little bit more action for sure.Д¬ombat income does not affect your rank. Here you can find capital ships and intense combat with many ships in the fight (but this only appears on big war conflicts, not on smaller civil war conflicts). These are the locations where factions are at war. PMC Elite Dangerous, Conflict Zones PMC Elite Dangerous, Conflict Zones Conflict Zones
