profession levels

[Araki545]

well when you do runs and sell the stuff your profession level goes up. my question is how much faster is your processing per level up exactly.

i am just really curious because my salt level is 100.

I don't think anyone besides @Wilco or @Ciaran know the exact amount tbh.

Basically; the higher the level the faster you process.

 

[Ciaran]

Time per percent formula for processing:

y - ( x / 300 )

Where x is your profession level, and y is 0.3 if you have the respective license for the processor, or 0.9 if you do not have the license.

This returns the time the game will wait per percent, it is clamped at a minimum value of 0.001, therefore you can work out your total processing time by multiplying the value from the previous formula by 100. (Its late, but most of that should be right. Its not rocket science after all...)

i do not find this logical

level 100

100/300=0,333

0,3 - 0,333 = (-0,033)

(-0,033) multiplied by 100 = (-3,3)

so the numbers are negative am i that bad at math lets try again

level 150

150/300=0,5

0,3 - 0,5 = (-0,2)

(-0,2) multiplied by 100 = (-20)

i cant get this to work the number of seconds is increasing with each level. math is hard at 2:50 in the morning

help my brain, im probs stupid                                              funny thing my math grade is C

@Araki545 he won't know you've replied unless you quote/ mention him, or if you're lucky and he views the topic again!

Take note of " [COLOR= rgb(191, 191, 191)] [/COLOR]it is clamped at a minimum value of 0.001 " meaning that that would be put back to 0.001 seconds per percent, yielding a processing time of 0.001 * 100 = 0.1 seconds. Nobody can process faster than that.

If you were to use a lower value rather than 100, you would find that the time decreases:

Level 1

( 0.3 - ( 1 / 300 ) ) * 100 = 29.666666666666666666666666666667

Level 2

( 0.3 - ( 2 / 300 ) ) * 100 = 29.333333333333333333333333333333

Level 15

( 0.3 - ( 15 / 300 ) ) * 100 = 25

Level 75

( 0.3 - ( 75 / 300 ) ) * 100 = 5

For your convenience, here is every level and the processing speed for that level: http://www.altislife.co.uk/stuff/prof.txt

Everything after Level 90 is just an achievement and yields no sort of reward.
