Title: Speed Test :) Post by: Megagun on May 11, 2003, 08:25:27 pm pretty long time ago, i ran a Speed test on sc2..
i just wanted to post the results here so.. rules: every ship fights against the "sitting duck" (it cant move,shoot, or use special powers, basicly a modified Podship :) ) i counted how much seconds the ship takes to blow the sitting duck (in FRENZY mode!) so here are the results: Vux 2.5 Umgah 3 Ilwrath 3 Orz 4 Yehat 4 Chenjesu 4 Chmmr 4.5 Korh-ah 4.5 Utwig 4.75 Syreen 6 Supox 7 Pkunk 8 Zoq-Fot 8 Ur-quan 8 Arilou 10 Thraddash 10.5 Mycon 10.5 Slylandro 12 Spathi 14 Druuge 14 Earthling 17 MMrnMhrm 18 Androsynth 21 Melnorme 22.5 Shofixty Did Not Kill (died :) ) for a better aligned version, goto http://megagun.dyns.net/ and then goto the Starcontrol page Title: Re: Speed Test :) Post by: Death 999 on May 12, 2003, 09:39:42 pm I know of no frenzy mode. Also how many runs did you repeat with? It looks like the Ilwrath started close, and the Ur-Quan far away... this random effect will be reduced if you do repeats.

Title: Re: Speed Test :) Post by: Megagun on May 13, 2003, 08:44:42 pm its not..
and the goal of the test is to see which ship is the fastest, not to actually get the timing results... you could run a test yourself, ofcourse edit: i ran 2 tests for each ship, then ive taken the averages of em... Title: Re: Speed Test :) Post by: Death 999 on May 13, 2003, 09:08:48 pm ah. 2 isn't a statistically significant number of samples... Anyone else want to pitch in some more measurements?
Title: Re: Speed Test :) Post by: Megagun on May 15, 2003, 07:48:38 pm if someone wants to do that, he should restart the test all over again, because frenzy's speed is affected by the comp you have
Title: Re: Speed Test :) Post by: meep-eep on May 15, 2003, 07:54:05 pm It shouldn't be too hard to change your own uqm source a bit to have it keep statistics and let it fight battles of your choice automatically.
Define the average score to be 100.0, and you'll have pretty nice statistics if you leave it on overnight. Title: Re: Speed Test :) Post by: Cyamarin on May 15, 2003, 11:21:16 pm The point isn't the comp. speed, it's the relative measurements.
Title: Re: Speed Test :) Post by: Death 999 on May 16, 2003, 12:58:58 am well, it's really easy to, you know, normalize them.
