Simulate to determine overal strength
Posted: 03 Nov 2011, 09:46
Hi,
do you think, writing all feature requests in the thread Feature requests would be the best?
I personaly would prefere to write each (at least almost each, similar requests could be collected) request in an own thread, so it's more "sorted", you can recognize new requests easier, speak/read/write about only about that one you are interested in and discuss it in one straight line, without interrupting of discussion of other threats.
(And still the Magarena-forum is not big at the moment.)
So I write my request here.
(Of course if you prefere it other, I will do it next time into Feature requests.)
There is a (VERY NICE) feature of determining the strength of two decks in a duel by simulating a lot of games.
How about a feature of determining the OVERAL strength of a deck?
How it could be realized - maybe you like to know?
My idea is the following:
in the part where you setup the count of games to simulate and start the simulation, there would be needed only one more checkbox, named maybe "all decks" (or "overal" or something else)
functionality (when this box is checked):
the simulation should be done as usual, but after it is finished, it should load the next deck (from the used deck-directory) for the opponent, and continue the simulation.
And continue, till the simulation were done with all decks (for the opponent only - of course).
Yes, I know, the simulation would be took a huge time and probably it should be done "over night".
(Maybe you can reduce the simulation number, because playing against different decks give also good estimation.)
"Simple" continue the simulation should be the first (minimum) part, but (as I'd told in an other thread) I would like to receive as many info as possible.
So I would like not only the "final" result, but also the results of each deck.
At the screen, maybe shown a text-window, where the last line could be look like:
Playing against "Elves.dec": 12/100 - 75%
(meaning 12 games played of 100, 75% victory).
On the screen this (last) line should be best replaced, till it's finished, so maybe you will see:
Playing against "Affinity.dec": 65%
Playing against "Blue_Power.dec": 42%
Playing against "DL_Burn.dec": 48%
Playing against "Elves.dec": 12/100 - 75%
Maybe this feature could also be used to create puzzles in that way, that you get the information, that an mainly strong deck has problems with this or that opponent-deck. So maybe a puzzle could be interested, how to beat that one.
Ohhh, and if you don't know what you can do in your sparetime and like to code all your time ...
It would be much more nice, if only ONE game will be played against one deck, THEN immediately load the next deck and after finished ALL decks, continue with first deck.
=> in this situation, you will get an overview of the result and so could set the simulation-count to a very high (or infinite) number and stop when you like.
That's for all,
Bernhard
