Function Documentation

int CHAR_GetMaxExperiencePerMission

G_UpdateCharacterExperience

G_GetEarnedExperience

Note

Explanation of the values here: There is a maximum speed at which skills may rise over the course of the predicted career length of a veteran soldier. Because the increase is given as experience^0.6, that means that the maximum XP cap x per mission is given as log predictedStatGrowth / log x = 0.6 log x = log predictedStatGrowth / 0.6 x = 10 ^ (log predictedStatGrowth / 0.6)

void CHAR_ParseData	(	dbuffer *	msg,
		linkedList_t **	updateCharacters
	)

Parses the character data which was send by G_MatchSendResults using G_SendCharacterData.

Parameters

[in]	msg	The network buffer message. If this is nullptr the character is updated, if this is not nullptr the data is stored in a temp buffer because the player can choose to retry the mission and we have to catch this situation to not update the character data in this case.
	updateCharacters	A LinkedList where to store the character data. One listitem per character.
