Damage Equation

To know how much damage an attacker (guntower, aircraft, ...) will do to a victim entity, you need to know the attacker's damage and damage type, the victim's armor against this damage type and your framerate.

Damage Type

Project Nomads uses two damage types:

• coll: used for collisions
• fire: catch-all type for any attack, explosion, skrit cloud, etc...

At the current moment, this wiki only lists "fire" type armor/damage for buildings.

Equation

Let $A_{d}$ be the attacker's damage of any type.
Let $V_{a}$ be the victim's armor against the same type of damage.
Let $fps$ be your game's framerate. Typically it is your monitor's refresh rate.
Let $\Delta$ be your game's delta frame time, as $\Delta ={\frac {1}{fps}}$.
Unless the guntower is of a missilefire type, then $\Delta$ always has a value of $0.5$

Then, let $V_{dr}=A_{d}\times \Delta -V_{a}\times \Delta$ be the victim's dealt damage.

For example, a level 3 John Guntower shooting one "fire" bullet with a damage of $40$ at a John Navigation Tower with a "fire" armor of $3$, and a framerate of 60fps:
First, $\Delta ={\frac {1}{60}}\simeq 0.0166$
Then, $V_{dr}=40\times 0.0166-3\times 0.0166\simeq 0.6166$
Thus, $0.6166$ damage will be dealt to the John Navigation Tower.
