Having just implemented a value<-->clicks converter in my Stars! utility, I thought I'd post details here..

For radiation, clicks = value, eg. 20mR = 20 clicks.

For temp, clicks = (temp + 200) / 4.

Grav is a lookup in the following table...
       12,  
       12,  13,  13,  14,  14,  15,  15,  16,  17,  17,  
       18,  19,  20,  21,  22,  24,  25,  27,  29,  31,  
       33,  36,  40,  44,  50,  51,  52,  53,  54,  55,  
       56,  58,  59,  60,  62,  64,  65,  67,  69,  71,  
       73,  75,  78,  80,  83,  86,  89,  92,  96, 100, 
      104, 108, 112, 116, 120, 124, 128, 132, 136, 140, 
      144, 148, 152, 156, 160, 164, 168, 172, 176, 180, 
      184, 188, 192, 196, 200, 224, 248, 272, 296, 320, 
      344, 368, 392, 416, 440, 464, 488, 512, 536, 560, 
      584, 608, 632, 656, 680, 704, 728, 752, 776, 800


Where the value to look-up is the gravity level times 100. There are a number of ambigiuous values, where the same gravity value could mean one of two clicks values; there is not a lot you can do about this, but they are all at the low end.

The main reason for the post is so that people don't have to work out the grav table again.

Hi
Can yea give me some handy examples for the grav values?
(I am not very good with datatables)
Cheers

Can yea also name the rows and columns?
Since there are 100 "clicks" they could be given a number from 1 to 100.

So you can designate columns as 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0
and rows as 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
where rows are the first no. and columns are the second, so I could find the garv value in g's for a certain point or vice versa quickly.

Cheers

To convert clicks to value, take the "tens" and lookup the row, and then follow the "ones" to find the column.

For example, 24 clicks: row = 2, column = 4, lookup = 44, grav value = 0.44g.

To convert values to clicks, do the reverse.

For example, grav = 5.60g, lookup row = 8, lookup column = 10, so clicks = 80+10 = 90 clicks.

There are actually 101 clicks.
