FORMULA_LEVELMAGIC and other formulas.

[Hermes]

Hello.

I am trying to get how these formulas are working. I mean something like this:

setAttackFormula(combat, COMBAT_FORMULA_LEVELMAGIC, 6.5, 6.5, 5.5, 7.5)

the part in source concerned with this:

case FORMULA_LEVELMAGIC:
{
	min = (int32_t)((player->getLevel() / minl + player->getMagicLevel() * minm) * 1. * mina + minb);
	max = (int32_t)((player->getLevel() / maxl + player->getMagicLevel() * maxm) * 1. * maxa + maxb);
	if(minc && std::abs(min) < std::abs(minc))
		min = minc;
	if(maxc && std::abs(max) < std::abs(maxc))
		max = maxc;
	player->increaseCombatValues(min, max, params.useCharges, true);
	return true;
......

there are four values. I think those are mina, minb, maxa, maxb and eventually minc, maxc. But what's the real order? Why are there two value for min and max damage :f.
Any ideas?

@edit
setAttackFormula from functions.lua

function setAttackFormula(combat, type, minl, maxl, minm, maxm, min, max)
	local min, max = min or 0, max or 0
	return setCombatFormula(combat, type, -1, 0, -1, 0, minl, maxl, minm, maxm, -min, -max)
end

Best regards,
Hermes

I also dont get the new formula but its easy to make your own formula

It is, but still, every formula in spells is based on the 4 values :f.

Check function setAttackFormula in 050-function.lua, because it changes the order for the function in sources, setCombatFormula.

Yep, it's there. Thanks for the clue : D.
Now those mina, minb and maxa, maxb values.

i still think its a strange formula
i use the one from realsofts or i make my own one sometimes
