So.. depending on the number of ascensions youve done and how you got real SS... it could vary quite substantially from what you get from above formula.

the formula here, gives number of 10% increases... so if you've bought $$ ss or USS, then you will get a result higher than the one that would be correct...

but you usually know how many times you've used $$, so you can calculate the correct number from this formula too... (by subtracting a few, depending on how many $$s you've used...)

unless your juan

Then to avoid confusion on how your bank size has been increased. What if the suggestion was altered to show the percentage that your bank is increased.

So if you've bought the $20 SS that gives you a 20% increase and have ascended once that is another 10%. Add in the 10 PPTs you've done which are 10% each..

So what if the suggestion were to show that with the given info above you would have a 130% bank size increase. You would easily know that you've only bought the $20 SS once and ascended once, so it'd be simple to know what the number of PPTs were.

But here's a question with the bank size on ascension. Is the bank increase when you ascend actually caused by the ascension itself or the PPT that you get for free upon ascending?

The bank increase (and the PPT, and the other bonuses) are caused by the ascension - it's as if you paid $20 to get all those things. Unless I'm mistaken, of course

yar it gives you a FSS. All the bonuses with it. And yes, you can calculate the number of 10% increases, but it won't be the # of ppts, for that you need to subtract all the USS's then FSS's (including ascensions)

indeed... but this formula is the only one that doesnt require a lot of other info (or access to database records)
