In theory it'd just require the "Commander Recieved $$$$" messages to be passed to TAG. Saying that there's enough trouble getting anything to pass to TAG half the time so I fear that adding more data would be counter productive.

Well I still don't think those messages would be sufficient, since (unless I missed something, which is possible) they just say "$$$ for payday", not if it came in from a miner/cashbox/payday.

If a team receives exactly $500, you can guesstimate that it probably came from a cashbox. Likewise, if they receive more than $4k in a single message, it's likely that the cash came from a miner load. Hardly difficult to work out.

How would you handle partial miner loads? Specmines?

spec mines are easy since they're regular infusions that bump the 1 minute payday higher

partial miner loads are trickier, but probably just anything that's not the amount that comes in per minute or a full miner load for the faction would do (since AFAIK TAG also collects stats about tech bases up and you can compensate for he yield GA if you know they have an exp)

#1) can you split this thread to bios payday and general allegiance (data)miner offense?

#2) Is datamining better than wisdom and estimation of the vets and voobs and inactive Players that are active in this subforum? :ninja:

People have (wrong) impressions all the time. Would you take some meds that I've never tested before (even on an animal) that I simply tell you it's self-evident it works?

That was a fantastic thread title.
