Initial values
From DKPLP Doc
The tab named initial values contains information on the initial DKP settings that will control how the calculations are made.
Note: Any changes made to any of these configuration values will require that you reparse the log file before the changes take effect. Changes made do not affect the currently loaded data set.
Default weight
The default weight is the weight that should be applied to all reward intervals unless another weight is specifically assigned.
Initial weights (from the first interval)
The initial weights (from the first interval) value is the weight that should be applied to single reward intervals, starting from the first. The weights are entered as "w1, w2, w3" where wn is weight number n. The first weight is applied to the first reward interval, the second weight to the second reward interval and so on. If there are more weights than reward intervals then weights are applied until all reward intervals have been assigned weights.
For example the following weight configuration will weight the first reward interval with a factor 4 and the second with a factor 2.
4, 2
Initial weights (from the last interval)
The initial weights (from the last interval) value is the weight that should be applied to single reward intervals, starting from the lasy. The weights are entered as "w1, w2, w3" where wn is weight number n. The first weight is applied to the last reward interval, the second weight to the second to last reward interval and so on. If there are more weights than reward intervals then weights are applied until all reward intervals have been assigned weights.
For example the following weight configuration will weight the last reward interval with a factor 3 and the second to last with a factor 1.5 .
3, 1.5
Initial DKP reward modifier
The initial DKP reward modifier value controls the initial value of the DKP reward modifier.
Initial DKP bonus per day
The initial DKP bonus per day value controls the initial value of the global bonus.
Default DKP bonus per interval
The default DKP bonus per interval value is used by default in the Bonus (interval) (called Bonus without zero-sum) column in the reward interval interface if nothing else has been specified.
DKP bonus per interval (from first)
The DKP bonus per interval (from first) value is the value that should be applied to each Bonus (interval) (called Bonus without zero-sum) column, counting from the first reward interval. If this value is for example set to "200, 100" then the first reward interval will have 200 DKP as reward interval bonus, the second 100 and the third will have the default DKP bonus per interval value.
DKP bonus per interval (from last)
The DKP bonus per interval (from last) value is the value that should be applied to each Bonus (interval) (called Bonus without zero-sum) column, counting from the last reward interval. If this value is for example set to "400, 17" then the last reward interval will have 400 DKP as reward interval bonus, the second 17 and the third will have the default DKP bonus per interval value.
Default DKP bonus per participant
The default DKP bonus per participant value is used in the Bonus (participant) (called Reward without zero-sum) column in the reward interval interface if nothing else has been specified.
DKP bonus per participant (from first)
The DKP bonus per participant (from first) value is applied to each Bonus (participant) (called Reward without zero-sum) column, counting from the first reward interval. If this value is for example set to "2, 1" then the first reward interval will have 2 DKP as participant bonus, the second will have 1 DKP and the third will have the default DKP bonus per participant value.
DKP bonus per participant (from last)
The DKP bonus per participant (from last) value is applied to each Bonus (participant) (called Reward without zero-sum) column, counting from the last reward interval. If this value is for example set to "2, 1" then the last reward interval will have 2 DKP as participant bonus, the second to last will have 1 DKP and the third will have the default DKP bonus per participant value.
Added participant bonus per minute
The added participant bonus per minute value is multiplied by the number of started minutes in each reward interval and then added to the participant bonus. Basically this value is awarded to every participant for every minute they participated in the raid. Configuring the number of decimal digits to a higher value can be useful when using this value.
For example if the value is set to 0.01 then every participant in a reward interval that spans 10 minutes will receive a bonus of 0.01*10 = 0.1 DKP. Someone who has participated in a raid spanning 200 minutes will thereby receive a total bonus of 200*0.01 = 2 DKP for participating in the raid.
