Improving the statistic graphs#112

It would be cool if the statistic graphs in the score thing,
would be able to display 2 different dimensions at once.

So for example, militiary population, all resources gathered exploration and villagers shown in a graph, with the first 2 graphing options doesn’t really show more than one thing.

“Percentage of current”, scales 1 thing to 100% then the other displayed dimensions are all so small that the form a small line at the bottom, which for any human eye is just 100% flat. This should be fixable, by calculating the % value for each dimension. Then you could see for example, at time T player A got 66% of villagers at some point and player B had 34%, but player B had 75% of army, while A had 25%, and then player B killed a lot of player A workers. This would enable myself and caster to see patterns in that view more easily, without having to switch back and forth.

“Actual value” has the same problem, the biggest value of different graphs dominates in magnitude so much which makes it so any other thing is just a flat line at the bottom. But I think comparing different kinds of values with it is relatively hard to implement, because it would require changing the axis of the graph and implementing complex logic.

Also the colors are really hard to see. I would love it to be able to choose different colors and choose different pattern for different graphed dimensions. Currently everything is the player color and then has some striped pattern on it, but with 3 different dimensions it’s really hard to distinguish between which pattern is what.

Love capture age, I bought the pro version subscription and I love the way the interface looks and how interactive it is.

Thanks for your suggestion, @candybomberz . I am taking notes of this currently. If you have given this any more thought, I would love to hear about it!

One thing I’m curious, though, is what is “Relative to maximum” missing for your use-case? From what I can see, this allows you to display a line that is relative to the highest value of the same type. This way, you can effectively see what the relationship between vill-count, mil-count, and resources collected is for each metric individually by comparing same-pattern lines.

Yeah, my suggestion was to be able to display different stats from different dimensions, with each dimension being graphed to the maximum value displayed for it.
