Labyrinth strength calculator Ihave the day off school so in between studying *cough* labyrinthing and doing other stuff.
I propose that i try and make a VB program that you just imput the number of curiuts and the width in km/m and it does all the calculations for you!!
i think this would save time , effort and confusion in testing labyrinths.
now if i could just get the trackstick to work better..... lol
anyway 3am here and ive just finished riding another labyrinth on my bike. so Gn everyone.
Matt.

Alas, I have no skillz in that area, or I would gladly help. But yeah, I am also looking forward to any web-based version you can come up with, since I'm running a Mac...I have Wine on it so I might be able to get an exe to work, but it's sketchy sometimes.

that's some good work!.
can you make it so that you can input the size in meters or km or miles and make it do the calculation to stadia for you?

Nice thing!
But, can I ask what the calculations are? I get different values in this flash and doing it myself with this data:
5 circuits, 7.36 stadia
my omph strength: 6.13
flash strength: 5.8

the script rounds any data you input. i'll change that, thank you for noticing it.
--edit--
the calcs:
total = ((int(circ*std/6*10))/10)
--edit--
fixed! i got a type mismatch, it works fine now, with these calcs:
total = (Math.round((circ*std/6*100))/100);
