What's game stats would you like to know if you could?

Recommended Posts

Say you could get fairly specific game stats based on actual timed event triggers from a pin what sort of things would you like to know?

 

Scoring rate through out the game.

Selected Modes orders.

 

General stats like counts are quite simplistic so I was looking for ideas on what people think would be interesting.

I'm in two minds if I should publicly say what I've done.

 

I asked jack about some of this last night (also today) and he didn't think it would be added onto the hobbit but would likely be done with dialled in to a similar, but different degree.

 

My hobbit is now internet connected :D

I'd make a small leap and say that it would be possible to do this to a woz also seeing that it's the same platform.

 

Finally got it working tonight after guessing about how it could be done.

 

I can add things like automatic game high score tweeting (might have to re-enable daily high scores).

 

I will also probably be making a Splunk game analysis app for a work hackathon we are doing this week. I'm unsure if I really want to lug my hobbit into work for it however :/

 

I can pull all the already recorded events stats (you can see these in the audit gui in game) from the game in realtime. Unfortunately they are not as granular as I would have liked. Not every triggered switch or bonus shows up in the logs. There still is enough interesting events to make something decent .

Interesting... I am a new and crap player, and any stats that can help me improve, especially on the Hobbit, would be useful.

If we could get % missed opportunities or shots would be a good start?

I'm limited to logged triggers unless I build in some optical recognition of the ball via a web cam or something ;)

 

The sorts of things I get to see are beasts hit, smaug multiball started, some(?) of the scoring, start and end of balls, overall score all with timestamps.

I havn't 100% decoded all the events yet so I might get a better idea a little later but i'm limited by what data they capture.

 

I don't believe I can change any of the game code to get it to log extra functionality.

 

Just found out that I can't do this for my work project as they are doing work focused projects this year ... booo earns.

 

Here are some sample events from a real game.

From this small sample you can see that I trigger a mode "the contract".

 

This particular game mode wants you to collect all dwarves. I only collected 8 thus did not complete the mode.

 

It would have been nice if every scoring shot was logged but more aren't. Even fairly passive objects generate points ie. hitting slings (25 points).

I hate game stats, all I get out of them is an indication of what a crap pinball player I am.......

 

:slamtilt:..........................then, shortly after..............:realmad:

 

I hate high score tables for the same reason!! [emoji20][emoji848][emoji33]

I'm not exactly a tier 1 player myself, rather i'm interested in just trying to get better.

I have a general sense in how well i'm doing over time but no actual metrics on it.

 

I know it wouldn't be for everyone, I just saw that the jjp platform actually recorded this and thought it might be an interesting to see what insights (apart from general crap play) could be obtained from what they log.

 

jjp will probably lock me out of this with a future update anyhow :\

 

jack if your reading this ... please don't, im just trying to make something that I love just that little cooler :D

Seems to me different folks will want to see different stats, so maybe front end that lets you customise what and how you see it. An operator may want to see it differently to a player trying to skill up to someone wanting to mod a game. With a front end you could add features like elapsed time between hitting shots, shots never hit etc. Cool project :cool: and who doesn't love stats!

Would love to file through an audit menu of a TAF in the 90s.

 

That one is easy Maxi, it would go like this..................
