So I was doing some math on Rat Trap Truck farming and I wanted to make sure I did my numbers right. I keep coming up that my multiplier is 100% more that what it shows. I remember there was a hidden bonus from the Heights buildings, but I thought I read that that was no longer hidden. What gives?

Not to be rude, but are you sure you’re doing the math right? 100% sounds like you aren’t including the base amount. ie if your multiplier shows 200%, you would multiply the XP value by 3 (or 300%)

15000x(1+6.8985)x5=592387The calculation should be (Base XP for placing item) x (1+multiplier) x (XP collider bonus)20,000 x (1+1.9) x 520000 base xp for item1 base multiplier1.9 =190% bonus5 xp collider multiplierPretty close to what you got but RTTs are inconsistent and cause crashes more often imo

15% of 100 = 100×15% = 15100 plus 15% = 100+15% = 115

My example was explaining how to do the formula, as you should be using 789.85% to figure it out, not 689.85% as you were insisting. I also stated that RTTs are notoriously inconsistent.

20,000 x (1+1.9) x 5
20000 base xp for item
1 base multiplier
1.9 =190% bonus
5 xp collider multiplier

15% of 100 = 100×15% = 15
100 plus 15% = 100+15% = 115

An interesting side note, at a bonus of 1234% one RTT will get you one level-up

One Rat Trap Truck, base 15,000 XP times 5 for the collider times 689.85 % multiplier as shown in my game = 517,387.5 actual payout
But I checked. I got 592,390 XP for one truck, which makes my multiplier come out to 789.85 %
I know I've been gone 2 years but did I forget something?

For symantic sakes, the XP collider is a multiplier (x5) and the 689% is a bonus.

You are multiplying the bonus. You should be adding the bonus. It is not a multiplier. It is an added bonus.
