non upgraded marine vs. 3/3 siege tank

DPS: 5.81
Time to kill: 25.818 seconds
Time to death: 2.229 seconds
Kill rate: one Marine will kill 2 Siege Tank(s) without dying

great idea, but I think it needs some work. At least the bugs give funny results.

It should factor in attack damage and attack speed separately instead of DPS. There is a significant time difference between bringing something down to low HP and needing an extra shot to overkill it, and calculating it through gradual damage over time.

Does this calculator take splash into account? I can't imagine an ultralisk killing only 8 marines.

When the calculator claims unit A can kill X number of unit B, is it accounting for the lowered dps of group B as the units are killed off?

I put in DT vs probe to see if it was still one hit. Then I chucked in drone to see if it was still one hit as well and I forgot to put DT in again:

Warning: Division by zero in /home/a2980513/public_html/index.php on line 104

NOOOOOOOOOOOO

and I found this pretty funny:

Dark Templar vs Mutalisk
Calculations:

DPS: 35.43 *
Time to kill: 3.81 seconds *
Attacks to kill: 3 attacks
Time to death: 8.4 seconds *
Attacks to death: 14 attacks
Kill rate: one Dark Templar will kill 1 Mutalisk(s) without dying (40 health left) **

Turns out DTs pwn mutas!

In all seriousness though, thanks for this man, your work is greatly appreciated.

Wow sentries rape Terran

Also armour/shield upgrades didn't seem to work when adding them to the attacking unit.

armor in SC2 works like War3 (percentages) or 2 armor = damage reduced by 2? if its the second way doesnt that kinda suck if you get hit by immortal for example and you reduce his damage from 50 to 48 wth 2 levels of upgrade - wopy dudly doo!

I dont think the armor values are working properly, every time I tried adjusting armor, especially for zealots, it didn't change the amount of hits needed to kill the unit with armor upgrades.

Also, is there any way to account for marine combat shield upgrade?

I like it, I think it's useful if nothing else to figure out how many units of a certain kind you need to one-shot a certain enemy unit.

That can help for how many units to bring with a harass team, etc

Doesn't seem to work in Opera 10.10. All the dropdown lists just contain a single choice, which is all of the unit names mashed together. So the only attacker I can select is Protoss--ProbeZealotSentryStalkerImmortalColossus or whatever.
