Calculation of gear is broken (crates)

[dodnet]

I lost a battle some days ago and got a few equipment from that. When I had only 10 troops or so I had about 1 crate. Now I have > 80 troops and it shows 4 crates even though I have the same stuff like 2-3 days ago. Nothing more, nothing less.

Thats all I have:
Trading goods:    0
Horses:    1
Throwing:    0

Body armors:    10
Head armors:    7
Leg armors:    9
Hand armors:    9

Polearms:    0
Two handed:    4
One handed:    2
Shields:    2

Bows:    0
Arrows:    1
Crossbows:    0
Bolts:    0

With 82 troops why does that make me carry 4 crates? And why do I have more weight with more troops? Do my troops carry themselves?

Think something wrong with the basic crate formula in my mind, look at this example:

Mauwits here has 367 tickets. He has gear for about 200 of them. But he still has 1 crate. The weight he is carrying is 1kg.

Now the same Character with 100 troops still has 1 crate. But his weight is now 4kg.

The formula seems a bit screwy too me since the change.

ye i gotted a speed of 27... yesterday with this

Troops: 650
Speed: 7.450 meters per minute [zoom]
Equipment: 4,377 kg
Cargo: 61,737 kg (2058 crates)

But the next time i watched (several hours i believe)
It decreased too the current speed where its stays now.
I have almost 400 horses 340 are +3 rounceys the rest is crap.
Goods are 2850 of 1 type and 2x 500 of others.

Thats a normal bug harry for the first 5 minutes or so when you leave your desintation is shows a false reading for your speed, the same as when you switch to QM.

Now I got some goods and I only carry the crates for the goods, my equipment doesn't use crates anymore.

dodnet you sure? i still havnt found a successful formula for calculating how crates are now calculated, or you carrying only the 100*1 goods based on the new law of chadz?

I have two types of goods, but still less goods than troops.

Looking at my teammates the formula for goods -> crates is following:

If you one type of goods and less goods than troops:
crates = goods / 6

If you have one type of goods and more goods than troops:
crates = goods - (goods / 3)

I think the formula for multiple goods is the same...

edit: actually it does.

There is one thing that isnt in your formulas, its when its EQUAL to.

From what I tested, having equal number of troops/horses doesnt bring weight penalty, its the maximum limit.
