A question about the average playerbase on sacnr.

My average playerbase now says 7.16.

At night we have usually only like 3 players online for 10 hours long, but most of the day we have 20+ players, how can the average playerbase be 7.16?

Not that it matters a lot but I'm curious if they use a special way to calculate it, because I would just think the playeramounts every hour / 24 hours would give the average, right?

It counts from when your server started, meaning its low because your server was empy in its earlyer days.

I really do not know, but they should to the average players "refresh" 24 / 24 hours.

That explains a lot yeah,
It was in a beta state for over a month, with only me and a friend online.

Will that ever reset or will it keep counting from the start?

It should reset on every restart.
Since i don't think that they're going to overload the database with the old data.

There is no need to overload it,

They can compress all old data into one variable, which will count X amount as much as the newest day. where X is the amount of days the server is up,

But I don't know.
Was just curious if anybody knew

you should also consider the player average calculation on a weekly/monthly basis. each hour counts (its players online at that moment), sum-up the cross sum of like 24*7 hours' player-amont, then divide that amount by 24*7, to get the average. the lots of few players moments (like 3-7 players) are decreasing the average...

Well thats the point, I dont have a lot of those moments.

From like 10 in the morning till 16 its like 15+/0 players. From 15 till 22 its like 25+.
After that its becoming less and usually at around 3 we have only 3 players online, but still don't see how that can get the average to 7

The way to beat it is to have a 20 player flat level for 24 hours it always help s with a big boost.
