Why is my Total earned so low?
Viewing post in Incremental Booster Packs comments
I think the high number of spawning entities gets fully calculated for the display value when you trigger a long long cascade. However, the only ones truly captured in terms of profit are those that load in and are destroyed prior to the completion of the level, or before the lag forces the calculation to halt through some error in the way it tries to handle that calculation.
Clearly the way the display score is tracked and updated is different than the way the final profit is tracked and calculated, so it may be a simple fix of just using the properly tracked variable since the display score does appear to be correct.
hey! yeah that looked really wrong — my bad.
wasn't a bug or overflow though. i just didn't make it clear that higher stages slap negative modifiers on you, including how much gold you actually get to bank at the end. so you'd see this huge noted total mid-run and then the real banked amount felt like it "broke."
fixed the UI so it shows banked gold properly, and stages explain those modifiers better now. also added some other stuff from the comments by invadingoreo (nested pack selling, gallery or boss drop cards). thanks for the screenshot, that helped a lot
