could you make a qt interface for linux? I would really love you if you made a gtk interface haha.

I'll play with it and see what I get. My Linux laptop died of a broken internal power connection, so I only run it under emulation on my mac now. Nowhere near as fun. But it would be Qt, not GTK. GTK is worlds of no-fun to deal with on any other platform.

I'm seeing a slight problem.

If you put in 6 as the range you end up with -3, when you should have -2. The -3 penalty does not apply until you reach 7 yards.

The trend continues up the chart. 31 yards gives you a -8 a full 19 yards before the actual -8 threshold at 50 yards.

I ran into a similar problem in my own code when making my droid app.

Looking at your code I see the issue.

int i;
int target;

target = abs(yds);
for(i=0; range_band[i] > 0 && range_band[i] < target; ++i);

return 0 - i;

This should have one additional line

int i;
int target;

target = abs(yds);
for(i=0; range_band[i] > 0 && range_band[i] < target; ++i);

if(range_band[i] != target) i--;

return 0 - i;

Please do ;)

I did! It's not released yet, but a screenshot of the new functionality is up in my own thread. You can find the link in a reply above.
