I have been trying to think if there was a calculation that I could do in GM that would increase the xp needed for a level up on a reasonable scale.
I know that I could code it ALL out ( 99 times >.< ). But there has to be a better way.

Hmm.
Basic non-code concept
Maybe start of with:
30 XP needed for first level
When player levels up(reaches 30 or more), take the XP needed(30) multiply it by 1.1 then lastly add it to the original amount of XP needed. So now you would need 63(rounding down/up as needed).

After so many levels, say every five levels, increase the mutiple by 0.1.
If the player ever gets to 90 levels, they would be at around ( [Last XP needed * 2.8] + Last XP Needed).

Too complicated?

So let's say: Lvl 1 needs 50 EXP to level up Lvl 2 needs 150 EXP to level up Lvl 3 needs 300 EXP to level up Lvl 4 needs 500 EXP to level up (I did those calculations in my head lol, might be wrong ) Logged
