So, recently, when I was working on my BTD5 farm analysis, I wanted to include monkey village calculations. However, I noticed that the description of a monkey village was “Monkey Village does not attack bloons but instead lowers cost of all towers and upgrades in radius by 10%. Has many useful upgrades that help nearby towers.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
However, I was playing on Hard difficulty, and I noticed that the Farm, which costs $1080 when placed in a monkey village costs me $970. Why is that? Shouldn’t it cost 90% of $1080, which is $972?<\/p>\n
So BTD5 villages work in a weird way. On easy mode, the tower costs are 85% of normal towers. On hard mode, the tower costs are 108% of normal towers…<\/p>\n
except they’re not exactly 85% or 108%… they’re rounded to the nearest $5.<\/p>\n
Villages when doing their calculations also round to the nearest 5. The village charges me $970 instead of $972 for a farm placed in hard mode. The 1-0 upgrade, which costs $325 should cost $292.5, but it’s also rounded down to $290. It seems that all costs are rounded down<\/strong> to the nearest 5.<\/p>\n To achieve this in Google Sheets, which I used, I used the rounddown() function.<\/p>\n =<\/span>5<\/span>*<\/span>ROUNDDOWN<\/span>(CELL<\/span>*<\/span>0.9<\/span>\/<\/span>5<\/span>,<\/span>0<\/span>). I multiplied the cost of the tower by 90% to get the 10% discount.<\/span><\/p>\n Here’s<\/a>\u00a0my BTD5 farm comparison guide.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" So, recently, when I was working on my BTD5 farm analysis, I wanted to include monkey village calculations.
