drkkni, updated. Should be working now

Used this for a bit, then I put in 11.5 million Yen and it said there were no ideal blocks available. But there is one of 5 10k, 10 5k, and 15 1k bundles. Using my own program, I also found two others.

yksou, Hi The calculator actually works in three stages:

1 - First it tries to find perfect blocks (i.e. combinations without any partial / loose packs).
2 - If that fails, it looks for imperfect blocks but using only full packs.
3 - If that also fails, it finally resorts to combinations with partial / loose packs.
In all cases, it aims to use the smallest possible number of blocks (i.e. spend the least number of bills/packs).

After the last update there was a bug: the “loose bundles” mode searched for the maximum number of blocks instead of the minimum. I’ve fixed that already. If you still see the issue, try clearing your cache and reloading the page.

Also, if you don’t want to use packs of a certain denomination, you can “disable” them by clicking the green checkbox next to that denomination.

If I misunderstood your issue, could you DM me or open an issue on GitHub, with a screenshot and description of the problem?

hey can you somehow press some button to limit partial packs? it always gives me like 8/10 variants with partial stacks and the one that doesn't use partial stacks just uses up all of the smaller dominations and leaves the biggest one, is there an option to make it more balanced like if you have 200 100$ packs and 100 of 50$ and 20$ it will calculate in a way it uses combinations close to 50% 100 and 25% 50 + 20?

I've updated the calculator. Made some UI improvements, such as denomination sorting, and made the "Execute order" dialog more convenient.
I also made changes to the calculation algorithms and improved overall performance.

I just tried your calculator today and I really do like it, well done! It took me a while to figure out, that you can uncheck denominations if the job requires only one kind of bills. I bet you cover this in your video, but of course I do not read instructions! ^^

The only little improvement I might suggest is to change the order of the denominations according to the scanner output ingame. When I scan all my money at once, the list goes from Dollar to Euro to Yen and the denominations from low to high. Your calculator has the "right" order of currencies, but goes from high to low. It happened more often than I would like to admit, that I entered wrong numbers because of the different sorting. So at least for me it would be great if you could switch them up.

@DepressoEspresso Even if someone's already posted something similar, it can still be worthwhile to post your own version as long as it's clear it's your own creation. It might even be beneficial to have your version present as alternative, allowing creators to checkout each others work and potentially learn from it. Perhaps your version does something better compared to this version? Maybe there are features that you thought of and the other didn't that happen to fill specific niches other players might have? Or maybe you're just looking for feedback to improve your skills?

When it comes to Steam workshop/guides, your thought should never be 'I'm not posting this because someone else posted something similar.'. Instead, it should be more like 'I'm posting this because it has something unique the others don't.' Typically, as long as its clear there is something significant that makes your version different from others (even if its just performance), it's fine to post it.

This is really well made and looks awesome! Will definitely be using this. Any chance you might add some kind of support for container sizes? This would especially be nice for those missions that require everything is sent in a specific container. If you could prematurely run the calculator to see how many containers you'd need, you'd be able to pre-order any you're still missing so they can deliver while your processing or preparing the money.

Depresso Espresso , Oh, thanks a lot! Yeah, I never tested the calculator with large numbers. Just tried it now—you're right, it does freeze up. But if you select only one or two denominations, it runs quickly.

All the code executes locally in the browser; the page loads just once. I'll check what can be optimized and update it soon.

Thanks again for your feedback!
