DPS Report Changelog
====================

V1.22

Fixed:

- The healer won MVP on practically every run. The score measured each player
  as a share of the group's total for a metric, and those shares are not
  comparable: healing is a one-person job, so a healer holds around 85% of the
  group's healing before doing anything clever, while damage is split five ways
  and even the best DPS holds about 30%. Weighting those against each other
  meant the healer started roughly three times ahead of anyone else and the
  run itself barely mattered.

  Each metric is now measured against the best performer in the group at it, so
  topping healing and topping damage are both worth the same before the role
  weights are applied. The weights were retuned to match, using several thousand
  simulated runs plus real ones, and checked so that a couple of extra
  interrupts cannot flip an award that was otherwise decided.

  In practice the award now moves around: the best DPS on a run where they
  carried, the healer on a run where they did, and either can lose it by dying
  or by standing in things.

- Finishing a Mythic+ key erased the run you had just completed. If "Reset
  meters on Mythic+ start" was switched on, starting the next key threw away
  every stored run along with the meter numbers -- so "Preview Last Run
  Announce" had nothing to show, and any meter left displaying a saved run
  jumped back to live data. The automatic reset now clears the meter numbers
  only. The Reset button on the meter itself still clears everything, which is
  what it is for.

  Stored runs are capped at the ten most recent, since that automatic reset was
  the only thing keeping the list from growing forever.

New:

- "Explain Last Run MVP" button under Tools. Prints, to your own chat frame
  only, how each player's MVP score was reached: their share of the group best
  for each metric, what their role's weight made of it, and the penalties for
  dying and for avoidable damage. It reads:

    1. Squizz (DAMA) 0.839 = dmg 0.69(96%) heal 0.00(7%) kick 0.11(71%)
       disp 0.08(100%) - died 0.00 - avoid 0.04(22%)

  Useful when the MVP is not who you expected and you want to see why.
