Stat related thingymabob

Okay first of all I'm not sure what to call this - and I don't want to continue this custom page layout without I know it can be feasibly done with some proboards magic

equestriads3.com/page/stat-comp-worker

That page includes a lot of detail in the 'What the codeymabob needs to do' box to provide information in a way that I hope is consistent with what's needed. 

I can create all the html, and am quite happy to provide an Id list (hence that being an area) I just don't know how possible it'd be.

BUMP - am willing to try and code this myself but would need a LOT of help to link everything together

Peter if you're interested in helping me when I'm asking a LOT of stupid (well I'm sure they look stupid) questions

No promises on when it will be finished, as it's quite a bit of work, and I'm rather burnt out this week from doing the Trophies plugin.

This looks amazing so far!!

I'm still trying to learn javascript! Apparently my learning style requires colours and doodles XD

[Peter]

Done some more work on this.  Still a way to go, and I have to say... it's boring lol.  Lots of fiddly bits.

The code is...messy with no comments, so I keep getting lost

I'm going to play "how much coding knowledge has stuck in my head" reading the github xP

Can you explain how the results should be worked out?

You have influential stats, and then the horse and rider has stats. How should those stats be compared against the influential stats?

[Boy_Wonder]

Okay I worked out the thingy for this with a lot of thinking.

stats that match influential stats should == 1 point each
stats that don't match should be equivalent to 0.5 points

So say influential stats are intelligence, Obedience and Flexibility they should be equal to full 20 points.
The remaining stats for the horse are equal in this situation to 10 points.

Horse A with Speed of 10, Stamina of 4, Intelligence 20, Obedience of 15, Flexiblity of 10, Braveness of 10 and Confidence of 20 would give a total score of 5+2+20+15+10+5+10=67 which should then be compared against the total stat outcome of 100. (eg 67/100).

It should then go from highest number of the total stats vs the full stat number to lowest match if that makes sense?

So Horse A got 67/100
Horse B got 97/100
Horse C got 15/100
Horse D got 50/100

the final outcomes would be
1st Horse B
2nd Horse A
3rd Horse D
4th Horse C

To work out the combined stats it should add the final of the horse and the final of the rider against the total of the two amounts combined.

So Rider stats that would be influential in this case would be Confidence and Perception.

As above the influential stats 1 point == 1 point. The non influential stats are worked out at 0.5.

So a rider would be scored out of 70

So a total score to compare against would == 170.

Please tell me if this doesn't make sense?

This has taken much longer that I wanted, and it being a very specific request for your forum...you owe me a nice cold beer.
