Level Up

Level Ups are an important way to get magnets in the lategame of Scrap Clicker 2, but also exist in Scrap Collector and ScrapTD.



For a Level Up, the player needs an amount of Merges. The player starts at level 1 when starting the game for the first time, after a Restart, after gaining a star before 10 or resetting the level for gaining with x15 Stars or more. Every level needs more merges and so takes more time, but gives more magnets too. Directly before a level up ~60 or higher the Ad Event x2 Magnets is useful. It takes very long in the. For doubling the Bricks production the player needs level 2 (Every time 1 more).

The Level Ups are in the later game, especially after x100 Stars the main magnet source.

Faster Level Ups
The first Magnet upgrade called "Faster Level Ups" doesn't increase the amount of magnets per Level Up directly, but reduces merges required for a level up. With more level ups, magnets are also easier to get.

It has a max. level of 20. With levels high enough, you would get 6x more magnet/merge from level ups, from 1/6 at FLU0 to 1 at FLU20.

Formulas
The merges needed for any given merge level is $$40(1-\frac{L_F}{25})(1+(L_M-1)(\frac{3}{4}-\frac{L_F}{160}))$$,Where $$L_F$$ is the Level for Faster Level Ups, and $$L_M$$ is the Current Level for Merges, Making $$ 3+5L_M $$ the formula for the needed merges when Faster Level Ups is maxed. This can be further divided with Scrapyard v5, which is unlocked at x250 stars.

$$ 5(L_M+1) $$ is the formula for the magnets the player gains with the level up. The amount can get increased even further by leveling up the brick upgrade More Magnets II.

$$ Merges = 0.5(Level-1)*(16+5(Level-2)) $$ is the formula for the Merges needed to go to a certain level from level 1. Only with Faster Level Up lvl 20. Provided by James_The_Mario_Man.

$$ M=0.5(GL-SL)*((2*Mn)+D(GL-SL-1)) $$

where: This formula is used to calculate the needed merges between any two levels. Also provided by James_The_Mario_Man too.
 * M is the total merges needed
 * GL is Goal Level (The level you want to reach)
 * SL is the Start Level (Your current level)
 * Mn is the number of merges required to go up 1 level (This can be calculated with the 3+(l*5) formula)
 * D is the difference per level (For Faster Level Up, this would be 5)

Level table
The following table lists the levels until 15 and some further milestones.

In Scrap Collector
There are levels and so level ups in Scrap Collector too, but level 1 can only be reached when first time starting the game or restarting, because Bricks aren't available there. Level Ups aren't important in this game.

In ScrapTD
Since there are Player Levels in ScrapTD, there are level ups in that game too. Levels are very important for the gameplay, but also the reason why the system is broken for new players.
