About this converter
Namco 1979 scoring doubles everything in the dive and pays escort order on the Flagship. Blue sits at 30 in line and 60 diving, Purple at 40 and 80, Red at 50 and 100. The Flagship pays 60 in line, 150 diving solo, 200 with one escort, 300 with two escorts downed after it, and 800 when both escorts fall first. That perfect trio totals 1000 with the two Red escorts. A full 46 ship formation can net 4640 with perfect bonuses. Every figure here is the fixed arcade value from the strategy guide tables.
How to use it
Pick two scoring cases and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try 1 perfect Flagship against Blue Drones to see the twenty six to one trick shot.
Diving values double convoy values across all three colors. The 800 bonus needs the Flagship last after both escorts; killing it first pays only 300. Later waves speed up dives but never change point values. Later ports keep these figures and stay noted, not rowed. High score caps at 999990 on the original board.
