I haven't been posting a lot in these forums recently because I've been working with Microsoft's XNA game studio express. I think it's a great development tool, but I really miss the curvevalue() command from db. I'd like to write my own in c# but I'm not entirely sure how to do it since I can't think of how it works. So I'm wondering if someone actually knows how it works, or we can all just collaborate and pow-wow (brainstorm) until we have a pretty good guess as to how the function works.

I think it's something like this:

new value = current value + ((destination - current) / rate)

Wow based on my tests that seems entirely accurate. Well that was easy, thanks a lot!

yes but since the decimal is limited to so many places it eventually stops.
